Does anyone know of a sound effects pack or website that contains a decent set of rolling ball bearing/hardball (e.g marbles etc.) sounds? I'm specifically looking for a ball rolling along a small metal track, like the ones you find inside some pinball machines.
Any suggestions would be helpfull.
Thanks.
record rolling a marble with variable speed on a fairly damped wooden board .then on the edit replace the hits with metal rings n other elements.
The Boom library has "spinning glass" and "spinning plastic" which might do part of the job. The impacts you can add from a metal impact sound.
HISSandROAR contact mic library will do the trick. http://hissandaroar.com/sd008-contact-mic/
For something like this I would just record it. Assuming you have the gear. Chances are you wouldn't find a 'rolling marbles' library as it's too specific a sound. I'd try a website like sound dogs that might have what your looking for.
Splice.com has lots of foley stuff. Here are a few with marbles and ball bearings:
This library should do the trick, with all things spinning & rolling: https://www.asoundeffect.com/sound-library/rolling-spinning/
