DESCRIPTION

Close your eyes and imagine the manifold sound atmosphere of medieval places. Imagine farms with cackling chickens, the mowing of sheep, the noise of trotting horse hooves, the opening and closing of old doors and an axe chopping some wood in the background. In the cities and castles, imagine the echoes of distant persons, the shouting of street vendors, the rattling of iron chains and the constant hammering of the blacksmith. We have recorded the sound of this historical era for you with many facets.

Let’s get on a time travel to the medieval times with hundreds of authentic source sounds from that era. Our MEDIEVAL LIFE – CONSTRUCTION KIT holds a multitude of medieval sound effects to create an exciting audio experience for all the gloomy or bright medieval affairs you have in mind. 

SONIC CHARACTERISTICS

MEDIEVAL LIFE – CONSTRUCTION KIT is a real treasure when it comes to quickly designing the background ambience of a movie or game scene. As the sounds are meant to create a convincing background soundscape, the source sounds were recorded in distance to the microphone to capture the original medieval environments and to provide you with a nice open room environment right from the start without having to add complex synthetic reverb or impulse responses. 

WHAT WE RECORDED

Most of the sounds were recorded in authentic medieval environments in Germany. We went out to visit medieval heritage sites like ruins and castles. For the market place recordings we went to farmers markets around the cathedral in Mainz, Germany that was built around 975 A.D. A perfect place to capture the spirit of medieval market places.

On our trip we recorded the hard life of people living in this era. We recorded medieval farm sounds like animals, mechanics of old tools, hurly-burly on marketplaces, blacksmiths hammering metal and working with wood, church bells, voices and a lot more.
