Sounds of Main Street, Disneyland

[Gary Edstrom]

I recently acquired a semi-professional hand-held audio recorder and
decided to go around Disneyland & California Adventure recording the
sounds of the park.

Here is a clip of the sounds of Main Street:

Playing Time: 1:43 File Size: 8.7MB
Stereo Sample Rate: 22KHz Sample Size: 16-bit signed

It sounds best if you listen to it through headphones.

I have a total of 24 other recordings made recently covering a good
portion of the attractions in the parks. There are still a number I
would like to capture, however.

I am going to have to try to dig out a recording I made 42 years ago of
the Carousel of Progress. I have tried to digitize all of my old audio
recordings but just remembered that I had one of the Carousel of
Progress that I have not yet digitized. I hope it is still readable!

It was my intent to use an app on my iPhone to capture some white
noise sound from each of the parks but the only one I caught was 30
seconds of Test Track queue and, gawd, was it noisy on playback. Sigh!
The excitement of being there kinda got in the way of my plans.

That was fun, Gary! I hope you'll post more.

Here is another audio clip, this time from the Storybook Land Canal
Boats. Note that it is a rather large file: 36.7MB. I have not
compressed the file any. It exists exactly how I recorded it, trimming
out only a little bit before and after the ride. These recordings sound
best when you listen to them through headphones.
