The source recordings have been created on the basis of individually designed and manually produced wooden machines. Basic sound types in both source and design sections of the library are: Rattling, Friction, Knocking, Clicking and Metal Spin. These archaic machines are not exactly driven, so you can hear rhythm irregularities. Many files have gradual starts and ends.
Gear Sources – 75 original recordings. The standard stereo files have been backed up by MS versions, that are recommended for extreme stereo image manipulations, but it is also possible to extract clear Co100K mono from the left channel. Slightly cleaned and edited for those who would like to design from scratch.
Gear Designed – the 65 standard stereo sounds by their content represent complex mechanisms that fulfill the whole frequency spectrum. From ultrarealistic details up to abstractly unknown sounds. Here we are still in 192 kHz domain.
215 files including both LR and MS sources, total runtime 345 minutes, 24 GB unpacked
Native 192kHz / 24bit – the greatest resolution to give you many options for your own sound design manipulations

Sennheiser MKH30 microphone is a well-trusted figure-8 microphone with darker timbres
These mics were used in MS stereo configuration, so the end user can set up the stereo image naturally
