Boom Library Medieval Melee Bundle (Designed and Construction Kit) - Electronic Delivery

Product Description

From hammers crushing skulls to swords hacking limbs, the medieval period was one of the most brutal in history. Boom Library MEDIEVAL MELEE captures all the clashing of steel and raw, bone-crunching gore in one of Boom Library's largest-ever collections of sound effects.

All sounds were recorded either in the pristine sound environment of Boom Library's studios or onsite in the soot and heat of their sourced armourers. Sounds include various impacts, deflects, equips/un-equips, finishers and more.

The MEDIEVAL MELEE Bundle gives you the full range of clashing steel and bone-crunching gore as it contains both – the DESIGNED and the CONSTRUCTION KIT edition at a discounted price.

MEDIEVAL MELEE CONSTRUCTION KIT

EXTREMELY RAW

The ringing steel and bass-pounding thuds of this collection truly highlight the destructive power of medieval weaponry. With these sounds alone, the full, bloody brutality of combat can truly be felt, if not seen.

FURIOUSLY DETAILED

Boom used their trusted Sennheiser, Sanken CO-100K and Schoeps mics – to capture all the brutal, crushing detail of these cold iron masterpieces.

SAVAGELY CRISP

Medieval combat has never sounded more real. Boom traveled across Europe in search of a massive variety of weapons to slam into wood, steel, and more. They even used analogous materials to recreate the sounds of weaponry but in a much bigger, larger-than-life way.

MEDIEVAL MELEE DESIGNED

CLANGING IRON

The awesome, deadly power of 10 different weapons and 2 shields – from axes to swords to war hammers is in your hands. Each weapon comes with 12 different files and each shield with 8 different files. Bodies and tails also come in separate files, to allow you to customize the audio wrath.

LAYERED STEEL

Fine Damascus steel was made with up to 300 layers of steel. Though not quite as complex as these notable blades, our sound designers cleaved into their creativity to forge new sounds and capture the truest edge of each weapon.

BRUTAL BLADES

The GORE sounds of stabs and slices bring out the complete sound for the Designed pack. Perfect for video games where total immersion has become a requirement. These sounds have already been given the full, carnal power necessary to create that full Hollywood sound and are ready to use in your project without any further editing.

WHAT WAS RECORDED?

Boom searched across Europe for the best armourers they could find. When that epic journey ended, they even dug through scrapyards and archeological sites. All this to capture as realistically as possible the sounds of medieval close-quarters combat. Ranged weapons were not included, only the raw brutality of hand-held steel and iron.

For each weapon category there are a variety of sounds, including whooshes, deflects, equips/unequips, finishers, impacts, impacts, and more.

WHAT MAKES MEDIEVAL MELEE SPECIAL?
