Fresh and ever fascinating: With careful planning, patient recording and favourable luck, Sound Tracker® Gordon Hempton has created this fantastic ninth Quiet Planet nature library that will totally expand and deepen your understanding of natural sound spheres.
One of the most tricky biomes to record
What's inside
Included sounds - keywords
wetlands, nature, swamps, marsh, birds, insects, sanhills, breezes, goose, freshwater, water, frogs, lakes, laps, mosquitos, splashes, gurgles, boulders, fish, floppy, popping, thunderstorms, shopping, bubbly, waves, ponds, quacks, ducks, biospheres, wildlife, rainfalls, lakes, beaver, tail
Various standing water environments
As used here, WETLANDS include places with standing fresh water such as swamps, marshes, ponds, and lakes. In fact, it’s the water itself that creates these very special acoustic biospheres – as a propagator of sounds, causing them to travel further and louder due to surface reflections and temperature layers.
Rich wildlife symphonies
WETLANDS encloses recordings of wildlife and scenery at different day times and intensities. Are you looking for recordings of birds playing and hurrying across the water? Late evening frog concerts? Rainfall lapping on the lake? The slap of a beaver tail? Let these examples give you a fair idea of what this beautiful collection has on its great content list.
AVAILABLE IN 5.0 SURROUND
GET THE SURROUND EXPERIENCE
Surround ambiences are the closest approach to nature’s true and original vivid sound. Once given the opportunity to unfold their true acoustic potential, these fabulous 5.0 surround recordings will surely keep you from accepting any less in the future.
INCLUDING STEREO VERSION
Keeping the content of the already fantastic stereo version, you’ll gain the full spectrum of these fascinating regions plus an increase in flexibility and ways to shape the experience, taking your sound design to an even higher level!
Contains binaural stereo + 5.0 surround files
What we recorded
WETLANDS hold genuine treasures and outstanding sonic shapes: ever-changing with the arc of the sun, they are sonically diverse and offer great signal strength. At the same time, they are one of the trickiest habitats to record – all the more well worth the effort.
What's so special about this library?
You shouldn’t miss any of the Quiet Planet Nature SFX libraries but as the nature recording guru himself puts it: It’s a pilgrim’s journey fulfilled to listen to a wetland.
ABOUT GORDON HEMPTON - THE SOUND TRACKER®
BOOM Library is very proud to distribute the probably best nature recordings on the planet, the absolutely precious recordings of Gordon Hempton.
Environmental activist & Emmy-Winner
All of the nature sounds in the QUIET PLANET Nature SFX series were recorded by Gordon Hempton, The Sound Tracker®, Emmy-winner, author of One Square Inch of Silence, and environmental activist. Faced with habitat loss, species extinction and most of all unbridled noise pollution, Hempton has now turned his attention towards saving the world’s few remaining natural amphitheaters.
The highest appreciation for mother earth’s voice
Gordon Hempton cares very deeply about quiet. As The Sound Tracker® he has circled the globe three times over the last 35 years in pursuit of Earth’s rarest nature sounds — sounds which can only be fully appreciated in the absence of manmade noise. These recordings are available through BOOM Library’s QUIET PLANET series.
