Hi Rob!
OK, I have posted the two requested clips. These are in a folder I created =
called FR2 and FR2-LE clips by Max. They were both at 16/48 with all gain a=
t maximum, and are the 'cleanest' I could find. One thing I missed was an e=
lectric clock about six feet away from the mics. Bye the way, in case it's =
relevant, the mics are set in a wooden Olsen type barrier array at the mome=
nt; I'm assuming this is not of concern.
I look forward to any comments or analysis with great interest, even if it =
turns out to be what I don't want to hear!
All the best
Max

ortunately I live in a fairly noisy location close to a major road, so I mi=

thinking that you'll want the excerpts as original?
