MECHANICALS CONSTRUCTION KIT
MECHANICALS – A TREASURE CHEST WITH MORE THAN 2.000 SINGLE SOURCE RECORDINGS
In order to provide unlimited possibilities, they included more than 2.000 single source sound FX in more than 560 files. Choose from a sheer endless number of CLICKS, SNAPS, MOVEMENTS, COMPLEX SOUND SEQUENCES, RATTLING, ROLLING, SLIDING, SPRINGS, TURNS & SWEETENERS.
Different sizes, multiple variations and a huge palette of different machines and mechanism sounds give you full flexibility to enter a new world of outstanding sound effects.
SONIC CHARACTERISTIC: AS DRY AND CLOSE AS POSSIBLE
They recorded the mechanicals sound effects with only small reverberation rooms to give you as much flexibility as possible. Therefore, the dry and very close sounds can easily be integrated into other reverberation rooms. After that, you can add as much reverb to your sounds as you need.
WHAT THEY RECORDED
The recordings for MECHANICALS were very interesting because they searched quite some time to find a collector of really rare, old, strange and charming machines (i.a. a successor of the famous Enigma). In the end, they were surprised by some very unique sounds. Everywhere where mechanics took place, they pointed their microphones towards it and captured the sound. They recorded tiny and wispy mechanics as well as huge machines and old, almost forgotten slot machines from the 1900s. For instance, chocolate- and gaming machines, type writers, check writers and printing machines.
WHAT’S SO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS LIBRARY?
The sound of complex mechanical processes is truly fascinating, and it counts to the most interesting and most challenging sound effect tasks they can think of: Too many layered sounds and it becomes indefinable. Not enough layered sounds and the SFX composition does not do justice to the often rich and tricky visual appeal. Therefore, working with absolutely clean and incisive source sounds is essential to achieve crisp and clean mechanical sound effects.
That’s why they recorded each sound as close as possible to capture a very detailed and direct sound image. Above all, giving you the best possible source material to work with.
