Hi R Lorrison,
I am sure others will want to know what your main objective or
operating style will be. Do you want to just make a record of
ambient sound or isolate certain bird calls?
I'm a bird watcher from Sonoma CA that became frustrated not being
able to sort out the many bird songs. I decided to build a rig that
could capture sounds as I birded then digest them later at home.
I ended up using two inexpensive binarual mics sewen into the
shoulders of a vest. The vest pocket holds my Sony Hi-MD recorder.
As I am somewhat hard of hearing, I use earphones to monitor what I
hear. As a result I can hear many more birds than normal and have a
record of everything going on around me.
This rig allows me free hands to hold binoculars, scopes or cameras.
Good luck,
Bob McLean,
Sonoma CA
