Mountainside forest, high elevation, thunderstorms in the vicinity. Recorded using a sound professionals ms-tfb-2 binaural headset microphone worn in my ears and their 12vdc power box connected to a griffin usb imic and laptop running audacity. +6db digital gain applied.
Huge thunder clap, recorded in my garage with a netbook and yeti mic during a storm. One of those thunders where the flash and the sound are simultaneous. I had to edit out my "holy s**t" reaction.
This first one in the pack is the loudest hit. The samples in this thunder pack are all 24-bit, and i recorded not directly as output from my mixer but routed it first through software compression and saturation and this first one was so loud it normalized itself during recording. None of the other samples are 'normal'. Notice my neighbor's car alarm going off the thunder was so loud. It's not loud in the mix.
Hail and rain storm recorded in palm beach gardens florida. Used a new rode ntg5 direct to a zoom h6 recorder. Cleaned up in adobe audition. Hail is bouncing off of gutters and cars then turns to a light rain with a hint of thunder in the background.
Recorded on a sony mp3 recorder in the north of adelaide, australia. The rain is easing and the thunder is moving away, the birds you can hear are galahs, sulfur crested cockatoos and rainbow lorikeets.
