Samples
The samples of the library of sound are ordered in five categories:
- Rope Singing Spontaneous sounds of ropes when out of operation; mostly recorded with contact microphones (unprocessed)
- Acoustic Ecology Recordings of audible operating noise; mostly recorded with in-ear-microphones or ambisonics (unprocessed)
- Interactive Sonification Documented interaction with the ropes, stimulation by double bass bows, mallets or other implements; mostly recorded with contact microphones (unprocessed)
- Acceleration Data Sonified infrasonic oscillations; measured with special microphones
- Musical Remix Compilation of sounds from the library (processed, copyrighted material)
Each sample can be listened to or downloaded (mp3). The visualized envelope curve highlights process details.

Additional research tools for sample analysis and indexing are in preparation.
