Highlights
This package contains real cave recordings with water drops, streams and reverberation. It also takes you around the spring and summer seasons in a large number of places with bird song, bees, wind, rain, thunder, traffic, people, and many more – a very varied and useful collection.
Among the recordings you’ll find some beautiful recordings of Nature’s sounds, as well as the lively sounds of a busy city.
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
In the spring and summer, Nature is full of sounds – the most prominent being those made by birds. But humans are also busy being out and about – all of which you’ll find recorded here.
The 50, highly realistic ambiences of Static Starter 2 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.
