Testing Custom Dead Cat
I purchased some faux fur and made a custom dead cat to fit over mics and my recorder. It was a pain to sew but hopefully helps in windy conditions. I added pull cords to ensure a snugger fit. I plan to build a DIY blimp soon which was also the reason for such a big dead cat. I used SE 7 matched pair with […]

Doing the Dishes Test
My first test of the Roland CS-10EM in ear Binaural recording monitors recorded on my Philips DVT7500 field recorder. * Best experienced with headphones* I’m very happy with these recorders and the ability to monitor live sound while recording will make for better future recordings. An option that is not available on the “Scenes Lifelike” recorders which can only monitor through the LifeLike software which […]
Grocery Checkout Test
My first test recording captured with the Scenes LifeLike VR Binaural Headphone recorders.

I must also state that again, at the time of this post, the iOS app “LifeLike” did not recognize […]
