Alan Howarth Collection

The Alan Howarth Collection brings you a gold mine of sounds from the archive of the legendary sound artist behind countless iconic films from the 1980s, ‘90s, and beyond. From crafting the sonic worlds of the original Star Trek films, to designing sounds for timeless blockbusters like The Hunt for Red October and Total Recall, as well as co-composing many of John Carpenter’s most defining soundtracks, Howarth’s work has left a lasting mark on cinematic sound. This diverse and inspiring general library has been meticulously curated and lovingly restored from Howarth’s original tapes, letting you bring some of that movie magic to your own productions.

Packed with retro flavor but versatile enough for modern sound design, this library covers a bit of everything. Witness Howarth’s peerless sound design with a selection of sci-fi and spaceship sounds, massive explosions and rumbles, creature vocalizations, and other designed elements. Layer and process textures like wind chimes, compressed air, fire, electricity, and animal noises including primates and bees. Bring any game or film scene to life with a huge selection of Foley (including footsteps, doors, and 250+ weapon sounds), ambiences ranging from tropical jungles to shipyards, and hard effects of all kinds.
