Shell Sound Effects

Shell sound effects, and the word does a lot of work. Mostly it's brass: spent casings tinkling onto concrete, metal, wood and snow, shotgun shells pushed into a tube. Then the big kind, artillery shells whistling in and exploding. A smaller corner covers the natural sort, crab shells clicking and seashells rattling in a wind chime.

Shell casings are the detail that sells gunfire. Each shot throws a casing out, and the tinkle as it lands tells you what the floor is made of. The recordings here drop several sizes of brass onto lots of surfaces, so a pistol round on tiles and a heavy rifle casing in the dirt both have a match. Shotgun shells add the chunky plastic clack of a Reload. On the battlefield side, incoming artillery gives you the whistle and the hit. Shooters loop casings under every firefight, so plenty of variation helps.
