The BBC Sound Effects Library is generally acknowledged to be the most comprehensive of its kind in the world, comprising approximately 6,000 recorded sounds. Now, for the first time, a selection of these high-quality recordings - used in BBC Radio and Television productions - has been published and made available to professional and amateur theatrical companies and film-makers. The selection has been edited to present those effects most frequently required in plays and home-movies.

The record's on the turntable, you've decided which effects to use.  It's simply a matter of incorporating them into your play, or on to your sound-track.  If your experience and equipment are limited - have courage - it's not difficult, and the results can be sensational.

The overall duration of Side I is 26' 39", and of Side II 26' 37". This includes an allowance of 3-4 seconds between each sound, and a 6-second interval between bands.
