Recording of a canon pro 2000 printer's "lock and load" mechanism for ink. Several takes with both complete motions and step by step. First series are recorded from about a foot away, then close up. Recorded with a simple stereo mic set. This track has reverb removed.

These sounds were made by this upxon-brand, key-size combination lock box: https://www. Amazon. Com/gp/product/b08ldj479d/. I bought this, and while fiddling with it i became mesmerized by the sounds it made. So i decided to record them foley-style. Recording starts with 15-second noise floor. Recorded with an iphone 7.
I recorded myself winding up an old wall-clock in my living room to use in a song. I used the built-in microphone in an ipad, re-recorded to cubase, added a bit of compression, a gate, and a limiter. It's a stereo file, but the sound is mono.
I recorded myself typing on my corsair k95 rgb platinum. This is a keyboard with cherry mx brown mechanical switches and has a tactile feel to it. I recorded this with a audio-technica at2020 condenser microphone w/ pop filter and shock mount.
An exercise thing which you squeeze that makes a loud creaking noise, sounds interesting pitched down. Recorded with a mid-sides mic setup. Mics used were akg 414, and an oktava mk-012-01 pencil condenser.
This was recorded in my kitchen next to a railway, late at night when there was maintenance going on on the line. A heavy unit called a tamper went past, tamping down the ballast (stones) that go under the tracks. Lots of sub-bass as the whole building gets vibrated and at -04:29 a balanced teapot lid puts itself onto the teapot. Zoom h4n, 24/48 wav exported to flac in audacity.
Recording of a 1970's model of a foil ribbon machine, used to create 1st, 2nd, 3rd, place ribbons, etc. . . Nice untouched mechanized, industrial sound.
Something went wrong on a mechanical device on top of the building that faces my balcony. I don't know what it is exactly (some fan. . . ) but the noise it produces is pretty theatrical. I just could'nt resist recording it. I belive this could be very useful to some of you looking for mechanical sounds. . . Recorded with a zoom h2n in x/y stereo mode.
The winding and release of the shutter on on old camera i found. I did the recording from a few different positions around the mic. Don't forget to rate and comment.
Went to a public toilet in a small village in the lake district (england). The door lock made the most awesome sound and the reverb in that room sounded great, luckily i had my recorder. . .
The buzzer sound from a carwash as one cycle ends and another begins, prompting the driver to move the vehicle forward. Basically the standard buzzer you hear in moves or factory settings when something has gone wrong or a sensor has been violated.
