Braun model 3105 coffee maker. Multiple takes of picking up and replacing the glass carafe on the hotplate. The left channel is a sennheiser mkh-416 and the right channel is an akg c414 b-uls, both into a john hardy m-1 preamp into pro tools. Each mic has a slightly different recording position. The akg has more of a "room" perspective whereas the sennheiser gives a close up, detailed perspective.

I recorded the sound of my keurig disposing coffee into my glass mug using a zoom h4n recorder and a rode m3 microphone. I imagine this recording would be used nicely in an audio documentary as active sound, or as background noise beneath a conversation.
