344 Sound Effects proudly presents The Antiques Collection, a meticulously recorded bundle that captures the distinct, textured sounds of objects from a bygone era. The sonic qualities of antique items can be elusive, often requiring specific techniques and a variety of recordings to faithfully reproduce their authentic character. With this collection, our in-house team has delivered a suite of high quality recordings designed to bring depth, age, and historical richness to your projects.
The Antiques Collection features a thoughtfully curated selection of objects, sourced over several years through trusted auctioneers across the UK, and a dedicated independent antiques dealer based in our home city of Manchester, the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.
This bundle contains recordings of antiques such as mechanical typewriters, rotary telephones, vintage bottles, dusty books, old clocks, metal boxes, luggage, and antique cutlery. These aren't just props, they're full of tonal nuance. From the weighty click of typewriter keys to the gentle clink of glass bottles, every sound has been captured with precision and care to highlight the tactile, resonant qualities that only age and craftsmanship can produce.
Each recording in this bundle was performed and captured under controlled studio conditions, meticulously tested across a variety of surfaces and materials to ensure realism, clarity, warmth, and sonic consistency. You'll hear the weighty thud of vintage luggage being set down, the crisp ticks of antique wooden clocks, the textured rustle of pages in a well-worn book, and the delicate clink of aged cutlery against a handcrafted oak table. Whether you're designing sound for period films, historical documentaries, games, or audio dramas, this bundle provides an immediate and authentic solution, saving you the time and effort of sourcing rare items yourself.
With over 700 files and 2.8GB, 24bit, 96kHz, of professionally captured antique recordings, this bundle offers a comprehensive library of unique, characterful sounds, making it your go-to resource for adding genuine vintage detail and historical depth to any audio project.
