crunching

Diana Omomehin

Sound recording of stomping on gravel next to the paved pathway of the Proctor Creek Greenway. This off-road terrain creates a more natural feel to the Proctor Creek Greenway. Individuals who want to experience more of a modern hike, ride a bike, or a skateboard can take the paved path, but people who want a true hiking experience can walk on the gravel. The sound of gravel crunching can be heard with the slight sound of the soil in the background.  of leaves and gravel crunching can be heard with the steady beat of feet hitting the soil underneath. This sound shows that all people can experience the natural serenity of the Proctor Creek Greenway. Recorded with a Zoom H6 recorder and Rode NTG2 shotgun condenser microphone.

This sound is gulping water quickly from a plastic water bottle. The sound contains a steady, loud gulping sound followed by the crunching of the empty plastic water bottle as the water is drank. This was recorded on a condenser mic.

Ever wondered what it sounds like to hear a crunch up close? The sensational, tingling feeling that you may feel and hear from each chip being eaten has a loud, hallow crunch after every few bites. If you listen closely, you will even be able to hear the swallowing of each chip going down and the uniqueness of how chewing each bite may sound like.
