103 Royalty-Free Audio Tracks for "Old Electronics"

Literally just the bootstrapper for windows 10 converted into an mp3 file. I recommend not doing this yourself as i actually haven't been able to update windows on my old computer since lol.

The sound of scrubbing an fm radio back and forth across the spectrum. There are bits and pieces of stations picked up with static in-between. Recorded using an old analogue radio, connected to a zoom h1 handy recorder.

And old synth that's inhabited many hard drives for a about twenty years and i finally gave it a whirl. Just some random keys played on a midi keyboard. Make what you will of it.

A variation on breakbeat 1,a few more snare hits and an extra kick to shuffle it up a bit. A bit of fuzz across the whole drum mix really does make a difference!normalise for extra volume.

The sound of scrubbing an am radio back and forth across the spectrum. There are bits and pieces of stations picked up, but it's mostly interference. Recorded using an old analogue radio, connected to a zoom h1 handy recorder.

Little breakbeat with skippy snares using one of the chemical kits in reason. Kick and snare were processed separately. A bit of fuzz used across the board to dirty it up a bit and some gentle re verb on the snares and hats.

Some heavy analog glitching achieved by plugging and unplugging my old microphone into a broken audio card. Processed using audacity. You are free to use it anywhere and mix it with anything. No credits required. If used, feel free to leave a link to your product in comments :).

This is the sound of my computer idling (while recording in audacity, but that should make no difference) recorded using an old aiwa stereo microphone, which performs quite well. Don't worry, my computer is not this loud in real life, it's just normalized audio.

A beat i programmed in caustic 2. 1 for my track caustic antics. This is a clean render. See break delay for this beat with a slight ping pong delay. Very little eq/processing so process away. Caustic 2. 1, the best music creation app for android.

808 drum-machine pattern with oldschool monopoly stab/chord. Notes played:. G4 d#4g4d5 f#5c5g4. Dfx buffer override is applied on the 808 kick/lg pattern to add a bouncy style. Can also upload individuals sounds/tracks if asked. . .

The beep tones my old pager makes when it is turned on. There are a couple 'boot up' beeps followed by the 'low battery' warning beeps. I needed some of this sound to use in a theatrical production [ a new brain ]. I recorded it on my laptop computer using a cheep condenser mic and audacity.

I just hooked up an 80's radio to my pc via the aux cord and recorded this horrifying thing whilst searching for a radio station on the d frequency. You can use it anywhere, just ask me before and/or mention the source. Or not.

A sound from 2006 i created and found on one of my old dvd's with this new external dvd drive i just got in from ups. Pretty nice modulation if you ask me. I forgot how i made this sound.

This series is done through layering and processing many samples of drum sounds i synthesised using various plugins namely xoxo's vst's and zynaddsubfx mixed with some old hardware samples i made a long time ago. There are 4 packs of the same series : perc snare kick and hats all using the same process.

I have a lot of old hard drives, some of which are still working and others are damaged. My project is collect the sounds produced during start-up. To do this i use a digital recorder zoom h4n using the two incorporated microphones and two 'diy'ed contact microphones additionally. This here is the sound of a western digital caviar 32500 working fine.

Dug up from an old project. Korg monotribe groovebox processed by a doepfer a-189-1 bit modifier, a lowpass- and a highpass-filter. Recorded using ni maschine. 11. 10. 2013. It's always nice to hear what projects you use these sounds for. Let me know. ;-).

Recorded from line-in from a 13-year-old boombox tuned to the bottom of the am dial and moved around near the computer and printer. You can hear the base computer noise, then at 00:17 you start to hear the radio get closer to the printer which is off but plugged in.

Simple retro video game sound effects created using the amazing, free chiptone tool. Http://sfbgames. Com/chiptone. For this pack i selected the hurt generator as a starting point. I tried to stick to c as the root note. It's always nice to hear back from you. What projects did you use these sounds for?please let me know. ;-).

