    The candid quality of these sounds also makes them perfect for enhancing realistic animal moments in Film, TV and Game productions.

  • Aircraft - Jet/Propeller Plane Sound Effects Blimp Airship Play Track 61+ sounds included $39

    Rare close-up recordings of a blimp engine (2x Goodyear with 154 kW) .

    A unique propeller motor with a well-known and reconizable sound.

    I was able to spend a short time during an engine test with one of the few airships in the world, a WDL blimp in Essen, Germany. The engine performed three different constant RPMs and all the transitions plus some additional rev-ups. I was able to record the noises with up to three mono mics (one on the engine and the other two a bit further away) and a stereo set up (onboard in the cabin most of the time). Check the file list for details.

    In addition I recorded one ambience with a fly-by and the cabin doors opening and closing, some knobs being pushed and the air valve operating.

    All files meta-tagged and use the UCS naming system.

  • Door Sound Effects Wood and Metal Creaks Play Track 344 sounds included $29

    Introducing a bold new take on Wood and Metal Creak SFX that will help you bring your project to the next level.

    As sound enthusiasts, we were keen to bring something new to the table for this category of sound…and so a novel recording approach was created to produce the sounds for this library. Due to the incredibly subtle (and not so subtle!) audio details embedded in creak sounds, a recording environment is required with particularly effective sound isolation. At the same time, a high level of control over the variety of surface type and performances of the creaks themselves is needed. Our MacGyver recording engineer Phil found a solution that produced a setup within which we had isolation, control, and variety… the “Creak Box”.

    The Creak Box is able to capture the most detailed essence of most resonant surface types, and has multiple stages of tension with which the performer of the creaks can play with. Happy with the source sounds that were being created – which is always the most important stage from beginning to end – we found that a multi mic rig was needed. To really get the depth and detail of these creaks we found that the best results were achieved by using a spatially tweaked-up microphone setup using the contact mic LOM Geophon, a pair of cardioid Sennheiser Mkh8040s, and a shotgun Rode NTG3. The best recordings always come from testing multiple mic positions, and experimenting with input levels and mic positions; this sound library brings you only our best takes.

    As sound designers, we always need new, better, varied material. We want to feel excited by and connected to the sounds we use – enjoy and make it yours!

    Wood: Old wood stairs, doors, floors, ships, houses, twisting and bending wood, chairs, tables, fences, and more.

    Metal: Big and small doors, small squeaks, huge resonant duct and convector surfaces, chairs, benches, wires, bedsprings, and more.

    (The video bellow contains added room tone to show some of the sounds in context.)

  • Environments & Ambiences Rain Designer – Int, Ext and Single Drops Play Track 143 sounds included, 200+ mins total $54

    This library features a broad variety of rain sounds.

    The single drops section is the heart of the library. There is a big amount of drips, that can be used to sweeten your rain ambience layers but also to design rain from scratch f.e. with software like Sound Particles or granular samplers. I recorded three kind of isolated dripping sounds in a studio setting:

    Single Drops – Isolated tiny to bigger drops / splashes on plenty of surfaces, from glass, dirt, grass (real & artificial), wood, stone, concrete, water, cloth, plastic to metal and more

    Multiple Drops – Clusters of water drops on various surfaces

    Pour – Small extracts of poured water on various surfaces

    Artifical Sweetener – two kind of Rainmaker and several frying tempeh (vegan variation of bacon)  sounds, that add movement and wetness to your rain layers

    If you are working with Sound Particles, this library includes a couple of projects, that you can use as is or as a starting point to create your own rain with included samples. That way you can fit your rain sounds to the exact intensity, gusts and dynamics of your picture or pictured rain.

  • Cinematic & Trailer Sound Effects Impacto: Morphed Acoustics Play Track 294 sounds included $49

    IMPACTO contains a wide variety of sound types, ranging from trailer impacts and granular clouds to drones and full-fledged melodic tracks, which can be used as music stems in movies or games.

    Most of source sounds were recorded using Sanken CO-100K ultrasonic microphone, which can capture frequencies up to 100 kHz, to get the most interesting sound foundation.

    For this purpose I recorded various objects and textures (metal, glass, wood), as well as traditional acoustic instruments, strings, large gongs, singing bowls, didgeridoo, percussion, female vocals, chanting and etc. These sounds were further heavily processed with plug-ins, custom Max/MSP patches and external effects to get strange and unusual results.

    The library also contains Source folder with recordings that are almost not processed (apart from pitch shift).

    As a bonus, all sounds are integrated into Kontakt instruments with user-friendly interface and several effects (LP filter with resonance, AR envelope, three-band equalizer, reverb, delay and chorus).

  • Environments & Ambiences Industrial Exteriors I Play Track 29 sounds included, 98 mins total $26

    UCS-compliant, ambient recordings from various industrial sites, including the port of Aarhus with its bulk cargo and container terminals. Most of the sounds are quite generic though, and could be used in many different contexts. Some recordings are teeming with activity, while others feature deserted, yet humming and droning, industrial landscapes. Lots of HVAC with fans and pumps. Containers are moved, gravel is unloaded, engines are running. Very little wind, and hardly any legible speech. A few of the sounds are cut as seamless loops.

    Most of the sounds were originally recorded with a Sennheiser MKH60/30 M/S setup. A few sounds appear in both mono and stereo versions, where the stereo version are X/Y derived from the M/S source files and the mono versions are simply the Mid channel. I did this, because most people seem to prefer X/Y files for post-work, rather than M/S – but a down-mix of X/Y to mono would be inferior to using the original Mid-mic signal. 4 of the sounds were recorded with a quasi binaural setup. All sounds were captured in Aarhus, Denmark.

    WHAT SOUND PROFESSIONALS SAY:

    Victor Mercader – AAA Sound Designer (Apex Legends)
    “I find myself continuously using Slava’s SFX libraries to blend it’s pristine and detailed sound designs into my own sounds. They always add that cutting edge I am missing and make my sound designs more unique and pristine.”

    Enos Desjardins – Sound Designer/Sound Effects Editor (Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning, Black Mirror)
    “Slava has been creating some really cool libraries which I find myself using time and again. Really high quality recordings to start with but then the cool processing he has used for example in his cinematic whoosh libraries really stand out. They are not just your standard generic whoosh sounds but are loaded with character and have a unique feel to them that is really fresh and cuts through in the nicest of ways.”

    Bjørn Jacobsen – AAA Sound Designer (CyberPunk 2077, HITMAN, DARQ)
    “Slava has for several years made high quality sound effects for me to play with. I use his sound libraries across multiple projects as lego blocks of my creations.”

    Ginno Legaspi – SoundBytes Music Magazine‎
    “‘Evil Strings Tortured Wires’ is an all-scary affair with plenty of really good, nightmarish, imaginative sounds from authentic materials, like double bass, dulcimer strings and metal wires. Sound-wise, this sample pack is clean and carefully recorded. The editing and processing of sounds is top notch, with sound design techniques applied very professionally. Overall, very gritty and not for the faint of heart.”

    Yarron Katz – AAA Composer and Sound Designer
    “Slava makes some wonderful libraries. He’s relatively new on the scene and his libraries have come to critical acclaim. He takes some general ideas, like whooshes and he injects some extremely revolutionary and innovative ideas to them, so you’re not getting another whoosh library – you’re getting something very unique, very fresh. He brings some wonderful ideas to the table.”
