Hello Tom,
Just to say I have really enjoyed following the progress of your
project, well done indeed. It has caused me to think a little more
carefully about what it is I am recording myself when I am out and I
will be experimenting with mic focal point adjustments with my own
parabola (my manual dexterity would never allow me to build yours !).
I could well imagine that in the field you may want to work it both
directions depending on what was happening - in your situation you
have both focal species and broader soundscapes of the geese or waders
flying in or taking off etc.
One thought for you: the potentiometer noise may be hard to edit out.
Since there are probably only a few combinations of the capsules that
you would actually use in the field maybe a 3-way switch (focus, mix,
boundary) would enable a more rapid change with any changing bird
action, and may be a sharper noise interference and so easier to edit
out ? I say that having no clue what it would mean electronically for
you !
