Sound Ideas General HD Sound Effects

The General HD Sound Effects Collection is the result of 3 very busy years for our engineers. We sent them out into the field with state-of-the-art recording equipment and super high quality microphones, and told them to start all over again to create a completely new General sound effects library. The collection features brand new recordings - all originally made at 24 bit / 96 kHz - so you get the very best in crisp, clear, high definition sound in The General HD Sound Effects Collection.
