We differentiate between sound FX and sound file. Each sound file can contain multiple variations of a sound (up to 6 variations based on the product).
That way, we assure to provide you with different styles of a single sound in one file instead of multiple files, keeping your database nice and clear and speeding up your workflow as you have multiple variations available by dragging only one file to your audio host software.
Having multiple variations of a single sound effect also guarantees you a less repetitive overall soundscape when using the effect multiple times in a row or over and over again in several projects.
The STEREO edition contains the recordings in binaural stereo, meaning they reflect a stereo image on speakers and a surround image on headphones.
The STEREO & SURROUND edition contains all files from the STEREO edition plus the same recordings in 5.0 interleaved surround files. The track layout is: L • R • C • Ls • Rs
The STEREO & SURROUND edition contains all files from the STEREO edition plus the same sounds in 5.1 surround files.
The track layout is: L • R • C • LFE • Ls • Rs
Sometimes, a specific topic doesn’t offer as many different source recordings or designed sounds to make it a comprehensive Original BOOM Library package. That’s why we have our compact Micro-BOOM packs which contain sounds that received the same careful recording, cleaning and editing as our Original BOOM Library sound effects for a very low price.
A CONSTRUCTION KIT generally contains thousands of sounds as raw as possible and only as processed as needed for a specific topic, perfectly organized to make it easy for you to use them. Carefully selected, those sounds give you all the freedom and possibilities you need to design your own sounds within the given topic from scratch. For some topics it is difficult to provide recordings only, so you will find some pre-processed or synthesizer based sounds in those collections as well, but still only basic material, since we don’t want to offer it compressed to the maximum or similarly mutated. After all, the CONSTRUCTION KIT serves as such for ourselves, namely in the following process of creating the respective DESIGNED collection.
The DESIGNED collections feature fully designed sounds which originate from the CONSTRUCTION KIT stock. The sounds are of a specific topic and ready to use: mixed, processed, compressed, mastered etc. They can be easily put into all kind of projects, for example trailers, commercials, movies, TV shows and so forth or used as in-game sounds. This collection provides a quick and easy workflow and you can still use those sounds as a basic and layer, stretch or otherwise adjust them to suit your specific needs.
The bundle is the best option as it contains both, the DESIGNED and the CONSTRUCTION KIT at a reduced price.
