Custom shockmount/windshield for RODE NT1-As

["Tom Williams" pterodax]

Hi all,
After being interested in nature recording for years, but never really
having any kit that would allow me to get decent results, I finally took the
plunge and ordered a pair of RODE NT1-A microphones. Inspired by the work of
some of the group members I've constructed an ORTF array with shockmounts
and windshields. I've posted some pictures and details at
http://www.pterodaktyl.co.uk in the hope that they may be of use to others
who are, like me, taking their first steps in the complex but fascinating
world of nature recording.
I also have a test recording of our garden frogs, who seem to be
particularly energetic this spring - maybe a reaction to the cold winter
we've had? It's at the end of the blog post linked to above, or you can
download it direct from here:

Cheers,
