[microsound] Computer Sound Recordings & Machines recordings

[AΓΧΙΒΑΤΕΙΝ]

I recorded a lot of computer sounds for my last album a year ago,

I used inductive coils, electromagnetic receivers, ultrasonic sensors and film piezos - all of them gave excellent results !

I bought the inductive coils from maplin.co.uk - all the rest I soldered them myself - it' s not really difficult just remember to use a DI box or some buffer else you' re gonna loose all the bass !
