ASY START, HIGH CONTROL

URBAN & SUBURBAN provides a solid foundation for any sound designer to create a believable acoustic backdrop right out of the gate with common ambiences in varying intensities, daytimes and configurations. Easily accessible public places are captured in excellent quality, yet enough balance and distance to support the scene in the background and embed more prominent sounds into the mix.

COMMON vs UNUSUAL

While URBAN & SUBURBAN provides all the necessary basics, it also goes the extra mile by providing more isolated environments as well as recordings of special events that will come in handy when a change of scenery or dramaturgy is required. Various forms of traffic, groups of people, buildings, animals, wind and many more sound sources that make an appearance in this library ensure that you are able to craft an experience complete with the necessary components.

What we recorded

We set out to capture the most common public areas a city and its surroundings has to offer, such as airports, train stations, housing areas, construction sites and more.
For maximum flexibility, we kept the recordings generic enough to be used for similar locations while including variations and isolating sounds that stood out for more fine-tuning.
