Here we present some of our Dutch recordings in MP3. MP3 was not developed for nature-sound recordings! The best quality would be in WAV format, but there is not enough room on the server to give you a good example of the quality and diversity of our recordings and the number of available sounds. All recordings are in Dutch alphabetical order. The name of the recordist is stated too.

WARNING: all sound files are edited to give the best possible results on the web. Many are filtered and the sequences are shortened, but the quality is also downgraded to enable smaller files. For other purposes you need the original recordings which are of excellent quality. Please contact Hans Dankbaar for purchasing these at:

It is NOT permitted to use the soundfiles below for commercial purposes. If you wish to use them contact Hans Dankbaar (see above).
