FUBARED is a collection of crazy sounds from broken, worn-out, defective, and just plain destroyed devices. Faulty preamps, broken doorbells, blown speakers, garbled comms and much more!
FUBARED is a free(ish) library. What does that mean?
Every year (around December 25th), Collected Transients releases a free library. The catch? It’s only available for free to the public for a very limited time. After that, there are two ways to grab them:
- Purchase any regular (not free-ish) Collected Transients library. Following purchase, you’ll be sent a unique coupon code to get all the free(ish) libraries at no additional cost!
- Pay a small fee. After the free period, each library is available to the public for a small fee.
If you want to know when new free(ish) libraries are released, be sure to subscribe to our Mailing List!







Matthew Case –
The FUBARED collection is especially, well, f****d as it were haha. There are so many collections out there emulating working equipment, so it’s refreshing to see a collection where things are breaking or being misused. I’m lining up some sounds for some reel work right now, now and these high quality assets will sound excellent with the upcoming small project. Also, the metadata is organized in a coherent way, so that’s always a positive when hunting for the right effect. Thanks!