This is reminiscent of the sound playing in friday the 13th pt. 2 when jenny puts on pamela vorhees old sweater and pretends to be her in an attempt to trick jason. One of the lines she repeats during the scene is "jason, mother is talking to you", hence the file name. This was made in fl studio using morphine. Its got a very eerie sound to it thats for sure. Use it in you horror score or for whatever you like.

It is an old otis brand elevator, in a 10-story building. You can see that the elevator motor is so old that it was manufactured with relay contacts and not with an electronic board.

Recorded from line-in from a 13-year-old boombox tuned to the bottom of the am dial and placed near the computer. You can hear the cd-player starting up, working, stopping, working again. At one point i skip through a track with winamp creating a choppy sound. When the cd player stops you can hear the base computer noise.

Old Key by Loyalty Freak Music

Trying to recreate an old patch. This was totally wrong way. . .

Old-school sound made with analog modular synth - the old way. . . The reverb is a spring reverb - what else. . . ?.

8 seconds from this soundhttps://freesound. Org/people/gis_sweden/sounds/483638/mixed with thishttps://freesound. Org/people/gis_sweden/sounds/415237/and you get some thing else.

Bought an old sony walkman from an antique mall. It was advertised as "radio works, but cassette player does not play. " this was true, and i was surprised at the noises it made when you tried to play tapes, though whether or not you have a tape or not it makes these types of noises when you switch it to the metal/chrome setting with dolby b on. You can add a 60 hertz hum if you touch any of the metal parts, and can somewhat mess the sound by messing with the spindles as they move. I may upload some more samples of this at one point, with cleaner recording of each of the sounds you can create.

Recording of piano (physical, not electronic keyboard) tones and a chord (mostly c in different octaves), made quickly with cellphone with a little bit of noise, hopefully can still be useful.

A fun "whooshy" intro from a project never finished. Clocked around 150 bpm. Old project, not sure what that chord is and the end of the intro :).

Sample of an old combo organ set to its "violin" setting. Recorded with a rme babyface using cubase.

Impulse response from a teisco 450e delay/chorus effect unit. Old and grungy delay with max feedback. Requires lots of filtering before use but authentic and rare. .

Sounds like you are in a futuristic city terminal. This is of course meant to represent only one of many sounds - it is not complete without other futuristic sounds (if you want to make a futuristic city terminal atmosphere!). This sound reminds me of an old third-person shooter game which was released/published back in the days (year 2000!) -- messiah!. This sound can for example be used in sci-fi games, for example when the player is walking in a huge futuristic city terminal, or is interacting with an ai - you name it!. If you enjoyed the sound, please rate, comment, spread! it really helps!. Note: make sure to check out the other matrixxx-sounds! the sound quality is always better when you download the sound(s)! ⛄. Enjoy!/matrixxx.

This is the original 8-second drum loop that i ran through akaizer for my "sci-fi ambient drone" upload. It's creative commons cc0, so please treat it as public domain. You can use it in any commercial or non-commercial media for free, no restrictions. I took a quick 8-second drum loop from my teenage engineering po-33 (ko) and ran it through a free time-stretching/pitch-shifting program called akaizer. This program is based on old samplers like the akai s1000 that had extremely artifact-heavy time-stretching and pitch-shifting features. If you slow a sound down enough, the final product tends to sound harsh and electric. Akaizer turned my 8-second drum loop into 2 minutes and 38 seconds of harsh, bassy noise. As you can hear from my other uploads, the results are so different it's almost unrecognizable. Definitely worth trying yourself!.

Sample of an old combo organ set to its "violin" setting. Recorded with a di-box and a rme babyface using cubase. Have fun!.

Reel for the makenoise morphagene. Recordings from the analog studio in den bosch, the netherlands. Old electronic measuring tools used to test rf equipment. Oscillators through a bandpass filter and ring modulation with a lot of feedback. Switching noises. Pure sine. Phase locked loop. Things like that. Enjoy.

