Human sound effects for everything a body does apart from talking. Breaths, sighs, coughs and yawns, then grunts of effort all the way up to full battle screams. Footsteps over concrete and metal, walking or sprinting. Then the quiet stuff, people shifting and breathing in a room, which is what makes a church or a courtroom feel occupied. Mouth clicks and pops too.

Human sounds have to be spot on, from the rasp of a real cough to the weight of a real footstep. The vocal libraries were performed by male and female actors close to the mic, so a character can strain and scream in a consistent voice. The footstep collections go deep, with shoe types recorded on Hardwood and harder floors, plus moves like the Pivot and the Scuff that make a walk feel real. The room presence recordings are the clever bit. They're the sound of people being there without doing anything, useful under a sermon or a tense meeting. Battle crowds sit at the other extreme. Games and films burn through human sounds quicker than most.
