VRRROOOOOMMMM!

Road Riders brings a new twist on what you'd normally expect to hear from a motorcycle. With a focus on capturing the unique sound of Ducati's higher-end motorbikes, the 2012 Ducati Panigale and the 2011 Ducati Monster, these titans have a unique sound that can be used for many things beyond motorcycles, including spaceships, cinematic whooshes, and a variety of other sci-fi vehicles. We have also included loads of bonus material, from the whiz and whine of the 2012 Yamaha FZ8 to the grit, muscle and loudness of a chopped 2001 Honda Shadow. Road Riders was recorded on location in Quebec, Canada's open country roads. Road Riders adds a layer of raw power to any production.

So Many More Uses Beyond the Obvious!

I held off on Road Riders for a good while but finally gave in. So glad I did! It has uses far beyond thrilling motorcycle sounds. These sounds make excellent source material for all manner of sound design. Pop them into your favorite granularizer, morphing filters, etc. Let the fun begin!

This is practical!!

There are an infinite number of sound effects, but the sound of a motorcycle is a great choice. It suits any situation. It can be wild, romantic, or nostalgic. Hearing the sound of the engine departing brings with it a sense of sadness.

I wish there were more revs but the sources are super pristine and then again well mixed and mastered sounds

Clean recordings of dirty engines and passbys. The onboard recordings are a superb added bonus too. Nice and long samples make variations easy. 10 out of 10.

The bonus designed sounds in this library are not to be overlooked. I’ve used the whooshes on many occasions.

Important install note

Open this file after downloading every part:

For multipart sound libraries

  1. Download every part into the same folder. Wait until every download has finished, and keep the original filenames unchanged.
  2. Open Part 1 only in one of the apps below: the file ending in .7z.001, .zip.001 or .part1.rar (sometimes .part01.rar). For older .rar + .r00 sets, open the .rar file.
  3. The app reads the remaining parts automatically and extracts the complete library. Keep all parts together until extraction finishes; you do not need to open the other parts.

If your library contains separate, complete ZIP archives instead of numbered volumes, extract each ZIP separately. Software installers have their own instructions.

Mac — Keka recommended
Keka is our recommended Mac app for large SoundMorph libraries and can be faster than The Unarchiver. Get the free direct download from Keka’s website, or support its developer with the Mac App Store version ($6.49 USD). Store pricing varies by region and may change. The Unarchiver also works and is free. Extraction speed depends on your Mac and the archive.

Keka users: allow folder or drive access

Keka needs permission to read the folder or drive holding your downloads, especially multipart archives on an external drive. If you have not already granted access:

  1. Open Keka → Settings (or Preferences) → File Access.
  2. Click the + button at the bottom left. Select the folder or drive containing all your downloaded parts, then click Give access to Keka (or Open).
  3. If you are extracting to a different folder or drive, grant access there too. Then open Part 1 only again.

Seeing “Operation not permitted” or “Cannot open the file as archive”? Check Keka’s access first. These messages do not necessarily mean the download is damaged.

Show Keka settings (+ button)
Keka File Access settings. Use the plus button in the bottom-left corner to add the folder or drive containing your downloads.
The arrow points to the + button. Add the folder or drive you are using; the entries shown here are just an example.

Windows — 7-Zip
Use 7-Zip, a free archive extraction app for Windows.

Make sure your drive has enough free space for both the downloaded archive parts and the extracted library.

* We’re developing a SoundMorph downloader and installer app to make downloading and installing your libraries faster and easier. Coming in 2027!
