Sound Design

We offer a full sound design service from supplying batch sound effects to track laying full motion video.

With over 25,000 sfx in our library we can supply the right sounds for your game or project. If we don't have it then we go out and record it.

So what does this sort of thing cost........

COST: For a hand selected library sound effect which has been cropped and normalised the typical cost would be £10 per sound effect. A processed version will be an extra £5. Processed samples can make a game come to life !

Depending on what the game requires we will supply the effects to suit your needs. If you listen to the 2 gun samples below you will hear how different a sample can sound once its been processed.

CUSTOM SOUND EFFECTS - Sound Design

Not all sound effects cost £10- £15. If we need to design a sound effect that is specific to your requirements then we need to charge for the time it takes to create the finished sample. Our Hourly rate is £35 per hour. This includes sweepers and platform game HUD and PowerUp Beeps etc.

If you listen to the following sound effect you will here that it is made up of 2 marching samples (Left, Right) and a snare drum. The samples have then been sequenced into a short jingle

Sound Design Example HERE The cost of this sound effect would have been £35 including the 2 samples.

IF YOU NEED SOUND FX, PLEASE EMAIL US AND WE WILL BE HAPPY TO DISCUSS YOUR REQUIREMENTS.
