This was created as the sound of bullets hitting robots. I dropped coins on a music stand and then pitch shifted them. Oktava 012 microphone through neve preamp and apogee mini-me a/d.
From a sample set made in 2003 using vinyl records on a motor-less (i. E. Hand driven) turntable. All sounds in this set are less than 1 sec long, so can be good for percussion hits, sfx, etc.
This sound is made to sound like water dropping on a stone floor. It was actually made by stirring water around with a stick and hitting a table with the same stick.
Hit a glass vase with my finger(s), mostly ankle has some nice accoustic. -variating hits. Recorded with a ultra cheap microphone unit of my mp3 player. Reduced noise.
