Sound made by a small electric motor cranking and reversing a lever (on an infant's glider/sleeper). This is one repeat of the sound taken from a larger sound I've provided in this archive (which has repeated takes). If you pitch-shift this down about six steps and add a metal/plate/hall reverberation effect, it sounds remarkably like a sound you hear in the carbonite chamber scene in THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK :)

This was recorded with a Sony ICD-ST voice recorder held next to the glider, then noise removed with an audio tool, then normalized.

I request but don't demand credit to me (Richard Alexander Hall) for any use of this sound.
