Hello Forumers! I want to be able to make really good recordings of nature sounds for my ambient listening pleasure. Does anyone know what kind of equipment I need for this, besides just recording with my iPhone or something? I want the quality to be terrific and I want to be able to get rid of wind noise completely. Having directional ability would be a plus too, such as using some kind of parabolic, directional mic (or making one myself). Any ideas? Thanks in advance,
Rockworthy |

Parabolic mirror plus cardioid microphone or gun mike in dead cat to get rid of the wind noise. You could probably improvise a parabolic mirror using an old satellite dish, then buy a half reasonable cardioid microphone and decent microphone pre-amplifier (or make the pre-amplifier yourself).

Perhaps something along this line.
Buy TASCAM DR-100 Portable Digital Recorder | Professional | Musician's Friend Or http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com...der?sku=241731 You could use the built in stereo mics while waiting for the more advanced directional ones? Last edited by TubeMack; 1st January 2010 at 03:33 AM. |
