Two custom contact mics clipped to a moka pot whislt heated on a gas hob. The sound of the metal expanding can be clearly heard and the coffee flow sound is audible towards the end of the recording. Tascam dr-22wl, custom stereo contact microphones20-05-10_091458_dr-22wl_moka_coffee_contact. Wav.
A 3-inch folding pocket-knife opening and closing. Recorded very close to the microphone. Makes a snick/click sound. The sharp blade folds into a steel housing so the sound is metal on metal. Recorded: august 2014, with android voice recorder (mono), inside/evening in very quiet room. Noise reduction with audacity.
I took this sample from a phone message. I did use a live feed,(from the headset output on my phone, through a cable into my digital recorder. ) but it is very soft. When i tried recording with out the live feed, i couldn't even find the noise again. It could definitely use to be amped up a bit.
My friend's tv makes this weird boom bass sound everytime you turn it on. I recorded it and made a simple beat out of it! it'z the hip-hop television star! :d.
A 3kw electric fan heater switches on, runs for a few seconds, then gets switched off, thus demonstrating my mastery over small electrical appliances. Olympus ls-5, built-in mic capsules, no filtering.
Recording of my finger snap inside my living room. Recorded and processed at 24bit 96khz using the tascam dr-40 linear pcm recorder. Processing: gain-staging and soft high and low frequency filtering. No eq boost or cuts anywhere else. Also de-noised.
An old laptop making weird sounds. It freeze, typing on the keyboard, than crashes and reboots. The fan was broken at that point. Recorded with an iphone 5c.
