Boom Urban Explosions Bundle

RECORDED IN REAL URBAN ENVIRONMENTS

Why Urban Explosions? Most explosions in movies, games or trailers don’t happen out on a plain field, they happen in urban environments with buildings around them that shape the character of the explosion sound in a very specific way. The special thing about our urban explosions sound FX library is that it has been recorded in a real urban environment, so you get super-realistic reverbs and tails instead of artificially processed post-production reverbs or tails that don’t sound urban at all. For the sake of completeness, they also recorded a non-urban explosion on a plain field, so you’re covered here as well.

MULTI-CHANNEL RECORDINGS WITH UP TO 42 CHANNELS

They had a lot of microphones with us and they placed them in all possible positions around the explosion spot. They have very close mics, close mics, medium distance mics, distant mics, mics in front of buildings, mics behind buildings, mics inside of buildings. Each explosion in the URBAN EXPLOSIONS CONSTRUCTION KIT comes with a minimum of 24 channels, including a 4 channel ambisonic file, so you can simply drag all channels to your DAW and easily mix the sound exactly as you want.

SWEETENERS

You’re looking for a more supernatural sound or your mix misses a bit of impact, smack, punch, tail, cackling, rumbling or character? No problem, the CONSTRUCTION KIT has a lot of great high-quality sweeteners that will easily enrich your mix in the desired way.

WHAT THEY RECORDED

Finding an urban environment where they can detonate a pile of explosives wasn’t easy to accomplish. It had to be an abandoned area with buildings that are constructed and placed as in a modern city. After some intensive research they found a place that was just perfect. They found it in the former USSR. To get the most out of the recordings, they picked 15 interior and outdoor detonation spots and recorded the explosions with up to 42 microphone channels.

WHAT’S SO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS LIBRARY?

URBAN EXPLOSIONS has been recorded in association with BATTLEFIELD V and thus with the audio team of EA / DICE that is responsible for such great games as BATTLEFIELD, STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT, MIRROR’S EDGE. The cooperation was wonderful and they’re happy to finally offer you the outcome of their recording session with URBAN EXPLOSIONS.
