How it's made
- Source
- a ventilation fan and ducting. Turbulent air is brown/pink noise band-limited to 35–900 Hz; the motor adds a mains hum (100 Hz plus 2nd/3rd harmonics) and the blades a slow ~7 Hz flutter.
- Body
- the concrete hall is a large hard cavity: the hum sits in a broad ~115 Hz room mode, and every discrete event is sent through a long cave-style reverb (2–5 s) that smears it into a diffuse wash.
- Events
- distant steel doors slam as a low-passed thud (120–220 Hz) plus a damped metal-bar ring, far away (air absorption above ~2 kHz); tyres squeal as a 1.6–2.6 kHz sawtooth with a gliding pitch, a ~25 Hz stick-slip amplitude flutter and a band-pass body, both reverberated.
- Envelope
- the fan drone breathes slowly (drift of about ±1.5 dB); slams decay in ~0.2 s before the reverb tail takes over; squeaks last 0.3–0.8 s with a soft attack and release.
- Variation
- `rng` draws event times, strength, pitch, size of each door and the stereo position.
