Thanks Mitch Hmm. The 4shard's link isn't working. I'm quite intrigued about the light stand adapter though - can you remember the proper description for them?...
... Hi Tim, The light stand adapter is often called an Umbrella Bracket, it comes as a kit although I believe you can purchase the 5/8" dumbbell fittings, ...
Aha! All is revealed in your pictures - I should have looked at them first. I actually have a couple of light stands, umbrella mounts and studs for my...
... I would have to disagree. If you don't have a listening space tuned to be as neutral as possible, then it's colouring what you are hearing. Any attempt to...
... It is precisely because we all hear differently, with different ear canals, etc. that any attempt to equalise for headphone playback is doomed to failure....
replying to a few earlier comments on my comments here: sorry, but my point, basically, is that a 'studio' setting is NOT neutral - it is a human perception of...
Thank you Serge, They are frogs, I think there is no crows. the year month day and hour is in the name of the sample: 12(2012)05(May), 23(day) hour T0600Z six...
... I know there are frogs on your recording, but are you sure that's what we hear at 5:07? Could somebody give a ID for this frog? Best regards. --Serge...
<<Of course the best mixing environment is a properly designed listening space with top class loudspeakers with five zeroes in its cost, but if you put up a...
Hello, Serge thank you for your help. I think it is Corvus corax, and the frog is probably hila meridionalis very comun here in Grândola Alentejo, the local...
this could get tricky ! I'd have to disagree with the 75 years comment. For one thing, lets not forget that recording began much earlier than this & that the...
as per my reply to Dan, there's no such thing as a neutral space - every bit of equipment has its own 'sound'. on a wider point, when it comes to field...
perhaps its the difference between a Dire Straits album & a Joy Division one :) &, i'll say again, recordings of natural sound simply have never been produced...
Scott, There's a BBC Monograph on the design of a stereo control room. I've got it saved somewhere but I can't find it. It discussed the Haas Effect and its...
Hi Jez, Joachim Ernst Berent wrote about listening environments in his book The Third Ear. He uses that as a basis for explaining that we carry out much of...
Hi Mark, I don't have much time to respond to this today - it would need some time I think. What I need to say for now is that the 'care' of the recording...

re: "I actually only know a small handful of folks who make field recordings who use a 'studio' to mix/edit & I don't know anyone involved in any aspect of...
ah, but that isn't neutral is it ? it's one step further :) I've been in / recorded in a few & what's interesting is that no two are the same of course. If...
No sample audio? If the choice is between this being a publicity stunt and them having really recorded something previously unknown, I'm going for the former....
