This collection of ocean sound effects is truly one of a kind, offering a wide range of detailed nature field recordings for your projects. From gentle waves splashing onto sandy beaches and the light lapping of water between rocks, stones and clacking pebbles, to storm-driven surf and the powerful crashing against solid cliffs, you will find every kind of sound that you need to bring the ocean to life.
All of the recordings are seamlessly loopable, making it easy and fast to craft your own soundscapes. Whether you are looking to design the sound of a raging storm at sea, the quiet rippling of water in a harbor, or the peaceful and rhythmic atmosphere of a beach, OCEAN WAVES has it all.
I've been trying to figure out a practical way to create the sound of ocean waves for a production of Around the World in 80 days. We are doing all our sound effects live with a foley artist on stage, and I'm stumped as to how to make a convincing practical sound effect for ocean waves. I've tried filling a jug halfway with water and sloshing it around but that doesn't quite cut it. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try?
I have been finishing up some illustrations these last few days and have been listening to Suzanne Chiani's Seven Waves on repeat. The album (as the name suggests) has wave sound effects on every track. It got me thinking about how I would go about making wave sounds and how there are probably loads of ways to do it. Do you guys have any favorite methods of creating such a sound? Any synthesis method is probably capable, but what tricks have you got up your sleeve? I would love to compare.
A fascinating collection of loopable ocean sound, including modest lappings against various rocks, stones, and clacking pebbles, storm-driven surf, and large splashes onto solid cliffs. Utilize these recordings to improve your projects, whether you need a storm on the wide sea, the rippling of water in a harbor, or the peaceful and rhythmic ambience of a beach.
The ocean's sound is rich in acoustic subtleties. The nature of coasts, sea depth, as well as meteorological and geological circumstances, are all important factors that influence how diverse and dynamic soundscapes are. The sea has an almost unlimited variety of sounds, from the powerful roar of the surf to the soft lapping of waves on sand.
The waves of this library were recorded on coasts and beaches of the Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, the North Sea and the South China Sea. The various recording locations and the large amount of time we have invested in this project give you an outstanding and dynamic repertoire of wave sounds that will let you create the acoustic mood of any ocean-related scene.
Sound Cue based on 239 non-looped, oneshot sounds of individual ocean / sea waves calmly brushing the shore. Ideal to create peaceful 3D beach scene or to trigger with procedurally generated waves. Sounds are trimmed, faded in/out, volume balanced to blend well together. Total recording time: 14 minutes 35 seconds.
Using environmental sounds for relaxation is nothing new. The white noise and repetition of waves or waterfalls or even a gentle rain can help a person tune out the noisy, modern world and find calm. I know it helps me relax. The big question is, do I want to buy prepackaged nature sounds or try my hand at creating my own. Plenty of retail outlets would be happy to take my money in exchange for nature sounds on CD or a fancy new environmental sound machine. There are some pretty convincing recordings out there and I must admit it was tempting to hand over a little hard earned cash for some instant gratification. Of course, if I had chosen that route this would be a very short article. In the end, I decided to use Audacity, one of my favorite free software applications, to create my own virtual trip to the beach.
The jolting drop in sound is gone and the next thing I want to fix is the relative loudness of the two tracks. I think of crashing waves as very powerful sounds, but right now my crashing wave is about the same volume as the lapping water. I can easily lower the volume of the lapping water track by using the gain control on the track control panel. If I slide it to the left three notches I get a 9 dB drop in gain which results in lapping water being less obtrusive and crashing wave sounding more powerful.
Yea I think the main thing missing from breaking waves is how the water sounds against a body. I would see if you can even mix in a few splashes that you may have, or water sloshing up onto something.
If you want the sound of being on a boat then recording on a boat or waves hitting posts at a pier might o the trick. But if you dont want the sound of a ot then my suggestion if still just editing some splashes.
In addition to the aforementioned sound of water slapping against the boat I'd also try to work in some small sounds of the vessel reacting to the waves and the movement; anything from small wood creaks in rhythm to the waves to bigger moans of the hull depending on the ship.
A unique collection of ocean sound effects, from gentle waves onto sandy beaches to big splashes onto solid cliffs, storm-driven surf and small lappings against various rocks, stones and clacking pebbles, all seamlessly loopable. Enhance your projects by using these recordings, whether for a storm on the open sea, the rippling of water in a harbor or the meditative and rhythmic background of a beach atmosphere.
The sound of the ocean is full of sonic details. Smallest changes in the nature of coastlines, the water depth and the climatic and geological conditions are decisive for the diverse and dynamic soundscapes. The great roar of the surf or the gentle lapping of waves onto a sandy beach; the sea contains an almost infinite acoustic richness.
Most relaxing ocean waves sounds for sleep, study, relax. Listen to the sounds of gently crashing waves and chirping paradise birds in background. Fall asleep faster or just relax while listening to the sound of the sea. Tropical ocean sounds are a great remedy for insomnia and sleep disorders and can help you find deep relaxation for your body and mind. The relaxing sound of the ocean is also suitable as background sound for reading, studying, working, better concentration, stress relief, yoga, meditation and much more.

Acoustic-gravity waves are very long sound waves that cut through the deep ocean at the speed of sound. These lightning-quick currents can sweep up water, nutrients, salts, and any other particles in their wake, at any water depth. They are typically triggered by violent events in the ocean, including underwater earthquakes, explosions, landslides, and even meteorites, and they carry information about these events around the world in a matter of minutes.
Researchers at MIT have now identified a less dramatic though far more pervasive source of acoustic-gravity waves: surface ocean waves, such as those that can be seen from a beach or the deck of a boat. These waves, known as surface-gravity waves, do not travel nearly as fast, far, or deep as acoustic-gravity waves, yet under the right conditions, they can generate the powerful, fast-moving, and low-frequency sound waves.
