Hi again Hamit.
Sorry I've not been in touch recently, but with the lock down and my poor
health, things were looking pretty grim for a while.
So I've bounced back.
Hamit, I'm not getting any opportunities for recording, either indoors or
outdoors as a consequents of all these closures.
Just to remind you I've a pair of at 8022's for that Stereo spread you were
referring to, a few months ago. Still need a pir of good table-top stands
to hold them.
I'm hoping to use this configuration on both my h6 and f8n.
As they require Phantom power, I need to travel into glasgow to buy an
external power adaptor along with a couple of "Erose" adaptors, so I can
power both machines. I think I need to get this set up for 12 to 18 amps.
But I'm hoping to get some help with setting everything up from my Sound
Engineer friend who works at BBC Radio Scotland at Pacific Quay. These
microphones are for recording Local pub bands, choirs as well as small
travelling opera groups.
Regarding the at 2022, Now that's completely different. Absolutely no
Phantom needed at all. This is more or less a Binaural system for
recording podcasts of walk about's in Glasgow, recording street buskers or
most definitely bird calls.
It's taking me a while to get to this level of planning and it's looking
very likely that I'll probably not be in a position to record a band, quire
or podcast till after Christmas.
I'm just happy to continue buying all the equipment necessary. I've also
got 2 new computers so I'm having a good old clean out for winter.
Yes Hamit I'd love to hear my 2 configurations on a few recorders. Sure the
F6 must figure. But you know, I do't know how I feel about this recorder
now. I'm only hearing very negative comments concerning them. Nothing like
that what we heard which came along with the Zoom H6 or Zoom F8n.
I really wish that both you and Neal would have gone for the Zoom F8n.
God! With neal doing his usual podcast introducing the device a long with a
tactile map and your superior understanding of how the menue systems are
laid out and navigating and making appropriate changes within, then I'd be
indeed, a happy rabbit. with all that support.
Very best wishes, Andy.

Hi Andy. It's Hamiht. You could to a certain extent get the quality Jarry
did. Via the F8N. Now that's just the recorder. I'll be real with you my
friend I've not heard the AT-8022 with an F recorder let alone a true pro
recorder Like Neal's trusty old Sound-Devices 744-T. Man how I'd love 1 of
those things. A kind reminder too my friend. You're confusing the 2022
with the 8022. The 2022 is the 1 that yes if you want to use the quarter
intch jacks into the middle of the XLR quarter jacks of the H6 absolutely
make sure phantom is off. The 8022 on the contrary I wana jently kindly
remind you my friend can take and does take phantom as it has XLRs. This
is how I use it to get it's full potential. If you ever do try the 8022 on
the F8N send me a demo please. I'd love to know how it sounds on an F
recorder.

Hi Craig.
I downloaded your recording, just before the subject line was hi-jacked
with professional sound engineer's.
Now. Let's get back to basics.
I'm interested, very much in Recording bird call, here in the west Coast
area of Scotland.
I have a lot:
Zoom H6.
Zoom F8n.
2 At 8022's
and 1 AT 2022.
Now, I've all the tools, but little skill.
I want to record the best I can achieve, as you do Craig.
So out of my options above, I believe for a simple Dawn Chorus, you'd
advise . My Zoom H6 and At 2022.
Let's consider the ZoomF8n later.
So I'm going to give this a go as soon as I can make sure that Phantom
power is completely turned off on the H6. I down't want to burn this mick
out.
Now regarding your recordings.
I'm not going to blow smoke in your ears my friend.
This is my honest opinion.
The quality of the recordings of crows was extemely high. I cannot get
anywhere near this quality.
Now Consider this.
You said so, in your rural comunity, you simply cannot record absolute
silence.
So although your recordings are extremely good, all the ground and
background sound destroys it's value.
Now consider me.
I live in a small village called Kilcreggan. The village is on the
Roseneith Peninsular on the west coast of scotland.
My recording station is looking straight out the Clyde Estury to the
Irish sea and Atlantic.
To my Left is Greenock and Gouroch. Then the channel then to my right,
Dunoon.
I'm 500 ft above the world and it's, on occasion, total silence, like the
movie gravity. .
When there is a thunder or lightening storm, this is where you find me,
going insane with pleasure.
Now regarding bird call. I'm luck because my wife and I own a small farm
of over 1000 trees and more birds than anywhere on the peninsular.
Hense this equipment.
I simply know that you would not challeng me, for there are opertunities
all around me with various challenges such as Wind noise.
I really do wish that with digital recording now taking off that somethin
like Blind Cool Tech could not be started up again. to gather all of our
podcasts and make them available for list members.
What do you think?
Very best wishes.
Andy.

It's a 22-inch in diameter Wildtronics amplified parabolic system.

Jerry,
I am sorry, but I missed the beginning of this thread. Which microphone
system is being used, and how large is it? Thank you.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

I have not yet made any practical use of all three mics at the same
time,
but it's fun having the focused recording along with the stereo
recording,
just in case I want it.
Here's a series of recordings of crows in my back yard, recorded with
the F6
and Parabola stereo mics. I used Reaper to string the recordings
together,
and they get successively louder toward the end, due to my inexperience
with
Reaper.

All of the rest were recorded on an Olympus LS14 and my parabolic
system.
They were all recorded in Tennessee. I rarely get the chance to make
exciting recordings, because I live in a fairly urban area near Boston.
Here's a link to a recording I made early on a spring morning at Seven
Islands state park:

And here is a mono recording from the parabola of a Chuck Will's Widow.
There's a lot of noise from a nearby stream, and I could not even hear
the
bird with my naked ears. I just havppened to be slowly swinging the
parabola around while listening with headphones, and all of a sudden I
heard
it and homed in on it.
