Four tone categories24 bit / 96 kHzEULA in Downloads

The categories here are tones, not body parts.

Martial Arts, Grounded, Over The Top and Gory — four, named by the field, and they sort the same punch by how far from real it is meant to land. The mechanical sort sits underneath it: punches, kicks, grapples, throws and body shoves, five named in the Construction Kit.


At a Glance

  • Three editions, and the figures sum 100 files plus 524 is 624; 600 sounds plus 3,986 is 4,586; 0.7 GB plus 5.6 is 6.3 — added here off the supplier’s own three lines
  • 600 over 100 is exactly six The Designed edition divides to six sounds a file — computed here. The Construction Kit divides to about 7.6
  • 6.3 GB across 624 files About 10.3 MB per file in the bundle — the division is computed here
  • The field admits the processing It says selective pre-processing was applied to boost impact, because real fight recordings come out flat. That is on the card, not inferred here
  • Twenty-two keywords, closed list AIR through WHOOSH, listed and stopped. Three of the twenty-two are air movement — SWISH, SWOOSH and WHOOSH
  • Furniture, plastic and metal are in it A body-combat keyword list that also carries FURNITURE, PLASTIC and METAL — named here rather than dropped

02What The Field Namesfour tones over five actions
Martial ArtsThe field files kung fu and karate under this heading by name
GroundedThe realistic end of the same scale, named as its own category
Over The TopThe field’s own example for this one is an exaggerated wrestling hit
GoryThe fourth tone. GORE and CRUNCH both appear in the keyword list
Punches, kicks, grapples, throws, body shovesFive actions, named by the field as what the Construction Kit holds
PropsLeather strikes, wooden hits, body falls and wrestling moves — four named, and the field closes that list with “and more”, so it is open
Pre-processingThe field says selective pre-processing was applied where needed, because real fight recordings land flat. Worth knowing before you layer them
Close CombatThe field names it as this library’s predecessor and says the categories were reorganised for this one

A punch on set is nearly silent. What an audience hears in a fight is built afterwards out of leather, wood and body falls, and a set that sorts its hits by how stylised they are — four tones, named by the field — is sorting them the way the mix needs them sorted: one punch, four distances from real.
