Metal Sounds

A door I found in the neighborhood for an industrial trash dumpster enclosure. The door was very tall and created this cool, deep groan as I opened the door. I had to record the sound. So I grabbed my handheld recorder and recorded away. I layered the track in Reaper and added some noise reduction and echo effects. I hope you all like the sound. JB

Wow. This reminds me of the alien's first musical greeting sounds at the end of Close Encounters.

blindmanonacid, you ask and you shall receive. I will upload a none echo/reverb version of this effect tonight. Thanks

Sounds great - I would really like to have a clean version without the added reverb and echo so I can make it fit to the space I want.
