Sounds Of War

Have you ever wished that you could include these evocative sounds in your productions -

A Hurricane fighter with its straining Rolls Royce Merlin engine taking off from a forward strip in the Battle of Britain

The heavy fire of an armoured assault as Panzer Grenadiers, firing machine pistols and flame throwers in support of the Waffen-SS assaulting the forward positions

Stukas screaming down on zig-zagging convoys while Royal Naval gunners throw up a constant wall of anti-aircraft fire

Flying Fortresses thundering down their runways, desperately hauling their full bombloads into the air and heading for the industrial heartland of Hitler's Germany

Boots on cobblestones as British infantrymen fight through northern France

The crack of rifle fire and the rattle of heavy machine guns as German defenders put up a desperate defence, before being overrun by Allied tanks in support of a common cause?

Since most wartime newsreels were shot without sound, these sound effects had to be tracked down and salvaged from a wide variety of archival sources across Europe. All effects were then digitally enhanced through cedar processing and/or mixed into the longer scenario ambiences by skilled engineers with state-of-the-art equipment.

Sounds of War - an authentic and historic gallery of period audio - single weapon, equipment and tank effects, aircraft sounds and effects, short scenario ambiences and full battle sequences (including an aerial attack, dogfights and an armoured assault). This unique one-off collection is now available on CD - it's your chance to own a complete World War II sound effects archive.
