NASA Posts a Huge Library of Space Sounds (2014)
- JonnieCache 12y agoAs if we need any more half-baked rave records with samples of astronauts on them ;) To use nasa vocal samples is to deny yourself the opportunity of mumbling into a shitty microphone in a pretend american accent. I can highly recommend it. It's even more fun if you do the beeps and static yourself. Apparently the ones on the soundcloud are all 64kb mp3s (presumably transcoded to 128 by soundcloud. Yuck.) but they seem to be mirrored here in delicious flac format: https://archive.org/details/nasaaudiocollection https://archive.org/details/nasaaudiocollection EDIT: bad news: its not the same set of files on the archive as on SC. good news: not all of the SC mp3s are that bad. plenty of them seem to be 192. I've got one here that's 128 kbit at 8hz! It's from some probe or other, so presumably the source was only 8 hz, but 128kb isn't fair! If you're going to beam it back all the way across the bloody solar system losslessly then whats the point of 128ing it for the benefit of soundcloud?
- nsxwolf 12y agoRidiculous. There's no sound in space.
