Get the first multichannel source recording weapon library in the world! This Construction Kit ships as a complete 2 DVD set full of basic source sounds. All of the recordings on this disc were recorded in 96 kHz, 24-bit. To provide you with the fastest and easiest workflow possible all files contain extensive metadata including distances and microphones used. No matter what weapon sound style you are looking for: you can mix the multichannel recordings exactly the way you need. Check out the demo on the right to learn about what you can make out of one single pistol shot from our “Guns – Construction Kit”. Possibilities of editing are vast due to the usage of high-frequency microphones at this high definition recording. This source material will give you full control over any firearm you ever wanted to design.

Hi, Axel
In the pack, all those samples have been rendered in PT or they are raw and dry takes? I’d like to have the raw and dry takes. If the PT sessions are included in the pack, that will be perfect to me.
Hi,
It’s really interesting! We use almost the same plugins. NomadFactory fx is my favor:-)
What’re the recorder and console you used for the recording,please?
Thanks!
@ Digimonk: we used a 744T with two MP-1 and a 788T.
The Construction-Kit contains cropped and cleaned samples, no dynamics are applied. So they are useful raw and absolutely dry. You will get one mono .wav file for each channel, if that is the question ;-) No, ProTools Session is not included.
