THE STORY

Excavator MF 860 sound library is a result of two full day recording sessions. First session covered the sound of the engine, recorded under the hood with two DPA 4061 microphones, and exterior digging sounds recorded in mono and stereo with Rode NTG3, 2 Sennheiser MKH 8040 and Sony PCM-M10 recorder. The second recording session covered the exterior passes, interior sounds, foley and digging, since we had to dig our machine from the mud (photo below).  This library features 83 files with total length of 145 minutes. Everything was recorded in 96kHz, edited, cleaned and meta tagged. Inside you’ll find sound of the engine recorded onboard (under the hood + interior from the cabin) while driving on the different roads, exterior engine with passes in mono and stereo recorded on asphalt, hard ground and dry grass and foley. Engine sounds comes in two versions, designed and RAW, so you can design it on your own.
