Inserting 3. 5 inch floppy-disk into a floppy disk drive, with the typical sliding sound first and then the spring-activated locking mechanism snapping it shut.
Inserting a large 8-inch floppy-disk into a shugart floppy disk drive and closing the plastic front bezel drive latch. Noisy recording with the fan of the enclosure and neighboring system humming along.
Inserting a 5. 25-inch floppy disk into a micropolis 1053 i metafloppy floppy-disk drive. That's the sliding sound at the beginning. The second knock-knock type of sound is the press-down-and-hook drive latch being closed. The micropolis 1053 is a two-drives unit for s-100 bus early computers. This sound was recorded on the upper floppy-drive.
A short sequence of key presses on several keys on a mechanical keyboard. Gaps are completely silent so it should be easy to extract one click for a game or other applications.
I recorded using a zoom h6 with a xy mic and foam screen and handheld. I placed the mic above the keyboards and typed. I started typing at a slow pace and then fast. The first sounds are on a wireless key board and the second were on a laptop keyboard. Recorded for a school project for a sfx library.
Typing on a keyboard. Edited in audacity. Feel free to use this for any animation, game, movie, or project. You don't have to credit me if you don't want to. Edited in audacity.
