Olympia typewriter - probably made in the 60's. I typed a few things - complete with end of line warning bell and carriage return. I recorded it for a play in Dallas. Simple shotgun microphone - mackie mixer - audigy soundcard - SoundForge 7.

Great sound thanks a lot.
editors ans sound editors, if you need to accelerate the typing, put the same sound on a second track and move it a litlle bit to the right or left till you find the good rythm, the typing will be twice faster.
(the warning bell must be cut on the second track of cours)

Sounds perfect! It's so pleasant to hear sounds like that. It brings some good old memories, though.
