Hi Rob,
The recording was made at Anakie Gorge, close to Geelong, in
Victoria, Australia. The point at which I did the recording was
quite narrow maybe 10 metres wide and had bare rock walls on each
side but opened out into quite gentle slopes in both directions along
the path. The area was badly burnt in bush fires in Jan 2006 and
doesn't really have much in the way of canopy. Most of the foliage on
trees is on young shoots growing from the trunks. It looks quite odd.
There was also significant wind further up the gorge as you could no
doubt hear.
I'm definitely still a beginner when it comes to recording, and I'm
just happy to get a recording without traffic noise!! Mic
positioning and general technique is definitely something that I'm
going to have to work on.
I've installed a demo of Uniqui-lizer, so I'd be interested in
looking at what you did with the recording if you were prepared to
share your settings/or a preset?
cheers
Paul
