What’s Inside

• Sound sources covering sizes from small to skyscraper-tall, available in both the Designed and Construction Kit editions
• A huge arsenal of real recordings in the Construction Kit
• 8 fully designed high-tech mechanic characters across 4 size classes in the Designed edition
• 96kHz / 24-bit WAV, UCS-compliant metadata, royalty-free

A Mechanical System. Eight Characters. Every Scale.

Every mech project starts the same way. You need a small unit for close detail, a large unit for scale, and something in between to bridge them. Most libraries make you build each one from scratch, sourcing and matching elements that were never designed to sit together.

MECHS & ROBOTS solves that at the library level. Eight fully designed characters across four size classes in the Designed edition, built from the same source material of the Construction Kit, with the same design logic applied at every scale. Drop a Microbot and a Titan into the same session. They work together because they were built together.

Learn More

Mechs & Robots – Construction Kit

Real Recordings at Three Scales

Over 4,500 metal footstep and movement recordings at small, medium, and large sizes, captured from heavy industrial hardware selected for sonic character: tool cabinets, ammunition boxes, extractor hoods, steel beams, car jacks, and sheet metal. Servo motors in six configurations covering plastic and metal housing. Mechanical sources from industrial gears, ratchets, and vintage hardware including signal box levers, jet cockpit components, and commercial door mechanisms.

Consistent Structure Throughout

Organised into Metal, Mechanical, Servo, and Synthetic categories, with six variations per recorded element and twelve for metal footstep and movement categories. Synthetic elements were designed as part of the system with the same size-class relationships as the recorded material, not added afterwards.

Mechs & Robots – Designed

Eight Characters, Four Size Classes

Small (Microbot, Nanotron), Medium (Android, Automaton, Summoner), Large (Gunbuster, Colossus, Titan), and Extra Large. Each character includes 12 sound categories: Footstep, Movement, Bodyfall, Damage Impact, Transform, Dismantle, Calculate, Expression, Rotation, Power Up, Power Down, and Idle sequence.

Built to Work Together in Session

Each character includes Footstep (10 variations) and Movement (10 variations) files at their respective size class. Idle sequences are 30-second sequences designed to layer across size classes. All characters share a consistent sonic design language so they can be combined within the same production.

Construction Kit and Designed Content Combined

THE BUNDLE – The best of both worlds at a discounted price.

The Bundle contains both the Designed and Construction Kit editions at a discounted price. The Designed set gives you eight ready-to-use mech characters for immediate drag-and-drop results. The Construction Kit gives you the source material to build your own characters, extend existing ones, or layer additional detail. Together, they cover every phase of a professional mech sound design workflow, from rapid temp track placement to deep custom character construction.

Lloyd Alvarez Duplicate Frame Remover Updated

Duplicate Frame Remover does exactly what the name implies: removes duplicate frames in your After Effects footage. New retiming feature and 50% faster processing.

Using the same engine as Magnum, Duplicate Frame Remover scans the footage and removes the duplicate frames by using the layer’s time-remapping channel. This could come in handy on gameplay captures or roto jobs where the footage has funky pulldown or any other occasion where you need to remove duplicate frames from a clip.

What’s new in v3.4?

• Added a new ‘No retime just set keys’ option that will set time-remapping keys at all the good frames but won’t retime them. This is useful if you just need to find and mark the good frames.
