Medieval combat sound effects featuring shield impacts, spear fights, and sword clashes, recorded using professional microphones to capture authentic weapon interactions and battle sequences in high-quality 24-bit audio.
This library focuses on shield-based sounds, with additional recordings of weapon-on-weapon fights.
Using our multi-mic configuration (comprising the Sennheiser MKH50, Røde NTG-3 and Line Audio CM4 Stereo Pair), our Audio Craftsmen recorded two professional swordsmen going head-to-head in multi-move melees using wooden shields, spears, swords and axes.
This library includes shield holds and push-offs, spear pole hits, spear scrapes to a shield edge, metallic sword clashes, axe clinks on a shield boss, a metal shield spinning on the ground and being picked up, spear hits on a wooden haft, sword slide cuts and much more! Perfect for TV, film, game and documentary projects requiring the exciting, natural tones of authentic historical weapons!
Sound have been separated into the following categories:
Shield Groundwork: Sounds of a wooden and metal shield dropping onto the floor, spinning on the floor and being picked up.
Shield Impacts: A huge variety of sounds where a spear, sword, wooden stick and axe hit different shield parts.
Spear Fights: Recordings of spear head and pole combat sequences.
Sword Impacts: Swords sliding off each other, being pressed against each other, and clashing together.
Each file contains multiple takes of the named action.
All sounds were recorded in 24Bit 192kHz, and have been tagged with extensive UCS metadata for ease of use.
