BOOM Library has announced a unique opportunity for sound professionals and enthusiasts to own a piece of its history.
From December 3rd to December 10th, 2024, purchases made in the BOOM Library store will automatically enter customers into an exclusive prize draw featuring iconic recording hardware that has shaped some of the company’s most renowned sound libraries.
The prize draw includes two exceptional grand prizes, each with its own connection to BOOM Library’s celebrated work, both amazing hardware which is still being used by the team:
- Sound Devices 744T + 2 x MP1 Preamps + Custom Bag
- This industry-standard recorder played a pivotal role in capturing the sounds featured in libraries such as Magic, Urban Explosions, Medieval Weapons, and Cinematic Trailers. Its professional-grade quality and legacy status make it both a collector’s item and a functional recording tool. This unit features analogue limiters, which are rare in modern gear. These unique limiters are one of the key reasons we love this rock-solid equipment.
- Sanken CO-100K Microphone
- Known for its ability to record ultra-high frequencies (up to 100kHz), this microphone was integral to libraries like Cinematic Metal (2010), Creatures, Monsters & Beasts, Aquatic Predators, and Alien Life. The microphone’s extraordinary capability to capture intricate details has made it a cornerstone of BOOM Library’s sound design work for now 15 years.
In addition to the grand prizes, eight runners-up will each receive $100 USD in BOOM Library store credit, providing a chance to explore the company’s extensive range of sound libraries and tools.
BOOM Library founder Axel expressed his enthusiasm for the campaign:
“These prizes represent a significant chapter of BOOM Library’s story. The recorder has captured everything from the delicate crackle of fire to the earth-shaking power of explosions. The Sanken microphone has brought to life the extraordinary creatures and sounds of fantastical worlds. These tools are not just pieces of equipment; they are part of the creative process that shaped our legacy.”
