Resonant Sound Effects

Resonant sound effects for things that carry on ringing after they're hit. Metal gates squeaking and banging as the wind works them, recorded through contact microphones, and a metal sculpture resonating in the wind. Raw and strange. Then the designed side takes over, with drones and dark textures for horror, and whooshes and interface accents that leave a tail behind them.

Metal is where resonance lives, and the gate recordings show it: tonal squeaks and bangs from a range of gates in winds of varying strength, all of them looped. Contact microphones pick up the vibration inside the metal rather than the air around it, which gives a closer and stranger result than an ordinary microphone. The wind sculpture comes raw and designed, as otherworldly ambiences and drones for drama and horror. Lighter work sits alongside. Accent covers designed interface alerts and readouts, and Airy whooshes run from subtle swipes to thick ones. It all suits haunted ruins as well as sci-fi menus that need a little weight behind them.
