Soundiron have released Snack, a Kontakt library of animal sounds, available as a FREE download.
Soundiron founder Mike Peaslee’s cat Snack is a rather vocal and demanding studio companion. Over the years, Chris and Gregg often dared Mike to turn her into a library, so Soundiron finally flipped on their trusty field recorders to capture a few raw cat vocalizations just for fun: Sounds like meows, hisses, eating, purring, and more.
Soundiron then started exploring the audio with a few digital manipulation tricks to see where that would take them. After a bit of creative sound design, a unique batch of catbiences and an electro drum kit was born. Soundiron hope you enjoy this pet project of sonic goodness. Fun fact: Snack will pretty much do anything for fish, including literally jumping through hoops, despite being rather well-fed.
Snack 2.0 is a powerhouse of animal sounds: Cats, Dogs, Birds, Lion, Tiger, and even a cricket. Have you ever wanted to make a cat choir? Well now you can!
