8 lizenzfrei Audiodateien für "Diskette"

Using a piezo pickup for classical guitar to capture sound produced from using 3 1/2 usb floppy disk drive to read, write, delete, and eject.

A late '90s desktop pc booting. The first few seconds are most eventful. Recorded with a zoom h1n, which was not completely stationary while recording (i was holding a small tripod). Includes pc speaker, fan, diskette drive and lots of hard drive noises.

The wonderful sounds of a 1981 ibm pc model 5150 being turned on, the 5. 25" disk drive checking if a diskette is inserted, the pc emitting its idle hum, and finally being turned back off.

Inserting a 5. 25-inch floppy disk into a micropolis 1053 i metafloppy floppy-disk drive. That's the sliding sound at the beginning. The second knock-knock type of sound is the press-down-and-hook drive latch being closed. The micropolis 1053 is a two-drives unit for s-100 bus early computers. This sound was recorded on the upper floppy-drive.

Inserting 3. 5 inch floppy-disk into a floppy disk drive, with the typical sliding sound first and then the spring-activated locking mechanism snapping it shut.

Typical sliding sound a 3. 5-inch floppy-disk makes when someone has ejected the disk and takes it from the floppy disk drive.

Inserting a large 8-inch floppy-disk into a shugart floppy disk drive and closing the plastic front bezel drive latch. Noisy recording with the fan of the enclosure and neighboring system humming along.

I thought i had a diy contact mic somewhere, but i did not find it. But i found another thing. A contact mic for an instrument tuner. But (again) it had a 1/4 inch mono plug. That meant i could not connect it to my computer mic in. But (i know) what if i plug it in to my modular synth. Surprise. . . Then i could add a little filter, pan and spring reverb. So clamped the mic on to my external 3,5 inch disc drive and recorded. This is my submission to dare 51.
