January 28th, 2011 by Janice Brown

This week, NYC’s Pro Sound Effects released the Foundation Sound Effects Library produced by game sound design expert Stephan Schütze.

The 22 GB Foundation Sound Effects Library is delivered on a USB 2.0 external hard drive

Currently comprised of 16,006 sound effects, The Foundation library is the result of Schütze’s virtually non-stop sound effects recording odyssey through Australia, Asia and North America starting in 2005 and continuing to this day. At 22 GB, The Foundation Sound Effects Library is delivered on a USB 2.0 external hard drive, includes sound effects search software, and free sound effects updates digitally delivered every 3 months.

According to PSE, the Foundation Sound Effects Library contains a wealth of contemporary sound effects recordings organized in categories such as animals, ambiences, vehicles, industrial machinery, domestic sounds, weather and other audio elements from which a limitless number of sound events can be crafted. As a leading consultant for interactive audio engine FMOD, Schütze consulted with professional game designers while cultivating Foundation to fit their needs, and has used the library extensively in his lectures and in various audio productions.
