Customer Reviews:

Pretty bad.......2006-12-19

Like most sound effects CDs marketed to the general public, this one is of fairly low quality. The sounds are generally inconsistent, poorly recorded, and not very useful. It's fairly obvious that they were compiled from various other sources, rather than being recorded specifically for this release.

If you need sound effects for an extremely amateur film, and you have absolutely no budget, this CD might be useful. I can't recommend it for anything other than that, though. You can download samples of comparable quality for free, or create much better recordings with a good microphone, free software, and a modicum of technical knowledge.

A classic collection... great for video camera-produced films!.......2006-06-16

Previewing some of the sounds, I noticed that the effects weren't that great-sound on the audition files. So I decided to buy this set and see for myself. There is one word to describe most of these sound effects... ARCHIVAL! Many of them are old classic motion-picture sound effects heard since the 30s. The only flaw is the quality. I have seen some professional sound effect collections with vintage sounds, perfectly digitally remastered! All of these sound like they were copied from an old optical film or reel-to-reel tape or LP record. But at least they do have stereo production on the SFX (also, please be noted that not just the tracks labeled "Stereofect" are like that, there are several others in stereo, too!) These sound effects would probably go great if you make amateur movies with an analog video camera (I use a newer Hi-8 model). My favorites here include "Machine guns," "Tires screeching," "Crazy Doings" and "Rainstorm with howling ghosts." So if you're looking for a perfect digitally-recorded sound library, try skipping this one. But if you just need sound effects right away, this will perfectly do the job!

Great item for teachers.......2004-12-09

This collection offers teachers the opportunity to enhance stories with sounds. While there are some sounds that have different versions (ie. police car 1,, 2,and 3), there is still plenty of variety of sounds. As pointed out by other reviewers, the sound quality is not always the greatest. Although I agree that the sound quality could be better, this is an excellent resource for the price. I have had many opportunities to utilize these sounds and have never gotten a bad review from any of my classes. My four star rating is based on the number of sounds available and its usefulness as a teaching tool.

Not Bad for Such a price........2000-12-28

This set includes 400 sound effects for 14 dollars. Dont expect Hollywood style high end effects. But there are very good useful effects. It contains things like rain, car, birds , winds, clocks etc. Sound quality is pretty low on some tracks. But anyway It seems ideal for short filmmakers, videomakers.

Look for another collection, please..........2000-10-27

This collection is realy bad. The sound quality is the worst aspect: all of it has "an air back noise" (try to record anything with your old micro-taped answer-machine: it will be the same as these effects). There are certanly other collections better then this one, that is old fashioned. And it doesn't have 400 diferent sounds: at least 150 are repetitions with the same title, without mention those with a diferent title and the same "effect". Save your money and look for something new!
