What are they ?

Remote field recordings and unique location sound packs

These are sound packs for people that want to do their own EQ, compression, sound design and make their own loops.

The Raw Sample Packs contain audio files as close to their original recorded state as possible.

Some of the audio may have had minimal, or what I considered necessary, clean up work using Izotope RX Advanced

but otherwise they are without processing.

All current sample packs are recorded at 192k/32 bit - perfect for sound designers.

Some sample packs were recorded previous to 2021 and may be at a lower sample and/or bit rate.

All samples have added metadata using Soundly

I am using the Universal Category system for file naming

All packs are Single user, non attribution, royalty free license

Price

As a result of global lockdowns even more people are making music, art projects, films and games at home.

I have priced the Raw Sample Packs so that they are accessible to as many people as possible.

Each pack is €1 with the option to pay more if you can afford it.

I don’t buy into the myth that you have to pay a lot of money to get good quality products.

The Raw Sample Packs can be bought at Bandcamp and downloaded in a variety of formats, from lossless format to mp3

or you can buy the lossless files directly from this website - just scroll down.
