About the package
This is a Starter Add-on package featuring the remaining selection to upgrade the Mini version to Full, and contains selected ambiences from the themed packages. You can, of course, also purchase this on its own.
You can typically find different versions of the same or similar scenes in the themed packages – along with these files. Now, we don’t want you to pay twice for the same material. Therefore, Starter packages earn you extra discount points towards purchasing the individual themed packages. The discount is credited to your account, if you create one, where you can always check your accumulated discount.
About the content
Recorded in two different domestic houses and a number of exterior locations during all four seasons, these action sequences and their sound sources provide you with audio to use both as descriptive ambiences for many different narratives, and as single sound sources in 3D surroundings.
The 30, highly realistic ambiences of Action Starter 1 Add-on are ready to add 3D action to your production.
