"Houston, We Have A Problem..."

...A popular quotation from the radio communications between the Apollo 13 astronaut John Swigert and the NASA Mission Control Center (Houston) during the Apollo 13 spaceflight in 1970. A perfect example where our Lost Transmissions sound library would be a valuable resource for a sound designer working on a similar scene or situation. Recorded and designed by Jason Cushing (Co-founder of SoundMorph), Lost Transmissions is a collection of electromagnetic and radio recordings with an emphasis on communications gone wrong. Malfunctioning static, radio recordings, analog hums, designed passbys, & tonal fluctuating noise. Lost Transmissions is another essential set of utilitarian libraries to add to your tool box. As a bonus we've also teamed up with and included Echo Collective's Kontakt radio instrument ''Squelch'' and accompanying sample library, giving you an additional 100+ real radio samples to work with and playable radio instrument. Be sure to watch the Squelch video to learn more.

SoundMorph sound libraries are trusted by professionals in TV, Movies and Games.

Lost Transmissions: Static Never Sounded So Good

Lost Transmissions is nothing short of spectacular—a meticulously crafted library that plunges you deep into the raw textures of sound itself. This collection brims with static, radio hiss, and all manner of sonic debris: buzzes, bursts, pops, whirrs, startup hums, shutdown fades, pulses, and an endless variety of alien, otherworldly tones. Each element feels alive, charged with atmosphere, and ready to breathe character into your projects.

What makes this collection stand out is its sheer versatility. Whether you’re designing for sci-fi worlds, unsettling horror atmospheres, experimental music, or simply seeking unusual textures to spark creativity, Lost Transmissions delivers. It’s more than just a sound pack—it’s a toolkit for creating tension, mystery, and immersion.

Jason Cushing’s attention to detail is evident in every file. The sounds are crisp, dynamic, and bursting with character, yet balanced in a way that makes them immediately usable and inspiring.

In short, Lost Transmissions is a must-have for any sound designer, composer, or storyteller who thrives on pushing sonic boundaries.
