djonimz - Wotz wrong with sticking the thing I just downloaded from www.findsounds.com into V4 - streccchhing it and pasting a few copies of the same underneath? I've just done it!! Make it as long as you want . . I'm listening to it right now . . I feel quite chilled out . . nice . .. Render to New Track as a "WAV" file - easy peasy . . .

Or have I missed something?

Grazie

If yer want it I can email it to you?

Leave your email here, and disguise it as something like -

mynameatbigbucks.com

. . . yeah? It's now 11:00pm in London, and I'm got a shot this weekend sooooooo hurry up . . yeah?

Grazie

I have three underwater sound files (a sub, two that have a low rumble) that I used for an underwater sceen (with fish, sharks, whales, etc.). I've uploaded it to my industry website at the view sample sections.

www.thevideomaker.com (go to the "view samples" page). I would post it but this site is cloaked within another site and the top URL does not change.

I put it as a link on the last word of the Special FX paragraph:

Special FX. Sample 3D logos (glass, gold), static and spinning, blue screen effects, sound foley, animation, picture-in-picture, sync to music. Low-res version has fuzzy edges and glass looses transparency - DVD is laser sharp. (9.8 meg, 4 Min 13 Sec) - Can activate upon request (right click on the word request and download).

I saved all three as one "underwater.mp3" file.

I will keep it up for a day and then remove it.

Hope it helps.

Chanimal excellent !!

You can pull a condom over a microphone(!) and sink it in a bucket or a tub with water, and record all kinds of underwater noises as much as you like. Try it.

Torsie - How on Earth did you discover THAT!

Grazie

Always dipping condomed things in buckets ... no, sorry. Learnt it from an experienced sound engineer.
Tor

Also, Grazie, you can put a plastic bag over your microphone when it's raining. I will work just the same - well almost.

One of my more ... *ahem* ... interesting foley experiences invovled coming up with the splash sound of a person falling into a pond. I spent an evening with a mic hanging over the bathtub full of water tossing various things in. Nothing sounded right though. Everything sounded way too plastic, or wood, or metal, or whatever. Finally around midnight i decided i needed something floppy so i ran down to the convenience store to buy some balloons. They didn't have any. So i picked up the ... *ahem* ... next best thing, filled one with water (took about 3 gallons!) and dropped it in the tub. The bathroom got soaked, i got soaked, the cats got soaked, and the director loved the sound!

Now THIS is the job for me! - Where do I sign up??? Choose ME! Choose ME!
