Orchestral Cinematic (lament B) slightly ore orch reverb

The climax of a dawn chorus at Shapwick Heath nature reserve on the Somerset levels. I nightingale comes to the end of his shift after singing throughout the night. The rest of the birds have only recently woken up and started singing. Cuckoos, bitterns, and a variety of warblers, tits, thrushes and wetland species.

A group of northern lapwings (vanellus vanellus) performing an aerial display right in front of my microphones on a wetland site in mid-Sweden. They dive and loop in the air screeching with their iconic "peewit" song. At moments, you can hear their buzzing wingbeats. Towards the end, an individual lands near the microphones and begins alarming, possibly directed at the microphones (though they were very small and discreetly placed), a nearby predator, or another intruding bird.

Uploading this old mix for a laugh - I recorded about ten years ago I think when I was a wee lass; and a very troubled lass judging by the dark tune choice.... haha.

Ye Old techno mix.

Apart from being mainly designed for heavy rock vocals I was interested to note that AKG also recommend the D170 for Bass Drum ' (where other microphones sound too 'bassy' and muddy)'.................. So with that in mind I recently took it out on some live rock'n'roll gigs and was very pleased with the tight, punchy sound it produces. If more low end is required it also responds very well to additional EQ.  The mic was positioned in the mouth of the hole in the front skin. No processing or EQ has been used.

this was a song about a relationship between a pony who is cursed to be forgotten and unknowable
and a pony who sees her every time they meet and
every time
he give her tulip

The winter 2020 Journal of Media and Diversity included an important study produced by our good friend Emma Butt, illustrating the current state of diversity in the film sound industry in the UK.

In this episode we discuss the origin and methodology of the study with Emma, and get into some possible solutions.
