Argus News

The new SFXEngine Casino Sound Pack is released today. The set contains playing card sounds, dice being shaken and thrown, and other game sounds like fruit machine sounds, chips and coins, and wooden board game counters being moved.

Supplied in SFXEngine project format. Easy or modify, with lots of samples and modulators that are free to use and re-use. Far more flexible than a mere sample library.

SFXEngine was recently updated too. Find SFXEngine and the new sound pack here:

Upgrades and new features to SFXEngine will continue throughout the year.

Happy Sound Making,
