Ready, aim...FIRE! Pull the trigger on this one-of-a-kind antique gun library! Using a multi-mic configuration (comprising the Sennheiser MKH50, Røde NTG-3 and Line Audio CM4 Stereo Pair) our Audio Craftsmen recorded a professional armourer manipulating two authentic 19th century muskets. The result is a carefully edited collection of intimate sounds, including opening and closing the frizzen, dry firing, trigger fidgeting, dropping and dragging the gun on various surfaces, loading with ramrods, blowing into the barrel, hands sliding and twisting across the gun, slamming the stock, grabbing the barrel and more! Our multi-mic set-up means for most of the actions you can enjoy different perspectives while designing technical scenes. Perfect for Film, TV, documentary and game projects that feature flintlock or caplock muskets, rifles or pistols. This library is a real Foley treat! Sounds have been separated into the following categories: General Handling: Hand twists, grabs and slides.Scraping: The stock (butt) of the gun scraping across wood and cobbles.Loading: Actions involving the ramrod and barrel.Mechanisms: Manipulation of cock, caplock, frizzen and trigger.Groundwork: Anytime the gun is in contact with concrete, earth, sand and wood surfaces. Includes the gun dropping, falling and being picked up, as well as the stock slamming onto the ground. Each file contains multiple performances of the named action. All sounds were recorded in 24Bit 192kHz, and have been tagged with extensive UCS metadata for ease of use.
