This is a close mic recording of the fan/motor on the Sony AV3400 Porta Pak circa 1969. Recorded using Schoeps A once state of the art portable record/playback Videocorder designed to operate with the SONY AVC-3400 Video Camera. Digital recording has made such devices obsolete. It was once used by the University Nursing School but now lives in the archive.
This is part of the Obsolete Sounds project, the world’s biggest collection of disappearing sounds and sounds that have become extinct – remixed and reimagined to create a brand new form of listening. Explore the whole project at https://citiesandmemory.com/obsolete-sounds
