Highlights
The package takes you around the autumn and winter seasons in a large number of places with traffic, wind, rain, rollercoaster, skis, and many more – a very varied and useful collection.
Among the recordings you’ll find rain and wind scenes which are rare to find in an immersive format, where the microphone(s) have to be out in the free air to get the enveloping experience. We have developed equipment to accomplish this. Listen for yourself – because there’s nothing like standing in the middle of the rain without getting wet!
About the package
This is a Starter package featuring a selection of ambiences from the themed packages. 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
Nature is, in the Northern regions of the world, typically fairly quiet in the autumn and winter seasons – which you can hear in some of the exterior ambiences of this collection. But humans are not! That’s why you’ll hear more from us two-legged beings in the ambiences here.
The 50, highly realistic ambiences of Static Starter 1 are ready to serve as the canvas of your production. You can add narration, dialogue and action on top of these backgrounds – or use them on their own to put the listener in the right mood for what’s coming next.
What you get in this collection are scenes, not individual sound effects. However, many recordings (especially less dense scenes) contain single sounds that can be isolated and used on their own. Try it. When you find the right sound, the result can be very effective.
