Submerge Sound Effects

Submerge sound effects, some recorded from both sides of the surface at once, with a mic above the water and a hydrophone below as fabrics and other objects go under. Mugs, bottles, coconut shells and metal get dunked too. Hot and burning things get plunged in, with the fizz that follows. Bubbles and deep underwater textures fill in the rest. Wet, obviously.

The trick with a submerge is the switch. Above the surface you hear the splash, and the moment the camera goes under everything turns muffled and close. With both mics recorded together you can cut between them on the frame and they still line up. For coming back up, the same series covers the Emerge side. Once you're down there, the Underwater textures, currents and pressure rumbles hold a scene for as long as it needs. Some of the source has also been reworked into cave ambiences, with single drops in matching reverb, for when the dive ends somewhere dark.
