We are extremely proud to announce the release of our newest Boom Box Library: The 1966 Ford Mustang!
To create this library, we recorded a vintage 1966 Ford Mustang GT model. This model boasts a v8 engine (225 hp, 168 kW, 228 PS "289"), grille-mounted fog lamps, disc brakes, reverse lights, and a hard top. The 1966 GT interior includes an instrument panel with a speedometer, fuel gauge, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge and ampmeter in five round dials.
During the recording session, we placed five different microphones at key locations on the car and recorded accelerating, decelerating, driving steadies, idling, and revs. Then, we recorded pass-bys of various speeds, pull aways, pull in and stops, doors, ignition, levers, switches, windows, and more using three different shotgun microphones. All takes were recorded at the high sample rate of 96 kHz.
Once we had our stellar recordings, our editing and mixing expertise entered the equation. We found the best microphone and placement choices for each take, sometimes choosing multiple microphones and mixing them together to create the most robust sound effect possible. Then, we separated the files and named them to clearly, creating sound effect files that are ready for immediate use in your sound effects library. You won’t need to cull through long real-time recordings to find what you need with this library.
All sound files are a combination of these microphones and placements:
DPA 4060 (Exhaust and Intake)
AKG D112 (Exhaust)
Sennheiser MKH 8040 (Exhaust)
Custom Primo EM172 Mics (Engine and Intake)

Sennheiser MKH 416 (Pass-by)
Sennheiser MKH 8060 (Pass-by)
Sennheiser MKH30 (Pass-by)
