I recorded my nail sliding against the the bass E string of my folk guitar.
I then extended this sample using the Paulstretch effect, which created an atmospheric ambient sound.
Then, I used the very beginning of the original sample without altering it. It sounded like a footstep on an old wooden floor.
I copied this sound several times so that it could sound like somebody walking slowly.
I varied the pitch of some of these footsteps, and then I amplified them so that it sounds like the footsteps are
getting closer. The noise only comes from the left side at the beginning, and ends up at the middle when the door opens.
Once again, I used the sliding finger noise, reduced the tempo and added a gradual pitch augmentation to mimic
the sound of an old door being opened.

Typologie/morphologie de P. Schaeffer

(son long et varié qui le rend difficile à analyser selon la typologie et la morphologie de Schaeffer)

C'est un son continu complexe (X) auquel s'ajoute des itération complexes (X''). On entend aussi des variation de fréquences qui peuvent être définies comme un son continu varié (V)

Masse : Il s'agit d'un groupe de son nodal.

Grain : Son rugueux, presque métallique.

Allure : On entend un vibrato. Certains passages font penser à un son de violon.

Dynamique : Le profil dynamique de ce son varie beaucoup. (Trop long pour parler d'attaque)

Profil mélodique : La variation de fréquence est serpentine.

Profil de masse : Certaines fréquences perçues sont très aiguës tandis que d'autres sont très graves. Aussi certains bruits sont beaucoup plus forts que d'autres.
