Compartment Sound Effects

Compartment sound effects for the little doors and lids that open on machines. The tape door on a personal cassette player, and the storage compartments in cars and a camper van. Small details. Most of them sit inside bigger vehicle and gadget sessions, recorded on the real machines alongside the engines and switches.

On a personal cassette player the compartment is half the handling: the eject, the tape going in and the lid pushed shut before the buttons come into play. Those recordings are detailed, headphones included. On vehicles the compartments come as part of the interior and exterior foley, opened and closed, and some sessions carry on into the mechanical and electrical side of the machine. Small sounds, but they do a lot. A compartment clicked shut suits a road trip, a stakeout in a parked car or a character hiding something in a hurry.
