A  SCENE AT NOON ON AN INCLEMENT DAY
This day in June 2013 was distinctly inclement in northern Finland, but despite this, and on account of the thunder, I borrowed a pair of amazingly-inexpensive cardioid condenser microphones from one of my companions, and wandered out into the local woodlands to evaluate the suitability of these condensers for natural sound-recording.
I was deeply impressed by the results, especially by the clean, crisp rendition of the cardioid pair.
To contrast with the wind, rain and thunder, a few passerines vocalised, including Willow Warbler, Common Redstart, and Raven.
"T-Bone" SC140 cardioid condenser microphone pair, into SD702 running at 48kHz-24Bits.
