There are three of these files. I used the microtrack to record them. I put the mic on an extension and stuffed it inside of an already noisy drive and ran a defrag. These files are samples of the different types of noise that i got. Basically it's a close perspective on a working/struggling hard drive.
Channeling the /dev/sda1 hard drive partition into a file. At last i've imported the raw file properly as the 8-bit unsigned linear pcm. This is 8bit mono 44100 hz windows wave. Lots of strange digital sounds. Quite useful for noise and experimental musicians. Interesting that if we just do cat /dev/sda1 > /dev/dsp we hear different sound more like modem 56k. I also made a record of it. See my files.
Produced in reason as a loop for getting my timing on a certain track in pro tools. . . . . . . . . Very dark when played by itself, tekstep, darkstep.
My g-raid external hard drive turns on. I recorded this with my logitech webcam pro 9000 in audacity. Note: the hard drive isn't as laud as the recording is. I amplified it a lot.
Single-pitch heavy distortion with multi-layer. Mild modulation. Made for a emotionally intense moment in a horror film. Toward the middle you will hear a very quiet rhythmic element. Used a roland groovebox self-sample utility directly to wav, which results in good recordings, though reduced high frequencies.
This is a synth sound taken from a friend then ran through a frequency distortion with some eq delay. To me this sound sounds like a cyber monster from another galaxy making his existence known here.
Power switch is pressed, computer starts up, plays a sound effect through the internal speaker, power switch is pressed again and the computer shuts down. Recorded with a zoom h4n, placed inside the computer.
A plate broke in the house so to avoid trouble we taped it up inside a box. . . Course once it rattled a bit i couldn't help myself. Recorded on an iphone 6.
A hardcore kick i made a few years back. Made a great track out of this, it's called ready to die by my self dre hectik. Hardcore techno. Rave till day break!.
