The Recordist has announced Ultimate Fire SFX Library, a new huge SoundBox Pro SFX Library loaded with over 700 fire sound effects. It’s coming December 15, 2010.

Here is my teaser video for my next Ultimate SFX library. This video was really a gas to make (No pun intended). I re-lived all those scorching hot moments standing within 4 feet of large fire bursts, massive slash piles burning and white hot embers while trying not to melt my microphone. Sometimes I smelled the smoke as I was editing the audio and video. Very strange brain tricks happening. Ahhh, I really love the smell of kerosene also! Not.

This insane collection includes over 700 fire sound effects recorded over the last four years on my ranch and at remote logging sites in North Idaho.

Recording set-up: Sound Devices 702, Sanken CSS-5, Fostex FR-2, Audio Technica AT-835ST, Sony PCM-D1 recording at 24Bit/96kHz.

Performances and sounds:

• Stove oil, diesel, kerosene and gasoline bursts
