This recording is of wave ripples hitting the sand on lake superior. This was recorded with a zoom hrn pro handy recorder. It was edited in cubase le 10 focusing on compression and normalization. The mic used was the built-in mic configuration on the unit positioned on a mini tripod 8 inches above the sand.
Short audio clip of a sunny day in the outdoors. Taken in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of insect sounds and the occasional distant honking of a goose or passing car.
A 1khz wave, often used as an effect for a flatline, test pattern, censorship, etc. This one more for effect (such as a movie) than a test tone. This was built with a square waveform for maximum loudness.
Recorded with a tascam dr-1 looking south out of my garage between dallas and ft. Worth, here is 30 minutes of rain and intermittent distant thunder that grows increasingly heavy and then tapers off.
