Home Sound Effects Train Life
$110
TRAIN LIFE is a detailed and in-depth collection of various Exterior Freight, Passenger Trains, and Railroad Ambiences.
Rumbling Freights roaring through the desert landscape, horns reverberating across the hills, passenger trains zipping by. The metal groan, creak, moan and clack, screech and bang of slow moving rail cars. Idles, Arrivals, Departures, Bys and a variety of Horns from Doppler to Close and Distant Perspectives.
You’ll also find a few old Electric Trains, a collection of Ambiences from Harbor Ports, Desert, and Railroad Yards, and Semi-Trucks rattling across the tracks.

For a majority of these recordings, Sennheiser MKH 8040 (ORTF) and DPA 4060 (NARROW A/B) microphones were used. When those weren’t around I went with a Sony PCM D-100 or Line Audio CM4.
METADATA
A great deal of time and effort went into the mastering of this library so the files can easily be dropped into any project. Very detailed Metadata has been provided so that all of the sounds are easily accessible. Photos have been embedded with each file to help out. UCS compliant, markers have been placed where applicable to make for quick navigation.

I’m a Sound Designer / FX Editor / Field Recordist working in Film and Television that specializes in creating high quality Sound Effects Libraries.
With A Sound Effect, Asbjoern has created a web site where our international community can browse, learn, and share the vast fruits of our labors. Together we are accelerating the very real potential power of sound design as a recognized art form.
A Sound Effect is an excellent resource for us to keep our animated films sounding unique and exciting.
A Sound Effect is a great asset to have discovered.
We found the site very easy to navigate, purchasing and downloads were effortless and the effects themselves are awesome! Asbjoern has done us all a great service.
We’ll definitely be back!
There are many great independent sound effect libraries available these days. The main problem with having so many, is keeping track of them!
A Sound Effect is a great hub, and is one of the first places I visit to look for sounds by category or genre. I started coming here to see if I could find libraries that I knew I had heard, but forgot WHERE I had heard them.
And in the process discovered libraries I never would have found otherwise. Great work! Keep it up!
We're always looking for new sounds to mangle, so when A Sound Effect had a holiday sale, I tried them out.
The purchase experience is really smooth and quick, and delivery is almost instant.
I'll definitely come back to them again in the future!
A Sound Effect is a wonderful resource for indie sound effects libraries. On top of that, it has some of the finest sound design, film and game audio interviews!
I often need very specific types of sounds so I've become a big supporter of independent recorders.
Until now I've always had to go to their individual websites. Now I can find them all in one place.
And, Asbjoern is great to work with!
A Sound Effect is a well curated boutique sound effects shop and a great place to find industry interviews and learning resources.
