SFX Independence – October 2013

October 25, 2013 by admin

A quick roundup of the independent sfx libraries to have hit our inbox this month.

Blastwave FX – Heroes & Villains

Blastwave FX have launched a competition to coincide with the release of their latest library collection, Heroes & Villains. You will need to call upon your most potent and deadly super power for a chance to win: entrants have to post a video of themselves reading a list of sound effects included in the library… in less than 60 seconds.

Check out the submission details on this YouTube video. Or, if you’re feeling tongue tied, you can pre-order your copy here.

 

Twisted Tools – Metamorph

Finally, but by no means least, for the next 96 hours Boom Library will be knocking 20% off the full price of their latest release. Winds of Nature is the second collaboration between Boom and award-winning sound ecologist Gordon Hempton, and this time it’s intense roars and desert winds on the agenda.

Winds of Nature is available at the discounted price of €119.00 until 29 October 2013. Additionally, it is also available from Hempton’s own Quiet Planet imprint.
