[1-Hour Endurance] Railroad Crossing Alarm Sound

This work features an hour-long recording of orthodox railroad crossing sounds.

In my personal view, given the nature of the sound, it doesn’t seem very suitable for use while working, but not only is the audio quality itself maintained at a very high level, it also contains no extraneous noise whatsoever, making it a pleasure to enjoy.

Compared to the conventional high-pitched alarm, many of the latest ones are more subdued in their acoustic impact, indicating consideration for the surrounding residential environment.

As a comparison video, it’s an interesting piece that lets you directly compare how they sound.

The sound of the railroad crossing

This is a sound effect piece in which the sounds of a railroad crossing are recorded with great clarity.

Since it is a field recording, noises such as train running sounds and wind hitting the microphone are included, but it is also a valuable work that lets you enjoy the raw sound of a railroad crossing.

As it is an audiovisual work, it is best enjoyed in a calm environment.
