Overview
From the mind of Academy Award®-winner Mark Mangini (Dune) comes another one-of-a-kind collection: Between the Notes. Created entirely from musical instruments, human voices, and percussive sources, this library delivers rich source material for almost any sound design need. Whether you’re cutting sound for scenes with musical instruments, designing tonal or rhythmic sound effects, or exploring new moods and textures, this is the sound effects library to reach for.
Sources include orchestral strings, brass, and woodwinds; vigorous explorations of piano, guitar, and cello; human voices; and a variety of percussion ranging from chimes to foot stomps. Ear-catching selections include lonesome shakuhachi flutes with reverb, droning didgeridoos, metallic tongue drums, and monastic-style chanting. On the realism side; elements like piano tuning, guitar string scrapes, and melodic phrases make excellent background sweeteners. Various drums, percussion, and body slaps are great for designing unique impacts.
“I use musical instruments regularly as source material for sound design. The joy for me is finding unique ways to elicit sounds from instruments we know and recognize but in ways we might not recognize, placing them in a nether zone that felt familiar yet new, tonal but not melodic.” - Mark Mangini
