Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States

The busy pedestrian and auto traffic in the streets of Harvard Square, Cambridge, MA. A large truck passing, some group chatter, and in the last 20 seconds or so you can hear that electronic crosswalk chirp thing :)

Well, hmm, don't like that sound.
It's a good example of the disadvantage of mp3-encoding. The heights are completely cut off. That's a pity.

This is the perfect sound I needed for a project. Just enough background noise. A plus!

The bass is not very clear. Lots of lower frequency clipping going on. If you do it again, see if you can improve the dynamic range a bit so that the low end is captured more clearly. Sorry for the negative review though.
