Passing Trains (Live Pack & WAV)

Passing Trains delivers impressive sounds of Express, Freight and Passenger trains that approach, pass, stop and pull out.
The recordings took place at several isolated spots in Saxon Switzerland near Dresden. This rock formation is cut by a river that formed a deep valley where the rails snake along.
Due to the complex reflections from the rock walls some of the included takes have amazing long tails of up 3 minutes. These tails sound like otherworldly swells of approaching iron and steel.

Passing Trains is organised into 6 sceneries. The Live Pack version includes 58 Clips and a Live Set, the Universal version contains standard WAV files.
Approaches and Stops / Express Trains / Freight Trains / Local Trains / Locomotives / Close Miking – impressive close ups taken with lavaliers and contact microphones that were attached directly at the rail.
