Daily Doors brings you more than 120 household doors (those ones present in every project) opening and closing, recorded simultaneously from a close and a distant perspective. One of the main problems with doors is that they tend to sound "too close". A door will sound different depending on where the microphone is placed. By using two different mics, we tried to achieve that goal.

Close perspective is around 50cm far away from the source, whereas the distant one is around 2-3 meters far away, depending on the room size.

Distant perspective is in M/S. Both M/S Decoded and RAW are included in the library, so you can play with it as you please: using only the close one, using both close and distant, using just the distant one, making it mono, wider... The list is endless.

Unless it wasn't possible due to the nature of the sound, all sounds were recorded in two different intensities: Hard and Soft. Each file contains at least 3 different takes, making a total of more than 1400 door sounds.

Some other actions, apart from opening and closing, have been also included, such as knocking on doors, slamming, forcing handles, locking and unlocking doors, door chains and latches.

All files are in 96 kHz/24 bit and meta-tagged, both in Soundminer and BWAV.

Gear Used:

Close Perspective: Sennheiser 8050, Sennheiser 416

Distant Perspective: Sennheiser 418, AKG CK93 & 94, Zoom H2n

Recorders: Zoom F8, Sound Devices 633

Cicadas is a collection of summer ambiences recorded in Southern Spain over the course of 2018 summer. You will get massive chorus in different densities and areas, individual chirps, and a designed section.
The temperatures during this time of the year are so high, ranging from 30ºC to 45ºC (86ºF to 113ºF), that cicadas are always present in daytime. The higher the temperatures, the more cicadas chirp. Having this in mind, some recordings from early June have less cicadas than the ones recorded in July and August. In addition to this, there are recordings both in the morning, where the cicadas are not so many but are already present, and in the evening, chirping all of them as a chorus after a whole day under the sun.
