Recording of a nail being hit into a wood board with a club hammer. Loud hard repetitive sound post-processed to add slight compression to the audio. Recorded inside a workshop using a zoom h6 recorder.
Stereo ambience of a medium sized kitchen in an open apartment. Fridge hum turns off during recording. Recorded in m/s with a schoeps cmit and cmc6 w/ mk8 capsule on a sound devices 633. Decoded to l/r stereo.
A pneumatic air tool (jackhammer) was used to lower some concrete blocks on the exterior of our garage. I was inside the house recording it with a zoom h2 recorder. So this was recorded through an insulated wall. This is the shorter recording.
This track is an original, with the use of the hammerhead beat generator and sound file processor called goldwave. The track has been processed fo added effect. . .
These short files are random selections from a 9min composite audio file i put together from an accidental recording made when i left my sony camcorder on in my studio. They are part of the same series posted elsewhere on thefreesoundproject site titled "accidental recordist". There is some hiss/background noise which is part of the street front urban scene of my studio. There are two chimes - one low pitch constructed of four aluminium tubes and wooden clapper (gift) and the high pitch one of small stainless steel discs (purchased in maui from craft shop). I did some basic cleanup of low level background noise and applied plus one level of loudness using adobe soundbooth cs3 to get some clarity.
