Product Description
The Recordist presents sound effects from the Zastava M53 Machine Gun. The M53 is a 7.92×57mm Mauser, air-cooled, belt fed, open bolt, recoil-operated machine gun with a quick change barrel.
After WWII, this MG 42 variant was built in Yugoslavia as the M53 machine gun using original German machinery, retaining the 7.92×57mm Mauser caliber. Because of this, the original weapon’s design features were retained, making the M53 a near exact copy of the German MG 42.
Perspectives include: attached, very close, medium and distant. From just a few inches out to 150 meters, this collection offers a wide range of source material. 10 mono and 7 stereo microphones time aligned and level matched provide a “ready to go” set of 24-bit 96k WAV files with detailed Soundminer Pro metadata from this Czechoslovak 7.92×57mm Mauser belt fed weapon. Single and burst variations are included along with mechanical action “foley” sounds. Special close-up designed microphone combinations are also included. The weapon recorded is authentic, not a replica.