This is old and my memory not what it used to be. However, i do recall hitting a steel ruler against an empty paint tin and making some sort of popping sound with my voice. Then exposing it to terrible amounts of electronic torture until it melted with sonic extacy!.

Electro-magnetic interference from a desktop computer, and an at&t; cordless phone handset cl82301 when held near the internal ferrite antenna on the back right of a 13-year-old boombox listening to the am broadcast band. Recorded 2 years ago so i forget where i was listening. Recorded with goldwave from line-in. You hear emi from the computer at first, then i bring the phone on standby near the radio and you hear a series of nearly pure tones. The phone comes on and you hear a distorted dial tone. I move the phone away from the radio for a few seconds and you hear the computer again, then i bring the phone near and you hear a distorted busy signal. I disconnect and the phone continues sending to the base for a few seconds so you just hear a hum, then the idle tones are heard, then the computer noise as i remove the phone.

Here's a old geiger counter with the tube held by a radioactive test sample, probably / hopefully fairly well decayed. Audio is recorded by hanging the headphones on a blue bluebird condenser, as the headphone connector is an unusual 1/2 inch threaded thing. The serial number of this unit is 71605.

Sampled from an old transistor organs rhythm unit. Recorded with a rme babyface. Cut and processed using audacity, reaper and ocenaudio. It's always nice to hear what projects you use these sounds for. Let me know. ;-).

Insects (i think mostly crickets) make this noise. It sounds so. . . Infernal!, or futuristic (electronic for sure). I recorded this (with my old zoom ii recorder) one summer night in tlacotlapan, at the southern mexican state of veracruz. All this happened for hours inside my hotel room. So you can imagine what kind of night i have. Wonderful memories.

Used as part of an old time radio show live production. . . I used two toy ray guns and fired them at close range and distant range. . . Various rates of firing. . . As if in a "space patrol" ray-gun battle with aliens. . . 48 khz at 16 bit - using sony mini-disc recorder 2009 - interior.

upspeeded version of the previous theme 1. Wav*made with lmmsused sound: bit invader, arpeggio sus4 with some range. Time peaked at 75ms and vokalformant-filter at 50bpm 4/4. Feel free to use.

My floureon bm 800 tends to get a loud buzz when not used for a while. . . And a good old smack literally fixes it. I did this naturally for this sound sample, but i figured it would make an interesting sound to post here. I would very much like to read how you used this sound in the comments, it's fun to see how people use my stuff. Given the cc0 license, you don't have to credit me of course, it is in the public domain after all, but i wouldn't exactly come complaining if you did!.

Electro-magnetic interference from the colorino talking color identifier and light probe when held near the internal ferrite antenna on the back right of a 13-year-old boombox near the bottom of the am broadcast band, from 530 to 580 khz. You first hear the device inactive being brought near the radio. This gives a low buzz of stacato clicks. At about 00:23 the light probe button is briefly pushed, you hear a quick boop of the light probe with low light level combined with the beginning of the white noise of the device active. If you put your ear near it after you use it, you will hear a slight hiss from the audio amplifier carrier idling for about a minute after last use. On the am radio this translates to white noise. At 00:26 there is a double click and a distorted voice says black. The voice is being picked up by the am radio. 10 seconds of white noise and i press the color button again and it says black. I put something else over the color sensor and it says a few more things. At 00:51 i hold down the light probe button and try to point it at the light above my desk while still holding it close enough to the radio to pick up the emi signal. You hear a warbling tone at 00:59 as the light reaching the sensor increases and decreases in brightness depending on how it's pointed. The signal fades in and out as the device is moved around. This has all happened at 530 khz. At 01:37 i step the radio up to 580 khz where you get a stronger signal. Wibw from topeka competes with the noise throughout the rest of the file. At 01:51 you hear the distorted error beep as i press the color button without anything but air and light in front of the color sensor. It must be pressed up against the thing you want the color of, or it gets in too much ambient light and errors out with a loud protesting beep.
