I mean events like car, trucks and motorcycle passby, birds, dogs ... alarms. It is better if they are far from the background noise and each event in a separated wavefile or very distant in time (not overlapping). The sounds that I am searching must not be in loosely compression formats and must have a calibration reference (e.g.) in order to know the sound pressure level that represents the full scale of the file. I will appreciate any help. Best regards, Ernesto Accolti.
