6 Royalty-Free Audio Tracks for "Dampening"

Cherp, cherp, cherp. . . (blink. . . ) (silence) (cough).

Charcoal placed into a makeshift recording bed/pallet with a fabric for dampening. Recorded with zoomh5 at 96hz. Raw file recordings with a bit of noise reduction.

I've recorded myself firing up, smoking the cigarette; then dampening it down in the metal ashtray. Mic: audio technica at2050, cardioid, off-axis. Through art tube mp preamp.

Inflation of nos balloon recorded on wide diaphragm condenser, with acoustic dampening around the mic but not in studio conditions - should be pretty cool for a non synthy noise sweep, or for a snare layer.

Made with a butt ton of reverberation decay, modifications to high dampening and the layering of many swishing knifes together to create a suspenseful sound effect. The application of this sound could be used for the penultimate release of something utter horrifying to be revealed on screen, chase scenes or simply an underscore/tension builder for the now victims of a monstrosity coming at them for a bit of a nibble.

The doorbell in my apartment is so loud and obnoxious i decided to share my pain with the rest of the world, lol. In all seriousness, hopefully someone finds it useful for their production. The first sample is the purest, with the last two i *attempted* some dampening, but the difference is really inaudible. Recorded with zoom h6 (xy capsule), minimal processing done (loudness normalization, slight panning rebalance, hi-pass @ 40hz).
