Portal
Cinematic Door Sound Effects
$49
PORTAL is an expansive and meticulously crafted sound library of designed doors and vaults built from pristine, high-definition 192 kHz door recordings to give sound designers unparalleled detail and flexibility.
Discover an enormous range of massive door hits, impacts and slams alongside whooshes, tense transitions, and mechanical movements tailored for cinematic sound design.
The library covers everything from ancient creaking wooden doors and rusted medieval gates to heavy dungeon style metal doors, stressful groans, twisted latches, rattling handles, and countless other mechanical textures.
Raw and Designed Doors
The collection includes 340 fully designed elements at 48 kHz plus 200 raw source recordings at 192 kHz, giving you a rich foundation for extreme pitching, granular manipulation, layering, and other advanced sound design workflows.
PORTAL is a collaboration between Alessandro Romeo of HorrorSound and Czech sound recordist Lukas Tvrdon, combining their strengths in sound design and field recording.
Equipement
The recording process was carried out using a Sound Devices MixPre-6, ensuring ultra clean preamps and exceptionally low noise for capturing even the most delicate mechanical movements.
A selection of premium microphones including the Sanken CO-100K, Sennheiser MKH 30, DPA 4007, and DPA 4060 was employed to achieve extraordinary clarity, extended frequency response, and precise spatial detail.
"Portal is one of those libraries you know your going to use ALOT the minute you hear it.
Full of characterful wooden creaks, groans and squeaks as well as heavy organic impacts this is such a great library for horror and thriller work.
When I was asked to work on a custom cue for Osgood Perkin’s new horror Keeper I knew this would be the perfect library for the job!
Set in an a remote cabin deep in the forest, I could drop these deep sampled, meticulously designed organic, wood sounds straight into the mix and instantly get a vibe going!"
