Hey Gang:

One more suggestion concerning the stereo parabolic mp3 file I've posted  a=
t
www.naturesound.com/plover.mp3

If you can open the stereo file into a sound editing program, then listen t=
o
it first in stereo using headphones, paying special attention to when the
two plovers call at the same time. Then convert the file to monaural and
listen again. You'll be amazed at the difference. The "pleasure coefficient=
"
drops enormously. Furthermore, you will not be able to clearly distinguish
the two plovers when they call together.

I'm a total convert to using stereo parabolic recording, based entirely on
the pleasing recordings I've obtained. Arguments pale in comparison to the
nice results I've obtained. Stereo parabolic recordings are a pleasure to
listen to back in the studio. They provide a whole new aesthetic dimension
to using a parabola.
