We all grew up with different technology than we have today. But can you remember the exact sound your first cell phone's keypad made, or when you inserted a cartridge into a NES? Conserve the Sound is a website that preserves the sounds of old tech devices so you can listen to them whenever you like.
Do you remember the sounds of the iBook, the Walkman, or the clicking cadence of a rotary phone? Those and many more are preserved in Conserve the Sound, an online museum for sounds that have disappeared or are in danger of extinction.
Yes, although you might not believe it, with the advancement of technology many sounds have already partially disappeared or are about to vanish from our daily lives (such as the sound of phone dialing, an analog typewriter, calculators, or even a cell phone keyboard).
The Conserve the Sound project preserves them and makes them available in a gallery full of old tech devices, so you can listen to them as many times as you want. Below are some devices from yesteryear that are heard in the online museum.
