Boom Library Armageddon

Sound Design Samples in WAV Format


Acoustic Events Beyond Human Scale

Armageddon is a professional sound effects library centred on natural disasters at extreme scale.

Earthquakes, storms, avalanches, collapsing terrain, and overwhelming environmental forces form the core of the library.

Alongside this, selected designed content pushes into truly gigantic territory, delivering extra-large events that go beyond real-world reference while remaining usable in serious production workflows.


Extinction Level Explosion Sounds

Armageddon focuses on large-scale natural disasters rather than isolated effects.

Meteorite impacts, earthquake sound effects, storm sound effects, thunder, collapsing terrain, and environmental destruction are designed as unfolding events that occupy space and time.

The emphasis is on scale and movement, not single impacts.


The Krakatoa Eruption Sound

The Krakatoa eruption was the loudest sound ever recorded, but with 180 dB at 160km distance not recordable in a modern cinematic quality.

While the library is grounded in natural disaster sound design, parts of the Designed content deliberately extend into gigantic, beyond-reality scale to achieve impact that modern film, television, and games demand.


Aggressive by Design

These 3,100+ sounds are intentionally dense, compressed, and forceful.

Distortion and saturation are part of the sound, not an accident.

Armageddon is built to deliver weight and energy that can hold its place in modern cinematic mixes without being buried by music or dialogue.


Scale at Multiple Distances

Although Armageddon excels at wide, distant, overwhelming events, it also supports closer perspectives.

The Construction Kit includes material suitable for more immediate detail, allowing sound designers to move from large-scale establishing moments to physical, close-up destruction.


Event-Based Destruction Building Blocks

The Construction Kit is organised around events rather than single effects.

The 2,800+ sounds are created to be layered and combined to build evolving destruction sequences.

This approach supports long-form scenes, gameplay systems, and controlled escalation.


Built for Real Production Workflows

Armageddon is structured to work quickly under real production conditions.

Clear categories, consistent perspectives, and production-ready processing make it easy to assemble complex destruction without excessive editing or corrective work.


Gigantic Designed Events

The Designed section goes beyond natural disaster into truly gigantic scale.

These 300+ sounds represent forces that exceed any real-world reference, using extreme density and controlled chaos to deliver overwhelming impact.

They are intended for moments where naturalism alone is not enough.


Designed Against Picture

Extensive visual research informed the timing and motion of the sounds.

Large-scale disaster footage and environmental events were studied to ensure Armageddon translates convincingly against picture, whether used as distant forces or closer, more physical layers.

The Basics

iLok is a copy protection method used by many of our brands.

It has 3 types of activations, iLok USB, iLok Machine, and iLok Cloud.

Different brands/products will offer different iLok methods. iLok USB is always an option, but the availability of iLok Cloud and iLok Machine methods is at the discretion of the software developer.


iLok Account

For all iLok protected products, you will need an iLok account. You can create one for free here: ilok.com/#!registration


iLok License Manager

To manage your iLok licenses, there is a dedicated app called iLok License Manager. This app is used to register, activate, and move your licenses between locations.

You can download the latest installers from the iLok website: ilok.com/#!home


iLok USB Key

iLok USB

This activation is stored on an iLok 2 or 3 USB key.

It is the best option for portability, if you frequently move between multiple machines, and offline use.


iLok Machine ID

Machine ID

This activation is stored locally on your computer.

While this is a convenient way to work offline, and does not require the additional cost of an iLok USB, there is the risk of a license being lost in the case of a drive failure.

This option also requires extra care when you upgrade to a new computer, the license(s) must be deactivated on your old machine first to ensure you do not lose them.


iLok Cloud

iLok Cloud

This activation is based online, and requires a "cloud session" using the iLok License Manager.

It requires an active internet connection for the entire time you use the plugin(s).
