Scream Collection, New SFX Library of Bottle Rocket FX

Bottle Rocket FX has introduced Scream Collection, a new sound effects package, featuring 441 vocal effects.

Introducing the Scream Collection (A Tribute To Wilhelm). This library pays homage to the infamous Wilhelm Scream first heard in the film Distant Drums as well as dozens, if not hundreds, of other films. This compilation includes 441 vocal effects ranging from startled gasps to all out screams.

I enlisted a few family members, friends and colleagues to head into the booth and leave their inhibitions at the door. What started as a, “screams only” collection, soon expanded into a larger body of work due to some of the stuff they were doing in between takes, be it laughter or snorts. Once I decided to do more than just screams, I came up with a laundry list of vocal effects I wanted everyone to try. I was impressed with their willingness to let it all out, although nobody was willing to let me videotape them while they were doing it. Some of the more comedic sounds were just too good to leave out. I also gained a new appreciation for tea and honey after recording my personal screams.

These vocal effects were all recorded and mastered at 24bit/192kHz, to allow you to pitch, stretch and squeeze to help create a wide variety of effects going beyond just simple screams. 24bit/96kHz files included as well. All of these sound effects are metadata-embedded wav files that can be read by Pro Tools, Soundminer and Basehead.
