Found this plastic tube while digging in the garden. Apparently part of childs toy. Now the cat enjoys rolling it around. It's soothing like a tuned wind chime. Give a listen.
Me and my aunt went spring cleaning in the attic the other day and found a squeaky object (a squeaker, perhaps? i don't know the actual word). I thought it would be a good sound effect so i recorded it.
Equipment used: edirol r-09. My nephew playing with his toy bus, spending the day playing with it without worries. I sat beside him and started recording.
Small wind-up toy being wound up and allowed to walk by the mic. The wind-up key is then abused a bit, making a sound not entirely unlike a scratching record (but not much like one, either).
This is an old toy made of metal. It has a handle on top which turns to produce the sound. It is supposed to play a simple melody but it is broken and only plays one pitch.

This was a battery-powered train car running in circles on its plastic track. Is the sound pleasant? no. Did i hold my zoom h4n upside-down in the center of the circuit so the engine slowly pans from ear to ear? absolutely.
