Port Sound Effects

Port sound effects, from busy cargo terminals to harbours on the coast. Container cranes and straddle carriers keep the terminal moving, with alarms and trucks around them, recorded in winter with no birds about. The coastal side is livelier. Seagulls and waves, harbour activity and distant ships. Now and then a strong wind drives the sea into the rocks.

An industrial port and a seaside harbour do very different jobs in a scene. The terminal recordings capture the machinery that moves containers, giant cranes and straddle carriers with alarms and trucks around them, and recording in winter kept the birds out of the way. That suits a crime thriller down on the docks or a game level among the shipping containers. The coastal sets are softer. Seagull calls over the waves, village squares by the water and beaches with people on them. Cargo ports and distant ships sit somewhere in the middle, and they suit a quiet Dock at dawn as well as a busy waterfront.
