So you'd better look at widely available commercial sound effect CD's

Dear Boris,<br>
<br>
Not at first. The purpose of the database is to compose virtual<br>
environmental sounds in a very close to reality paradigm. The major<br>
goal is the research on noise effects on the human being. Perhaps in a<br>
future step of the research it could be interesting the topic you<br>
said.<br>

&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; I mean events like car, trucks and motorcycle passby, birds, dogs =

&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; The sounds that I am searching must not be in loosely compression<=
