Are any people here using omnis to record nature sounds? And, if so,
what spacings are you using?
Assuming I wanted to capture a 360 degree scene, like a dawn chorus in
a rainforest, what would you recommend?
Theory suggests that if I want to capture such a scene, I'd need a
spacing that allows a 180 degree recording angle, and is able to
compress that width into a stereo signal that extends from hard left
to hard right. According to Image Assistant, a spacing between 22cm
and 25cm will do it with minimum angular distortion (only at the
extremes, beyond 75% hard left or right).
Any thoughts or suggestions from those using omnis for nature
recording would be appreciated.
