Walt: I think I'll phone the PEAK folks and ask them what's up. Core Audio works fine on my new eMac G4 800, but doesn't work well on my Dual 500. Who knows? ...
... I'll be interested in what you find out. My G4 is a single 500, so will probably have a lot of the same issues once I start into that. Though disk speed...
The PEAK tech-head says use "Mac OSX Audio HAL" as the setting. He's not sure why Core Audio produces a distorted output, but he says that if I attach a Core...
Hi all, I am putting together a bird song CD of my Eastern Sierra recordings as a training tool for interns at PRBO's Eastern Sierra field station. I need to...
I am purchasing an MD home deck with digital out to transfer digital bird song recordings to my PC for editing, but don't want to buy an audio CD-R deck...
... Thanks Lang The short reason is that programmers have egos. They'll decide they know how to do it better, and make something special. Which will just be a ...

Dear Fellow Nature Recordists, I request for suggestion regarding buying a shotgun microphone(old/new) especially for recording low frequency bird sounds. I...

Hi All, I am making a trip to Uganda for one month. Do any of you have experience recording in Uganda. What things should I not miss, can anyone reccomend a ...
... Hi Pratap-- Can you describe the situation and sounds you'd like to capture that you can't get with the Telinga? Which Telinga model? Rob -- Rob Danielson ...
The spring campout recording outing near Lafarge, WI on the Kickapoo River has been moved to 5/16-5/18. All who wish to attend or saw this message are invited...
Dear Rob Danielson, Thanks for quick response. My Telinga is not good for very low frequency sounds of owls, doves, pigeons etc. I bought used Telinga from...

Hi all, I need to generate some sonograms of a Flycatcher I recorded in the Eastern Sierras. It's either a Cordilleran or a Pacific-slope (formerly combined in...
Hi Marty-- This is not just a rumour. This happened several years ago, when BBC was shooting Attenborough's superb "Life of Birds". An entire field ...
Simply select "Spectral View" instead of "Waveform View" from the "View" menu (in Cool Edit Pro LE, but I guess that it is similar in the 2000 version). You...
Thanks again Mr. Rob Danielson for suggestion. As I have found in the discussions in this group normal parabolas are not good for low frequency sounds. How are...

Folks, Generally: 1/ A parabol makes the sound "come closer" by boosting high frequencies. 2/ When removing the dish, the microphone will work as any...

Dear Pratap, Another line of thought, starting with Walt's comments: How big is your dish? Getting a bigger dish could increase the low end boost enough to...
My 32" dish still has a cutoff shelf above most owls. My ME-67 performed well at low frequencies but was not very directional for owls. It was good at droping...
... I'm not sure increasing dish size above 22 inches is all that productive. Especially if you wish to be reasonably portable. 22 inches can be used hand...
Dumb question? Does your setup have two on switches - one forward and one back. One of them (I cannot remember which right now) puts in a low filter!! I have...
... Or is this a cutoff of the speaker you used to test it? The use of pink noise out a small speaker is very unlikely to be giving you a true picture. Or more...
... Unfortunately all too true. It would be nice if a parabolic did have this sharp cutoff folks talk about sometimes. My telinga sucks in any low rumbles from...
Walt, I'm afraid, that you can not compare the ability of small diaphragm microphones to pick-up low frequencies with the physical effects, that occur in a...
