File Effects features over 250 sound effects on 10 CDs most of which are in the three-minute duration range. Some of the fabulous textures you'll find range from modern computer offices and train stations to footsteps and squeaky wooden floors, Hong Kong harbour hooters, traffic, moaning wind, and as you would expect, wonderful interior ambiences. File Effects has a distinctly European flavour and why not? Paul Hamblin and Mark Bygrave are two of the finest British sound recordists, and they take the time to record sound right! The collection categories include Skylines, Interiors and Exteriors, the Elements, Travel, Transportation, Industy, and so much more. Paul and Mark have often said that it's not easy going after great sounds. An airplane flying over at the wrong time, or a car passing by when you've captured the perfect spot for recording bird calls can create a totally unusable end result - so you start it again and get it right. File Effects is a wonderful collection of completely new and original ambiences that every sound professional's collection can't be without.
