Surge by Beat

Movie score composers watch out! ModeAudio has put together an attractive bundle of cinematic ambient samples with Surge, which comes in at over 1.6 GB. In terms of content, there are 40 Atmospheric Sounds, 30 Drones, 34 Sound Effects and 44 Textures for your ears. The duration of the sounds ranges from one second to almost 1.5 minutes. The textures are creepy, rather gloomy and monotonous, sometimes distorted and only rarely turbulent. However, these form a good basis to build atmospheres or sound effects on, and craft the perfect soundscape. For the atmospheres, a lot of reverb was used to simulate large spaces and dimensions. You can also sink into the depths of the oceans or distant galaxies. The surreal sound effects fit very well.

Verdict

Surge turns your own studio into a sonic film set. If you don‘t have much time to build your own soundscapes, you‘ll find enough material here to build up dynamics and drama.
