An electric garage door opener is activated and slowly closes, with some mechanical shuddering just before it finishes. Single-car garage, bare stud walls, everything's old and a bit tired.

Garage door opening, electric motor, single garage. Edited with audacity. Recorded on shock-mounted zoom h1 mic, record level 62, autogain off, gain low. Record location, inside a car in a single garage (great sound room).
Quad (l,rlsrs) of a mechanical garage door opener opening the door. Very squeaky while opening. Recorded at a near perspective. Recorded with a zoom h2n in surround mode.
We have a really old garage door that apparently is not very well lubricated. The squeaking adds a nice creepy feel, recorded using a zoom h4n field recorder.
Impulse response generated from field recordings of a parking garage. Recorded using an audio technica bp4029 m/s shotgun microphone into a zoom h4n recorder. This recording is part of a pack of impulse responses comparing different recording and post-processing techniques. A full explanation of the experiment and recording process is presented in this video: https://youtu. Be/nm65zx3u7me. Sweep recordings were deconvolved using voxengo deconvolver.
I took my snare drum into the wonderfully echoey parking garage of my building to record the reverb. Included are samples recorded from varying distances and positions. Also included are dry versions, recorded in a living room and a super-dry elevator. When used in a production, try mixing in the heavily reverbed snares against the dry ones to fit your taste. Also the reverb snares work well mixed under even unrelated percussions to add a neat ambiance. The same goes for my "stairwell foot stomps" sample set. Recorded 24-bit stereo with a sony pcm-d50. Assisted by matt mcgowin.
Ambient foley, recorded myself playing the piano on an old 80s cassette recorder. . . Stretched it and ran it through a convolution reverb. This is the result, almost sounds like the intro to a burial track. Would work great in ambient music.
Large cardboard box full of broken glass shards being repeatedly picked up and dropped, shaken, and then the glass smashed up into smaller pieces inside the box.
Came up with my own version of a windmill, following instructions on another site:. Http://www. Garagegames. Com/community/blogs/view/11231. Though instead of pitch-shifting some of the sounds as instructed, i time-stretched them (also affecting the pitch) to give them a bigger feel. .
A large pane of mirror glass sitting across two sawhorses is drummed on, making a surprisingly big resonant drum sound. At about 0:18 the inevitable happens: several extra smashing and shattering sounds are audible after the initial break.
