For this track, I used some of the plugins designed by @Hainbach: Wires, and the new Spitfire Audio plug-in called Landfill Totems.

This is what one of the most iconic cameras of the mid-1970s sounds like: the Agfamatic 2008 pocket camera that came out in 1975.

Song For A Sunny Day

A first attempt to use the Luhd binaural mics. Recorded with an Olympus LS-14 during a short walk in a busy street in downtown Prague, Czech Republic.

Evening Walk (excerpt)

A short binaural recording using the Luhd PM-01 Binaural microphones and an Olympus LS-14 recorder. 
It was recorded on a walk in early February 2019 close to Namesti Republiky in downtown Prague. The recording actually starts in the hotel lobby.
Some cars, a number of different languages spoken by passers-by, and trams rumbling along.
I cut out some the worst mic handling noise and a part that had a lot of wind noise.

Evening Walk (edit)

Some distant fireworks recorded from my terrace. It was an August Saturday night, so quite a few people out on the river Spree, music playing somewhere, people in the gardens.
Recorded with a Sounddevices Mixpre-3 and sE Electronics sE8 mics in ORTF setup.

Distant Fireworks

A longer take using a pair of sE Electronics sE8 in ORTF position.
Recorded with a Mixpre-3 at 55dB gain, lo-cut at 80Hz, plus Rycote BBG windshields.
Some nice wind noise in the beginning.

sE Electronics sE8 (55dB)

Testing the Soundman Windshield with the Luhd Binaural Mics. Works pretty well, just looks stupid.

Binaural Afternoon

A short test of the Audio Technica AT-4022 omni mics, in A-B stereo (73 cm) setup. Gain set at 50 dB, lo-cut 40 Hz. Movo furry windshields.

This morning I finally managed to go the Kreuzberg weekly food market again after I don't know how many years. Turned out that 10 a.m. was too early, vendors were still setting up their stalls. Almost no veg on sale yet. Almost no customers. But still some interesting soundscape.

Wochenmarkt Kreuzberg

A short recording from the 7th balcony of my hotel room in Canary Wharf. It was really quiet outside as the main road next to the hotel was closed for some reason.
I used a Sennheiser Ambeo Smart Headset and the Twisted Wave audio editor to record it.
One of the biggest downsides of the Ambeo Headset is that you can‘t manually adjust recording levels and that the low end of the recordings is really thin as they apply quite some HP filter to it.

Sunday Evening in Canary Wharf

A short recording of the escalator at Treptower Park train station.

Train Station Escalator

Recorded with a Sennheiser Ambeo Smart Headset into Twisted Waves on the iPhone.

Making a Jecklin Disk

This is a comparison of two binaural recordings:
Part 1 recorded with Luhd binaural microphones into a Tascam DR-05X. Normalized to -6 dB in RX7
Part 2 recorded with Sennheiser Ambeo Smart Headset into Twisted Waves on iPhone. Normalized to -6 dB in RX7
Please comment on which recording you prefer.

Mic Comparison Luhd Binaural vs. Sennheiser Ambeo Smart

Testing the new in-ear binaural setup with Primo EM 172 capsules. Conditions less than ideal, very windy and rainy winter evening in Zurich. No edits other than fade in and out.

Stadelhofen Again

A very quiet terminal at Zurich airport where the main sound was an escalator and the A/C. 
Recorded with a pair of binaural DIY mics (Primo EM 172 capsules) into a Tascam DR-05X recorder. Normalized to -9 dB, fade in and out, no other edits.

What sounds like crackling on an old vinyl LP is actually raindrops on an umbrella..

Sunday Daydreaming

A short binaural recording by a lake, with children playing at the nearby public beach.
Recorded with a Sennheiser Ambeo Smart Headset into Twisted Waves. Normalized to -12dB in post.

Afternoon by the Lake (binaural)

Around 6.00 a.m. in Berlin, around the time when our dog gets up...

Late part of an overnight recording with Line Audio CM4 mics in ORTF stereo setup (using Rycote Baby Ball Gags and Furries) from a roof terrace. Had to EQ out two frequency bands at 300 Hz and 600 Hz from a nearby HVAC.
