To create this sound i hit an apple with a pair of scissors in my bedroom. It sounds as if someone is being hit over the head with a hammer - i created it as foley for a student film for this purpose. To record i used my sontronics stc-10 microphone and my audiobox interface running pro tools from my mac at 48khz, 16 bit.
Bashing on wood with hammer continuously. Made in a small workshop. The sound was recorded in 2019 on edirol r-44 with rode ntg-2. Adobe audition was used for postproduction.
A sample of 4 quick hammered notes (a,b,d,e)on a electric guitar using the neck pick up. I recorded it through a pod xt and an old 4 track. It was cut from a song i recorded for my solo project "the heirs of rockefeller".
It's just a sterling silver spoon being dropped gently onto a wooden cutting board. Nevertheless, first thing i used this sound for was a dwarf hammering a weapon.
Hammer hitting a nail: in this sound you hear a metal hammer hitting a metal nail into a slab of wood, creating a harsh sounding sound. Recorded using the zoomh4n and using the rode ntg1 condenser shotgun microphone. A high shelf and a band was added to the sound to make the hammer hitting the nail more clear. The hammer used was 2kg hammer and the nail was 5 cm long nail and the wood was a piece of eucalyptus tree wood.
