Some rain recorded outside of the house that we stayed in at Cordoba, Argentina.

This series of sounds was recorded using a Tascam Portacapture X8 at 32bit/96000 Hz using the ORTF configuration.

The audio was edited using Reaper.

The idea of the Cordoba project is to share some natural sounds that can be used for multiple purposes like films or games.

Royalty free!!

Enjoy and please if you want to use all the Bibox library sounds, please mention us in your credits :)

Happy editing!

Badwolf Underpass Cricket Interrupted

What you hear in this track are the very high pitched and ultrasonic parts of the crickets songs slowed down and brought into the audible spectrum. Originally these frequencies were mostly between 20 and 40 kHz, well beyond our normal hearing range. 
The result sounds quite unusual, a bit creepy and extraterrestrial but also very cool. It doesn't sound like crickets anymore, more like dinosaurs, I imagine... or a gang of drunk roosters... LOL

Frogs in the first weeks of activity of the year. It was the warmest night so far, unusually high and although I went to the lake's edge, they were so loud that they could be heard from a long distance. This is also a place to see and hear herons and sometime storks, but this night it was all for the frogs.
I was testing out a Zoom F3 for the second time.

Frogs in the Countryside

One a series of recordings I made recently at the Boyana Lake in Vitosha National Park in Bulgaria. What's interesting about this recording is that it was done at dusk and along with the last bird calls for the day halfway through the recording you can hear a bat approaching the microphones and echolocating them. Of course while I was recording I just saw the bat flying around the microphones but did not hear it because the sounds that it makes are far above the normal human hearing range and even its wings are super quiet. Then in post production I selectively pitched down these sounds in order to make them audible for us.
