Field Recording & Vehicle Sound Recording Services

We provide professional field recording services for video games, film and interactive media, with particular expertise in vehicle and automotive sound. We’ve conducted over 350 vehicle recording sessions, capturing the full mechanical detail of hypercars, motorbikes and rare vehicles with clarity and precision. Beyond vehicles, our work includes everything from big cats to antique weaponry. Our recordings have featured in major productions worldwide, reflecting our ability to deliver reliable, production-ready audio at scale.

Following each session, we can supply fully edited and organised source material to your exact specifications, ready for your team to use or develop into production-ready assets. If you need something bespoke, we’ll capture it. If you need it quickly, our Sweet SFX libraries may already contain what you’re looking for.

Prepared For Any Production

Our flexible, mobile setup allows us to capture sound anywhere in the UK and internationally. We handle sourcing, logistics, permissions and planning, ensuring sessions run smoothly without adding overheads to your production team.

We work with a carefully selected collection of over 50 microphones and multiple multi-channel recorders, allowing us to adapt each session to the material being captured. Specialist microphones allow us to record both extreme sound pressure levels and the finest sonic detail with accuracy and control.

Our Sweet SFX libraries are built from original field recordings and designed for professional workflows. Available for licensing, they provide production-ready assets for games, film and interactive media.

In addition to providing work-for-hire field recording services, Sounding Sweet has its own sound libraries available for licensing at Sweet SFX. Built from years of original recording sessions the libraries offer a wide range of high-quality, production-ready sounds. This allows us to offer both custom field recording and flexible off-the-shelf solutions depending on the needs of each project.

"I discovered Sounding Sweet whilst looking for Voice Over Studio in the Stratford area (where the VO artist was featuring in a play). The studio set up is fantastic and Ed was friendly, professional, enthusiastic and genuinely a pleasure to work with from prepping for the project through to delivery. I look forward to working with him again soon!"

Their passion and attention to detail meant we got a superior result that exceeded our expectations and elevated the film to a professional level/to rival much bigger Hollywood movies.
