What is the Carnivals and Funfair Sound Effects Library?
The new Carnivals and Funfairs sound library samples the exciting atmosphere of both big and small fairgrounds:
- Midway game sound effects (crown and anchor, shoot-the-star BB gun game, ring toss, more)
- Amusement park ride machinery sounds (Tilt-A-Whirl, roller coaster, Ring of Fire, others)
- Fairground crowd ambiences (midway, food building, exposition building, farm building, more)
How the Carnivals and Funfairs Sound Library Helps You
Making a theme park sim video game and need mechanical ride sound clips? Recreating the sound of Six Flags, Santa Monica’s Pacific Park, or the Jersey Shore for your film? Need busy crowds for expositions, conventions, or other large interior spaces?
The Carnivals and Funfairs sound library includes comprehensive coverage of sideshow alley ambiences. The package highlights crowd sounds, ride machinery, games, barkers, and more, each with multiple takes from a variety of perspectives.
Not every project will feature a funfair with hundreds of thousands of people. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. The sound library was created with diverse scope to include recordings from sideshow alleys in both metropolises and also small towns.
Designed to compliment Airborne Sound’s earlier Fairground Sound Effects release, the Carnivals and Funfairs sound library uses a fresh sonic texture. Employing the smooth, detailed sound of DPA 4060 microphones in AB stereo, the recordings replicate real-world hearing with realistic soundstage.
These miniature high-fidelity microphones allowed recording in difficult locations completely unnoticed by fairgoers to ensure rich, authentic recordings in the middle of the action.
