free holiday sfx roundup

So it seems that a December tradition has emerged where the various sfx libraries give stuff away for free!

so here’s what I’ve seen so far.  Feel free to add to this in the comments.

Asoundeffect.com SFX sampler – a pretty big collection of donated sounds from the various indie labels there.  it includes sounds from

• airborne sound
• detunized
• mattia cellotto
• resonance sound
• shaping waves
• skewsound
• sound ex machina
• soundbits
• soundopolis
• the soundcatcher
• tovusound
• uso
• and whatisvalis

Hiss and a Roar has a xmas bundle (and contest) out there.

Chuck Russom released a Glock 18mm handgun

Boom library does the advent calendar where they sometimes give sounds away, and often discount libraries.

Rabbit Ears audio and The Recordist both sent emails to past users with a gift.  check your inbox if you’re purchased from either of them.

Big Wheels Sound Design‘s Red Libraries Series has a freebie collection of French Shop Ambiences

Just Added:

Glitch Machines has a cool impact effects Free Library called SEISM  (H/T to Dave DeLizza)

Twisted Tools has a drum pack too. (H/T to Dave DeLizza)

The Sound Catcher also has a SFX collection currently available at no cost.  It is a kind of greatest hits from the libraries they sell.

If I’ve missed any put them in the comments below!
