What's in this sound pack?

Wind Textures III highlights a new palette of wide sounding wind effects recorded over two years, from high mountain ridges to marshes and grasslands.

• Featuring the levante, also known as the famous easterly wind that blows in the western Mediterranean Sea, which is a dominant feature in the province of Cadiz, Spain.

• This set of recordings includes winds blasting marshes and several types of vegetation, as well as recordings from a car interior.

• Blustery winds in montane grasslands and high mountain ridges from the Guadarrama Mountains in Central Spain.

• In the heights of this nature reserve are prairies in which high mountain shrubs dominate the terrain. This includes several types of leaves rustling.

• Unless it’s specified in the filename, all recordings are bird and insect free.

• Intensity varies from calm breezes to gusts of up to 80 km/h.

• Wind blasting a motorbike captured from inside a helmet with no engine noise at all. The visor was in three different positions (open, half way open and closed) in order to get a wider variety of sounds.

• These sounds can be used for any type of object, animal or vehicle in motion where wind plays an important role in terms of storytelling.

• Gear used: Sound Devices MixPre 6-II, Sennheiser 8040 in ORTF, Sennheiser 8050 with MKH 30 in M/S, Sony D100, LOM Usis.
