WHO IS ALIEN IMAGING?

ALIEN IMAGING launched in 2002 as a boutique, one man sound effect creation shop.  The one man – is me – Jeff Schmidt.  I’m a 20 year commercial radio vet – the last 15 of which has been spent as Creative Director at KFOG, KSAN, KNBR, KUFX, KTCT, KGMZ in San Francisco, CA.  I make sweepers and promos for a living.  And I make the sounds that make sweepers and promos sound cooler.  Check out some of my radio work at http://schmidtzbitz.com I also design sound for video games – check out some samples here 

 

WHAT RADIO FORMATS ARE ALIEN IMAGING LIBRARIES FOR?

All Alien Imaging Libraries are designed for contemporary radio imaging.  That tends to attract a greater number of Hits, and Rock Radio based customers.

That said – nearly every commercial and public radio format has purchased Alien Imaging FX.  Rock, Hits, Christian, Urban, Country, Talk (News/and Sports) and Public Radio.

If you want the modern sound without a lot of format specific sounds (distorted guitars, for example) these libraries will do the job.

 

DO YOU OFFER DISCOUNTS?

Yes!  If there is a current promotion it will be promoted prominently on the home page.  UNLESS it’s a Newsletter only discount.

For those discounts – just  Sign up for the Alien Imaging Newsletter - I only send mail when there’s a new DISCOUNT or NEW product available.  Didn’t get the email?  Make sure you check your spam filter.  Email me directly if you’ve haven’t gotten anything.  alienimaging@gmail.com

 

ARE YOUR LIBRARIES LICENSE OR BUY OUT?

All Alien Imaging FX Libraries are presently BUY OUT.  Which means – once you pay for it – you can use it for  your imaging work without further payments.  You MAY NOT re-sell the sounds in whole or in part as SOUNDS in ANY format.  If you need clarification – just ask –  I’m easy to work with.

 
 

CAN I USE A SINGLE LIBRARY PURCHASE ON SEVERAL WORKSTATIONS/FORMATS AT MY COMPANY?

I ONLY BUY LIBRARIES ENDORSED BY DAVE FOXX. 

You must own a lot of libraries then.  :)

It’s a fairly common practice for companies to send high profile radio producers free material in exchange for a promotional blurb.  It’s part of the biz.

But I’ve never done that.

I have however sold my libraries into every major U.S. Canadian and European Radio market.  Several stations in NYC too.  Just not Mr. Foxx’s.  :)
