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.
A cutlery set (knife and fork) in use. That means hitting a plate. Recorded on a directional "shot gun" microphone in a room free of surround noise. Recorded for a assignment in digital media on university west, sweden 2009.
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.
