The sound of complex mechanical processes is truly fascinating and it counts to the most interesting and most challenging sound effect tasks you can think of: Too many layered sounds and it becomes indefinable. Too less layered sounds and the SFX composition does not do justice to the often rich and tricky visual appeal. Working with absolutely clean and incisive source sounds is essential to achieve professional crisp and clean mechanical sound effects.

Our sound effects library MECHANICALS brings you everything you need to easily design the sound of mechanical processes – from simple clicking, sliding, rattling or snapping to the most complex mechanical procedures like opening complicated vault doors and treasure chests or clockworks. Your project features some huge machines, robots or powerful mechs? Then this SFX library is your creative tool box. We bring you the next essential addition to your daily sound design resources – as always delivered in top-notch audio quality that BOOM Library is renowned for.

The CONSTRUCTION KIT contains a huge amount of clean source files to design your own unique mechanical sound effects, the DESIGNED edition gives you an absolutely amazing set of pre-designed sound FX (you’ll LOVE those). The MECHANICALS BUNDLE contains both and it saves you money.

DESIGNED - STEREO & SURROUND:

DESCRIPTION
“Why haven’t we produced the MECHANICALS sound effects earlier? It would have saved us hours over hours during our daily sound design work.” That’s what we thought when we listened to the final sounds.

MECHANICALS DESIGNED will let you create fascinating and complex mechanical sound effects in just a few minutes. Complicated vault doors, secret mechanisms, clockworks, huge, small or tiny machinery, drawbridges, mechanical processes of any size, you name it. You don’t have time to edit single sound files to create a fitting mechanical sound process? No worries, we have already done this for you and we promise – these sounds will fit to your special needs.

SONIC CHARACTERISTICS
We created the mechanical sound effects with only small reverberation rooms to give you as much flexibility as possible. The dry and very close sounds can easily be integrated into other reverberation rooms and afterwards you can add as much reverb to your sounds as you need.

What You Get
MECHANICALS DESIGNED comes with 96 pre-designed and ready-to-use files organized by size (LARGE, MEDIUM, SMALL, TINY). Each file contains four often heavily alternating variations of the sound to give you more flexibility and less repetitive sound options. The sounds come as 96kHz/24bit WAV files, ready to further process them as you desire.

Using those sounds couldn't be easier: just drag and drop the designed SFX in your personal project and get absolutely convincing results instantly. All files contain extensive metadata to provide you with the fastest and easiest workflow possible.

Features:

• Library ships in 96kHz/24bit High Definition Audio
• High quality complex mechanical sound effects
• 96 royalty free state-of-the-art sound FX
• Effective workflow: well-grounded Soundminer Metadata

CONSTRUCTION KIT:

DESCRIPTION
MECHANICALS CONSTRUCTION KIT is an incredibly valuable and versatile set of sound FX. Use these high-quality source sounds to create your own mechanical sound masterpieces from scratch.

What You Get
To give you unlimited possibilities we included more than 2.000 single source sound FX in more than 560 files. Choose from a sheer endless amount 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.

What we recorded:
The recordings for MECHANICALS were very interesting. We searched quite some time to find a collector of really rare, old, strange and charming machines (i.a. a successor of the famous Enigma) that surprised us with some very unique sounds. Everywhere where mechanics took place we pointed our microphones towards it and captured the sound. We recorded really small and wispy mechanics as well as huge machines and old, almost forgotten slot machines from the 1900s like chocolate- and gaming machines, type writers, check writers and printing machines.

Features:
