Description

When it was launched, the McLaren Senna's 4.0L twin-turbo V8 was the most powerful engine McLaren had ever put in a road car. It purrs, growls and howls, with whirring, whistling turbos and the odd pop. Static revs, coasting, launch control, burnouts and limiter runs are included, along with idles and pass-bys. With mics in the engine bay, above the exhausts and in the air intakes, plus four rigs along the racetrack, this McLaren Senna sound library captures a hypercar at full stretch.

We recorded the cabin with an ambisonic microphone, then delivered it as stereo, 5.1 surround and four-channel A Format, perfect for surround and VR work. We edit out the speech between driver and crew, so you get clean cabin sound. Surround files aren’t available in the Short & Sweet library.

Every recorder is timecode-synced, and files carry their timestamps in the metadata, so every mic from a manoeuvre lines up as it was recorded. Ready-made Reaper and Pro Tools sessions come with the Standard Pack, so you can audition every perspective straight away.

Delivered uncompressed in 96kHz and 24-bit, the library keeps all its detail and nuance, with room to pitch and stretch sounds. Every file is carefully edited and kept as natural as possible, with only light processing where it’s truly needed.

Metadata

To help you quickly find the sounds you are looking for, we have included extensive metadata in every file. Our file naming and metadata can be read by sample library search tools such as Soundminer & Basehead.
