46 Royalty-Free Audio Tracks for "Artifact"

Transformer.

Sound for glitch effects.

This is a very brief noise chunk that an old macintosh 68040 produced in the format translation process between application programs.

Onic chai sounscape.

Noise left after dithering and phase canceling a tone. A tone was created with audacity's tone generator. Another version of the tone was made by downsampling and dithering the original tone in ableton live. I then phase cancelled the two sounds by switching the polarity of one of the tones and blending them back together in audacity. Because of the phase canceling, none of the original tone can be heard. Only the noise added during dithering remains.

Recording of silence with heavy noise reduction and processing.

Microphone feedback of varying lengths. Made by jamming earphone bud into the recorder's microphone with varying pressure, then cleaning out low end rumbling. Recorder: sony pcm-d100.

Artifacts in recording could be a problem, but what will be if you record only them?. . . Crazy idea? probably. There, i've mixed eight records of „nothing” from my microphone.

Weird artifact from processing another sound. Sounds like a scifi computer.

Sound made from digital noise the "soundman digital recorder dr2" generates. Took a 2 seconds of noise and applied paulstretch.

Soft synth with a huge reverb tail made with ubermod.

This is what happens when you make audacity open itself using the import any file function, it's kinda like eating you're own head.

Anti-radio.

Click from audio recording that sounds worthy of military radio. Goes well with sound assets found at https://assetstore. Unity. Com/publishers/30636.

created and formatted for use in the make noise morphagene. The sounds contain elements that i’m drawn to like dynamics, distortion, rhythm, and artifact noise. If users are looking for noise floors, breathing drum loops, and grimy textures, hopefully they will find it inspiring or useful enough to let it occupy the 64. 7 mb of space on their microsd cards. .

A set of variations of a scary soundscape. May come in handy if you find an alien artifact and you want to show it on youtube and need some acoustic colours for it. Entirely made on a pc with software. No mic or instrument used. Most of the software i used for this is available for free. Mainly used: antopya, chimera and the alchemy player. .

[item_01. Wav]. Shiny object of value. If you enjoyed the sound, please star, comment, spread the word!🗣 it really helps! 🎯. Note: make sure to check out the other sounds! the sound quality is always better when you download the sound(s)! ⭐. More content otw!/matrixxx aka lil mati.

Sound of activated item. For game development.

Or some acid sounds… and drone. All in oneused filters are> doepfer a-124 special edition, the wasp filter> uoki-toki polivoks vcf> intellijel μvcfdidnt plan to upload this to freesound, but read this. Okay filter freaks. . . The frequency analysis reveals a peak around 20khz. Through all of the track? almost. What is that? (when i converted the file to mp3 the peak disappears. . . ) one clue could be that i use the filter as vcas too?i have applied normalisation, compression and limiter in audacity. A "documentary" at https://www. Youtube. Com/watch?v=wtzfkg3mxcgin the film i use the mp3-file.

Sound created from making artifacts from a wavetable, then resampled into audio multiple times with different reverbs and effects. . Mainly auto filters, eq, etc.

Original file created using steinberg's padshop pro vsti. Heavily processed using reafir from the reaplugs vst fx suite. Http://www. Reaper. Fm/reaplugs/. It's always nice to hear back from you. What projects did you use these sounds for?please let me know. ;-).

Anti-radio.

Another artifact, something have been closed or whateva. . .

26. 01. 2016. Played around with the doepfer a-188-2 tapped bbd module. Recorded with a rme babyface and cubase.

A strange audio artifact in my korg kronos.

A shimmery noise, presumably from a magical object/artifact. Generated in gladiator vst.

126. 5 bpm loop made from ultra-high-frequency glitch noises. Weird fun interp artifact tones at increased speeds.

Hungry kittens attempting to make vocal noises as food is being prepared against a background mechanical drone. Noise reduction artifact adds to the creepy effect.

Birds singing in the morning. Small town, with a little bit of morning traffic. A bit of wind artifact. Recorded with zoom h4n.

Recorded with a h4n. Sunny afternoon in the small suburb. A truck passes by, stops at a stop sign and continues on his journey. There's a bit of singing birds and a tiny bit of wind artifact.

The squeak sounds you hear are not in the original sound once downloaded. They are a strange artifact on this websites playback widget i think. 13 seconds of rain i quickly recorded today at my back door. Recorded with a zoom h5.

Windy surburban night. Recorded with h4n and rycote windjammer. There is stills light wind artifact at times. Recorded on ground level from the backyard. Chimes, leaves, grass, crickets. A lovely night. Recorded for a long time to get a nice sound reference.

Birds singing in the afternoon spring. Small suburb town, a few cars pass by, a bit of wind chime sound. At a particular spot a little fly comes say hello. A bit of wind artifact again, sorry! recorded with zoom h4n. :).

We wanted to add some tape delay to a piano track we were recording. This is an artifact that came from routing the third delay track back to the source track. Essentially, a quick two second feedback loop. Recorded with a peluso p12 and an akg 414.

Water dropping on tile and metal drain randomly, with a distinct rythm that slows down towards the end of the file. Recorded with zoom h4n embedded mics, quickly edited on protools for gain, noise reduction and artifact removal. Still a little noisy, though.

I think i've made this out of a hg fortune synth but i can't remember which one and like usual, done in fl studio with quite some eqing applied to it too. Excuse the popping though, it's an artifact caused by the synth.

A short piece of melody. . . Sound is an artifact extracted from one of test records in new audacity. It sounds like a saw. . . Or something? idk. This piece sounds kinda exotic because i used the second half of harmonic e-minor scale. So some people could use this combination (descending harmonic scale) before (even now i can remember two examples. ).

