BOOM Library Cyber Weapons earns its place in the toolfarm library for its tight, punchy samples and the detailed sound processing that gives shot attacks, reloads and flybys a distinctly futuristic quality.
BOOM Library Cyber Weapons is a sound effects library built for futuristic, modern and Sci-Fi weaponry, ranging from small sidearm-grade lasers to planet-melting beams of destruction. It comes in three editions: a Construction Kit of source recordings, a Designed collection of finished sounds, and a Bundle that packages both at a discounted price.
The Construction Kit holds over 4,000 source sounds — real-world object recordings alongside synthesized effects — covering Foley, mechanics, synthesized beams, impacts, servos, shots, whooshes, tails and transients. The Designed collection offers futuristic weapons in small, medium and large variants with a range of timings, attacks and tails. Samples are tight and punchy, and the library steers clear of the harmless pew-pew cliché.
Everything is delivered as WAV files at 24-bit / 96 kHz for Windows and Mac, with content info supplied as PDF and XLS documents. Sounds are designed to be layered, merged and faded together, or shortened and combined with split-second crossfades to build new variants. The Designed package suits games, film, TV, advertising and other media.
BOOM Library Cyber Weapons is best for sound designers working on games, film, TV, advertising and other media who need futuristic, modern or Sci-Fi weapon effects.
BOOM Library Cyber Weapons is completely free to download and use.
BOOM Library Cyber Weapons ships as WAV files, so you can import and work with the sounds across a range of hosts. Compatibility is listed with Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Premiere and Final Cut Pro X, alongside After Effects and Premiere Pro. Because the material is plain WAV audio, it drops into most editing and audio software that accepts that format. Check the developer's page for the full current compatibility details.
BOOM Library Cyber Weapons comes in three editions. The Construction Kit holds over 4,000 raw and lightly processed source sounds — Foley, mechanics, synthesized beams, impacts, servos, shots, whooshes, tails and transients — for designing your own effects from scratch. The Designed collection provides finished, ready-to-use futuristic weapon sounds in small, medium and large variants with varied timings, attacks and tails. The Bundle combines both at a discounted price. Construction Kit totals 672 files and 4,032 sounds; Designed totals 144 files and 576 sounds.
BOOM Library Cyber Weapons delivers its audio as WAV files at 24-bit / 96 kHz, and the files run on both Windows and Mac. Each edition includes content info as PDF and XLS documents. The Bundle spans 816 files and 4,608 sounds at 9.2 GB, made up of the 7.8 GB Construction Kit and the 1.4 GB Designed collection. For the complete technical specifications, see the developer's page.
BOOM Library Cyber Weapons is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing and availability can change over time, so it's worth checking the developer's page for the current terms before you download the library or use the sounds in a project. The collection is offered as WAV audio files, and the developer provides content info documents in PDF and XLS form to help you browse what's included.
