What’s Inside
THIS IS NOT A DRILL!
You can never have too many tools for sound design, whether rounding out a scene or layering and hammering out the perfect impact. This library is packed with over 250 files of manual tools, like hammers, ratchets, and screwdrivers, and manual motions, like chopping wood and smashing stones. Nearly 3 GB of sounds will add that extra umph, boom, or crack to give any sound that missing edge. You can be sure you’ll always have the sharpest tool in the shed.

What we recorded
We emptied our TOOLBOX to find everything we could to record: Hammers, Axes, Saws, Straps, Car Jacks, and more. Using a XY-Setup of two Sennheiser MKH 8040s and a MS-Setup with a Sennheiser MKH8050 and MKH30, we captured every rattle and smash we could make while keeping the recording as dry as possible.

What's so special about this library?
This is a complete set of tools: We left nothing out from your grandpa’s shed. We’ve pulverized these tools in every way imaginable, from how they were meant to be used to possibly breaking some safety regulations, just to capture the right, pristinely dry sound, so that you can do what you need to do safely from your own home or office.