Windy suburban night. Recorded from a upstairs bedroom window with a h4n. Wind chime. Cars passing by in the distance. Metallic bang from garden ornament. A tiny bit of wind artifact which the rycote wind jammer didn't catch. Crickets singing happily. Very big gush of wind can be heard near the end of the sound file.

This is the audio sample from the disco led hack. Posted here: http://www. Darsha. Org/artwork/disco-led-hack/. Description:this is a how-to video that illustrates how to hack into a self-flickering led. This experiment was conducted during the musicmakers hacklab at the artifact festival at the stuk kunstzentrum in leuven, belgium. With arvid jense, elvire flocken-vitez and create digital music. Sample available here!thanks amine mentani!.

Insane stereo effects and powerful dance beat. If you listen at the end you can hear a voice saying "take em off" over and over. I swear to god i did not put that in there it is a artifact from the effects. I created these perfect drum beat/loops using my yamaha psr463 synthesizer, my zoomr8 portable studio, hydrogen, electric drums and audacity.

This is the companion audio to the article "modify your monitor audio" appearing on w1zy's substack account. In it, we hear what happens when you mix through a soundboard the audio from a ham radio transmitter's "monitor" output and a second receiver dialed onto the transmitter's output frequency. When the two are mixed, we hear a heterodyning between the external receiver and the transmitter monitor audio sources. By adjusting the receiver's frequency to that of the transmitted signal, we can zero-beat the two audio sources together producing a "flange" effect derived from analog devices. Non-ham audio enthusiasts might find this clip interesting since it is producing this artifact not through some plug-in, but through use of "legacy" analog equipment.

Underwater [loop] amb. Update: i have decided to release this sfx for free, public domain. Enjoy! :). Please like and share!. A loop-able ambiance of being submerged in water for your underwater needs. This one was particularly difficult to process as i had to layer many scuba diving sounds in one order to get this effect. Only after crushing many frequencies via eq, is when it gets this deep. Get it? deep like an ocean? no? okay i swim away now. . . Enjoy =). - noise reduction- high pass at 30khz- artifact removal- noise removal- bass enhancement- low pass- layering- stereo imaging- stereo widening. Details:. - gopro hero 4- 48khz- 24bit- wav.

This is the original 8-second drum loop that i ran through akaizer for my "sci-fi ambient drone" upload. It's creative commons cc0, so please treat it as public domain. You can use it in any commercial or non-commercial media for free, no restrictions. I took a quick 8-second drum loop from my teenage engineering po-33 (ko) and ran it through a free time-stretching/pitch-shifting program called akaizer. This program is based on old samplers like the akai s1000 that had extremely artifact-heavy time-stretching and pitch-shifting features. If you slow a sound down enough, the final product tends to sound harsh and electric. Akaizer turned my 8-second drum loop into 2 minutes and 38 seconds of harsh, bassy noise. As you can hear from my other uploads, the results are so different it's almost unrecognizable. Definitely worth trying yourself!.

This is a sci-fi ambient drone sound i made. It's creative commons cc0, so please treat it as public domain. You can use it in any commercial or non-commercial media for free, no restrictions. For those curious how i made this, i took a quick 8-second drum loop from my pocket operator po-33 (ko) and ran it through a free time-stretching/pitch-shifting program called akaizer. The program's based on old samplers like the akai s1000 that had extremely artifact-heavy time-stretching and pitch-shifting features. If you slow a sound down enough, the final product tends to sound harsh and electric. Akaizer turned my 8-second drum loop into 2 minutes and 38 seconds of harsh, bassy noise, pretty damn close to the final. Then i imported the file (we'll call it file a) into reaper, my daw. Track 1 has reaeq with a high-shelf acting like a low-pass. Its curve is set at 1386. 2 hz, gain at -inf, and bandwidth at 2. In retrospect, i have no idea why i didn't use a low-pass. Track 1 has a send to a blank track 2, which has a fab-filter pro-q 3 high-pass filter with a 12db slope. It's at 320. 57hz, q is 1. 096. After the eq, track 2 has valhalla shimmer set to the black hole preset with no changes. Track 3 is the default file a with valhalla shimmer on the black hole setting, but with two tweaks. Low-cut is at 30hz, high-cut is at 6630hz. Everything else is the same. That's followed by fab-filter pro-q 3 with these eq settings:-0. 72db at 69. 463hz, q at 1. 007. -1. 11db at 536. 64hz, q at 1. 013, dynamic eq (click "make dynamic" and leave everything as-is). The point of this dynamic eq is to give a slight drop in gain in the 500hz region, which tends to get muddy in larger mixes. I wasn't sure if i'd use this for a larger project, and i didn't want build-up in that region from the already large-sounding track 1 and 2. The ocassional eq drops here also adds a warble to the final mix that helps sell an analog, electrical sound. +0. 85db at 3697. 3hz, q at 1. 009. This is to add subtle airiness to the drone. It seems weird to have "airiness" in the 3-4k region, but it's the sort of rumbliness of the sound traveling away and dissipating in the atmosphere after the lowest drone sounds. My volume fader settings for all 3 tracks:. Track 1: -8. 59 dbtrack 2: -6. 46 dbtrack 3: -6. 43 db. On my master bus, i have izotope imager 9 with these settings:. Band 1: width at -100 (mono) for 59hz and below. Band 2: nothing at 60hz to 525hz (width at 0). Band 3: width at 48. 1 for 526 to 1. 4khz. Band 4: width at 49. 4 at 1. 4khz and above. Stereoize is set to 6. 4ms on mode i. And that's it! no compressors or limiters anywhere, since i liked how dynamic the actual tracks were and i figure you can always add your own compressor or limiter to the final if you want. I've also added the original po-33 drum loop on my page, as well as the loop after it was run through akaizer but before it hit reaper in case you want to do your own processing. Enjoy :).
