And electrolux dishwasher washing dishes in the middle of the night. Some humming from a malfunctioning induction stove in the background. Recorded with iphone xi.
An mp3 recording of a cup being filled with water from a sink faucet. The water stream is quite powerful. Recorded with a black digital ic sony voice recorder.
Snowmelt water pouring into a storm drain on a cold dayin mid-december. Recorded with my handy zoom h4n recorder with its internal microphones. An amazing recording with a lot of echoing water. . .
The sound of water free falling off the edge of a flat roof. I opened the apartment balcony door and started recording. The fourth floor apartment is on the corner. The water was draining off the flat roof over the edge and falling directly from the roof to the ground. The recording equipment is a studio quality apex 460 multi pattern tube condensor microphone. It was located to avoid getting wet (!) and was about 90 degrees and six feet away from the sound source, just set in a few feet from the open balcony door.
I was surprised that this came out so well, an awesome water-down-the-drain sound in my very own kitchen sink. A plastic dishpan was tipped and held there until the water exited. Quite a roar, unmodified except that it is contained in the dish washing file.
Water draining from my shower pipes makes a strange hand drum sound. I added two tracks and passed each to one side. Not sure if that is how you achieve stereo. I’m learning.
I turned my kitchen sink on and off several times. Its a fairly noisy sink. You can hear the faucet squeaking and a high pitched hum that comes from the pipes. Once the faucet is turned off, you can hear the water running down the drain.
Water comes to a boil in a kettle, is poured into a mug, is stirred with a metal spoon, then is dumped in the sink. The neighbors were hammering something, so once or twice i re-started an action. . . .
