Sci-Fi UI is a collection of 401 unique, futuristic, alien-technology sounds divided into 7 thematic collections. This is not just another collection of bleeps and bloops. The sounds were created by manipulating field recordings, Foley, and sound effects giving them a personality with an organic, emotional and performative feel. The types of sounds include positive, negative, and neutral alerts, alarm loops, file and program loading, power up and power down sounds, software glitches, and system failures. Also included is a collection of alien technology ambience loops called “Control Room Tones” to help you design your spaceship interiors.

Sound Creation
These sounds were all created through experimentation with digital manipulation on a wide variety of ambiences, sound effects, Foley, and random field recordings pulled from David Fienup’s personal sound effects library. While we won’t give details on the process, the software used includes Pro Tools and iZotope Rx. Essentially, this whole collection started from taking “normal” recordings of everyday objects and ambiences, and messing with them until they were unrecognizable, while maintaining their organic randomness and performance.

Metadata
Metadata was embedded using SoundMiner Plus. Metadata includes: Artwork, Filename, Description, BWDescription, Keywords, Duration, Sample Rate/Bit Depth, Category, SubCategory, CatID, Designer, Library, Location, and Manufacturer.

UCS Compliant
This collection uses the Universal Category System in both the file name and the CatID metadata. For more information about the UCS, please visit https://universalcategorysystem.com

This collection provides some new and interesting sounds, as well as a ton of variations so your soundtrack never gets old! All Soundopolis tracks include metadata tags so they are easy to find using any search engine. Collections come in easily downloadable zip files. Check out the track list for more details.
