scale_mechanical_domestic_01.wav

Domestic mechanical scale. One that tells you how fat you got since the last time you used it. Metal mechanical construction with spring.

Recorded with a pair of Sennheiser MKH80 in MS (decoded to regular stereo) and Nagra LB.

It might be a bit too wide because of extreme closeup, but I wanted to leave this sound as raw as possible. Perhaps instead of just turning down the side channel, it would be better to shelf out some of the proximity effect on it (fig-8 capsules have bigger proximity effect than cardiods so it gets a bit out of balance when you go very close).
