Real contractors performing construction tasks provide authentic sound effects spanning drilling, hammering, glass breaking, tool handling, and sawing, captured in high-quality 24Bit 96kHz format.
Our Audio Craftsmen followed tradesmen during a day of work to capture a vast variety of hammering, drilling, shattering glass, dropping and handling tools, pulling tape, sawing and operating power tools. These meticulously edited sounds are perfect for designing destructive elements or building up realistic soundscapes for your film, TV, documentary and game projects.
Sounds have been separated into the following categories:
Drilling: A huge selection of drills recorded from various perspectives. Features steady drilling at various speeds and shorter, quicker bursts.
Glass: A satisfying selection of glass shattering and breaking. Perfect for literal and metaphorical use.
Hammering: Hammers being used on various surfaces with different pressures. Ranging from single impacts to successive hits.
Misc: Sounds of miscellaneous movements and tools. Includes the handling of different materials (metal, plastic, etc.) and picking up and setting down of sundry items.
Saws: Recordings of a circular saw at different speeds and perspectives, as well as the steady rhythms of a hand saw.
Scraping: Tools being used to scrape surfaces.
Tape: Perspective recordings of tradesmen pulling painter’s tape from a roll.
Tools: Clinks and clanks of tools being handled.
Wood: A short collection of wood being dropped and handled.
All sounds were recorded in 24Bit 96kHz, and have been tagged with extensive UCS metadata for ease of use.
