Residential Ambiences

In Residential Ambiences, you will get the sounds of 15 different recordings of residential atmospheres with a duration of 10 minutes each so there’s no need to loop.

Recordings have been done during five different periods of a day. Each one includes three versions:

– Early Morning
– Morning
– Afternoon
– Evening
– Night

Recordings feature sounds such as dozens of birds singing in the early morning, dove calls in the morning as the same time traffic gets noisier, human activities in the background in the afternoon distant traffic and voices in the evening, and sirens wailing in distance at night.

Some of the birds included are doves, sparrows, crows, a cock, woodpeckers, blackcaps, magpies, and pigeons.

Since some of the files are extremely quiet (mainly in the evening and at night), descriptive markers have been included to highlight interesting events in an otherwise featureless waveform. These markers can be read in programs such as Izotope RX, Reaper, and Soundminer. The markers are also included as .txt files in separate folder.

All files have been recorded in 96 kHz/24 bit with Soundminer and BWAV embedded metadata.
