A fly has just flown into my right ear and out again :-))
Very nice Raimund, I liked the Herons flying past and the water splash at t=
he end was good. For a point-and-shoot recorder I thought it did a very res=
pectable job.
The bats were something else the sound was great. I thought you got a real =
sense they were echo locating. The last loud 'ping' at the end had quite a =
pronounced echo to it. What post processing did you do to the bat recording=
. I ask as I am getting interested in bats, we have several come out and fl=
y around our house, and I would like to be able to record them and 'hear' t=
he result.
Thanks for these recordings it will help me make my decision on what point-=
and-shoot recorder I should get. As I am looking for something I can use on=
its own or with my MixPre, the PCM-D50 is looking like my main candidate.
Regards
Phil
PS
My first attempt to reply to this post ended in a blank post, why I don't k=
now. But sorry about that everyone.
