Hello All,

New here but been doing this since the 300 Baud days of BBS'es
(So probably know some of you cats!)

I can't find or remember where I posted a similar thread so I'll just throw this one in for giggles. I was seeking info on some other subject when google sent me to AKG and I found the page good enough to link here for some of the beginners to large/small ensemble acoustic recording.

The subject of mic arrays comes up quite a bit or is implied in many of the responses to questions here at RO. Here is a vid of what appears to be a custom built Decca Tree with extra attachment points. Posting this vid is not an endorsement of any mic pictured or advocating using that many microphones all the time/as a universal application.

I posted on this board a while back about what equipment to use to locate a singing bird within a microphone array. I purchased stand alone units from wildlifeacoustics.com to do everything I need (omnidirectional mics, gps for time syncing, and sd card for .wav file storage). We are going to have a total of 6 microphones.

Hi,

I am going to start off by saying I am a pHD student in evolutionary biology, so my knowledge of acoustics and what not are minimal at this point. I am enrolled in an engineering noise control class this semester to fix that.

This is a partially condensed version of Tony Andrew's PLASA dissertation on point source vs line array technology.

I am trying to decide on a harddrive arrangement for my new DAW setup.

I originally thought about this:

1x WD 250GB for applications/installations/OS
2x WD 250GB for Samples/Library running in a RAID 1?
2x WD 750GB for Session/Project files running in a RAID 1?

First, let me apologise for hogging posts by posting two in a row but I am on holidays.

I have been doing mid side recording now for some time in a variety of contexts (foley, recording ensembles, choir) and using a variety of mic set ups. Usually I am using Sennheiser. MHH40/30 with rather loose middle provided by the MKH40. I like this technique.

hello,

I want to build an array of mics for direccional detection of acoustical signal about 6-10 meters from the sound source

What are the most direccional shotguns you know of ?

Regards

:) Hi all! Just preparing for the inevitable, I have a RAID storage system with hot swap type drives. The system sees the whole drive as D, storage, in a network. If one fails, how can I quickly determine the lost content?
