A space-like sound. I imagined it as an airlock seal engaging in outer space, and the overwhelming sense of isolation through a shifting 8k tone. Believe it or not, i generated this sound not for battlestar galactica, but a courtroom scene on a play i designed the sound for.
The recording isn't exactly 100% clean of ambient noises (i believe there's a door slam somewhere). But i manage to remove a couple of the more distracting noises.
Walking around outside on the campus of oak hill school in oregon. Stomping all over the place, so there's some grass crunching sounds and some birds tweeting.
Just a stereo recording of the crackling fireplace outside my house burning wood. There were fireworks being set off by neighbors in the background if you listen closely so my apologies for that. Recorded with a zoom h4n.
A smithy's chimney is opened and closed for ventilation. Recorded in 24-bit 96khz with a tascam dr-40 and a sony ecm-nv1. For details on sow: blacksmith ed1 sound pack see: www. Oree. Storijapan. Net/praxis/sound-of-work.
A large exercise ball being inflated using an accordion-style hand pump, which produces a whistling sound as air is forced into the nearly full rubber type ball. There is a reverb to the ringing of the air as it spreads in the ball.
Just a sound of a person who smokes, not very good quality but playing with equalizer and other effects, you can have a nice final sound. I recorded this sound for a personal project with a very cheap microphone. But the final rendering was good.
A gathering of small birds chattering in a bush outside my house, chattering to each other. Some wind noise, wind chimes and (unfortunately) the vibration noise of the minidisc recorder drive spinning are all clearly audible at various points.
Sound of roofers stapling new roof shingles on a building a few hundred yards away. The stapling noise includes some slapback and natural reverberation due to the distance.
Sound of air brakes squealing and releasing. Recorded from a garbage truck with the iphone voice memos (i know, i know, but it actually sounds amazing).
Crowd sounds during the annual arrival of the three kings in seville, spain. You can hear a little boy complaining that he's not getting any candy in spanish. You can also hear some other people talking and the sound of drums in the background.
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.
