Real Typewriter (CC0 Sample)

CC0 Audio File

Actual typewriter key recording from BigSoundBank.com. Trimmed to ~100ms attack. The gold standard for realism.

Layered Mechanical Click

Synthesized

Bandpass noise burst (4-5kHz) + triangle pitch-drop transient. Synthesized but feels physical.

Typewriter Hammer

Synthesized

3-layer: highpass noise crack + sine metal resonance + triangle body thud. Most aggressive/authentic.

Pen on Paper

Synthesized

Bandpass noise only — no tonal elements. Gentle paper friction sound. Fits the notebook aesthetic.

Keyboard Clack

Synthesized

Two-layer noise: ultra-short high transient + mid-range body. Between mech keyboard and typewriter.
