Multiple takes of a zippo lighter lid being opened and closed, recorded with zoom h4n on-board stereo mics. Please let me know what you think! constructive criticism is especially welcome!.
Me taking dvd case from table, opening it, taking the dvd out from the case and then putting it back, closing the case and putting it back to table. Recorded with laptop mic, hum reducing and other edit done in audacity.
Recording of a door being opened and closed, and then opened and closed again. Very slight footsteps (on carpet) can be heard. The microphone (sennheiser mkh-50) was intentionally placed about 5 feet away from the door so as to capture some of the natural room sound/reverb (which is very subtle). I have another recording available of the exact same door and mic setup, but aimed slightly off-axis to capture just a bit more room sound. Recorded into a tascam 208i audio interface and into adobe audition. Very minor processing (low-cut at 80hz to remove low-freq rumble).
Recliner couch closes up, with springs reverberation. Two takes, the first one is cleaner but the second has a bit more character. Recorded with røde ntg-3 into a canon c200. Exported as 48k wav out of premiere pro.
Rolling luggage back and forth on a concrete floor in a basement. Medium close, far, close. Recorded with the zoom h6 stereo mic at 90 degrees. Minimal editing, just some crossfades.
In order, the first sound is the turning of a doorknob and opening an exterior door; the second is the closing and latching of the same door; the third is the engagement of a deadbolt lock, and the fourth is the disengagement of the deadbolt. Recorded with an iphone and external microphone.
I was searching for good door sounds, but i couldn't find any, so i recorded myself opening my door. Recorded with samsung galaxy s7 edge, and cleaned up in audacity. I think the result came out nicely :)i hope you can use it.
