-Ellen Lurie

New indie SFX libraries
Ambiance - Atmosphere is a collection which includes 131 files and five types of atmosphere (drone, wind, eerie, natural and sci-fi). All sounds are looped and in two versions (1mn and 30sc). You can find also .ogg files (1mn) if you work with a game engine. The palette goes to winds, deep caves, sci-fi apartments and spaceships, bunkers, strange forests, abandoned places, inside a ship, etc. These sound files are generic enough to fit in
This library is the perfect way to start your bar scene, from noisy and busy to quiet and subdued. This has some South African flavour in the voices but can be used in any bar scene.
The impact of everyday sounds is often underestimated. Your project will come to life with this collection of common sounds around the house, from a flick of a LIGHT SWITCH, cutting PAPER, and a rumbling WASHING MACHINE, to squeaking and thudding FLOORS, humming VENDING MACHINES and squirting SOAP DISPENSERS.
