Ctrl Alt Del, I know what sound you're talking about... the nature of this sound makes me think that it could be replicated/produced by modulated delay (i.e. flanging) |

MD recorders are anywhere from around 150 to 500 bucks depending on what features you want. Mine cost 200 dollars including a 4 year warranty from best buy... |

yep, there's some good ideas kickin around here -- i always used to beat a rhythm with the coins in my pocket -- an old idea i had was to start a track like a play -- in the street or something, and then someone beat the rhythm with the change in their pocket, then have it merge into real percussion &tc-- so it would be like a daydream being made real :) |

TANDY/RADIO SHACK do a real neat mic for recording enviromental sounds...I think it's called a PZM mic (not 100% on that) and it's flat... I think they are only about £10 i.e. well cheap for a mic... but apparently a lot of pros use them when capturing sounds out n about... You could go for one of those little digital notetakers that you can pick up very cheap - check out Tandy... |

i took my laptop to guitar center to record everything in their drum section, crunching cans, crumbling paper tin foil or anything of the sort, dropping the mic on the floor, ive also circuit bent a few things that make some crazy noise. i took the laptop to my work too and recorded a blender, quisonart, buzzing from the fridge, and all sorts of sounds from the espresso machine. and the cash register too. take random items and put them in various sizes of pots and pans and roll them around and shake them. ideas i have but havent tried. (they require mics that are desposable) 1)crushing a mic in a trash compactor. 2)a mic in a blender 3)a mic in a microwave(that one might even mess the microwave up, but im thinking the mic might pick up sounds that arent there when the electrodes start shooting around) 4)how bout getting a really long mic chord(like 30 feet or more) and throwing the mic out the window of a moving car. 5)hide a mic in a preschool classroom 6)descize a mic to look like something really odd and let kids try and figure out what it is while youre recording 7)run over a mic 8)find a stair well that is really echoey and throw it down the stairs 9)drag it behind your bike 10)shove it into the blades of a fan 11)various explosives attacked to the mic 12)shoot the mic 13)OH I JUST HAD ANOTHER ONE! put a tiny kkk outfit on a mic and leave it in a black neiborhood(obviously dont let people know its yours, this needs a wireless system) and record what they say and how they trash it :D ALL OF THESE IDEAS WOULD MAKE A WONDERFUL CONCEPT NOISE ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW TO MIS USE A MICROPHONE!!!!! MY GOD IM GOING TO DO IT SO DONT TAKE MY IDEA!!!! |

ive circuit bent a small radio and a toy electronic guitar type keyboard. i know very little of what im doing but i read a little up on how potentiometers work and capacitors and what not and then i just started connecting wires where they didnt belong till i heard noise. i dont have amazing results, just "virtually" uncontrollable noise. then i sample it. i didnt have any luck with the math and spell. and i killed the toy drum machine. |

um... part of the fun of making your own samples is the fact that you know they are your own. if i gave them to you then they would be yours. :) |

I sample from really strange things. I stripped all the plastic off a cheap computer mic and whipped it against the wall a few times. Sounded very cool ;) |
