描述：春天鸟鸣声在卢顿（英国）公园的风中吹过上面的树木。

描述：这是我在这个地方连续录制两个 "主要 "风铃时，用第二个录音机录制的第二张，也是较短的一张。 2013年3月5日，我带着一大一小两套廉价的竹制风铃和三套优质的金属风铃，来到我经常实地录制风铃的地点英国德文郡德鲁斯泰因顿的泰恩峡谷。这一次，在我从德鲁斯泰格顿走过来的第一个小时里，迎接我的是意想不到的完全没有风。对于记录鸟类来说，这很好，但对于风铃来说就不一样了。然后，我宁愿自己只记录鸟类，而我的风铃只是一个令人厌烦的死物，在猎人之路漫长的大部分开放和相对平坦的路段上，在陡峭的山谷北侧的高处，我注意到一棵特殊的位置很好的矮橡树，似乎在向我招手，向我指出它有一个很好的合适的树枝排列，这将使我在不同组的风铃之间获得适当的平衡。所有这些都很好，但当然只是为了记下下次使用，因为现在我想在没有风的情况下录制风铃，看起来很傻！我想这是一个很好的机会。 好吧，除了那一刻开始有了风的气息，刚好足以让树枝动起来。就这样，我在这里布置了一下，风逐渐大了起来，毕竟风铃给我带来了可爱的表演。 正如已经指出的，这是第二次，也是这次特别录音中两次 "远距离 "录音中较短的一次，为此，我再次使用Joby GorillaPod将录音机放置在猎人小道上与风铃相同（下坡）的树枝上，距离稍远，所以可能离 "主要 "风铃录音机位置约50米。我搬到这个位置，特别是因为在靠近风铃的地方，鸟儿的声音似乎已经不大，但在这里还是比较有声有色，这里几乎有一片树丛。然而，令我失望的是，当我把这段录音录好后，风来了不少，但鸟声却很少。然而，这并不是故事的全部。这个地方的特殊树木，包括好心接待录音师的那棵树，仍然带着相当多的老枯叶，当阵风吹过时，它们沙沙作响，剧烈地响着。当时我想这可能是一个相当浪费的记录。 在这种情况下，从我后来回到家里的角度来看，这至少是我在那天获得的最美好的录音之一。枯叶的声音给人一种真正美丽的风的印象，可以隐约听到吉普赛风铃的声音，在焦距内出现和消失，这就是我一段时间以来一直想从那些吉普赛风铃中捕捉的神秘的、强烈的忧郁的、甚至是 "幽灵般的 "声音。我现在唯一的遗憾是，我没有让这个录音至少运行整整半个小时。 录音中使用的风铃是竹制风铃，有大有小（不精确地调成全音阶的样子），还有Music of the Spheres吉普赛风铃，有中音和高音两种尺寸（调成听起来很麻烦、很忧郁的东欧吉普赛风铃）。然而，实际上只有吉普赛风铃能在这么远的地方听到，至少在任何重要的程度上。 这是10多分钟录音中的5分钟节选。 (后记：这段录音声音比这里好在我的一张商业CD上，可以在我的电子商店。) http://www。broadhorizonnature.co.uk/recordingchimesbymidhunterspath.jpg">http://www.broadhorizonnature.co.uk/recordingchimesbymidhunterspath.jpg这张照片显示了正在进行的 "主要 "录音中的第二次。请注意吉普赛风铃的位置明显比竹制风铃更靠后，而为了获得良好的平衡，录音机也离它们相当远。这批乐器实际上被隐藏在这里描述的远处录音的位置上。 用索尼PCMM10在Joby GorillaPod上进行的录音，使用内置的麦克风，用Rode Dead Kitten防风罩覆盖。我使用Audacity应用了一个自定义的EQ配置文件，以纠正挡风玻璃造成的高频消音，同时也纠正了低频中可听到的 "驼峰"，这是我在处理所有录音前得到的。 请记得给这个录音打分！ http://www.broadhorizonnature.co.uk/meicon_wink.gif

描述：This is the first and longer of two additional recordings made with a second recorder, while my two consecutive 'main' chimes recordings were taking place at this spot. On 5th March 2013 I took out with me a large and a small set of cheap bamboo chimes and three sets of quality metal wind chimes, to my regular field recording location for wind chimes the Teign Gorge, Drewsteignton, Devon, UK. On this occasion, for the first hour of my walkin from Drewsteignton, I was greeted by unexpected lack of wind altogether. Fine for recording birds, but not for the chimes Then, rather resigning myself to recording birdsonly, and to my chimes being just a tiresome deadweight, out on the long mostly open and relatively level stretch of the Hunter's Path, high up on the north side of the steep sided valley, I noticed a particular nicely situated stunted oak tree that seemed to be beckoning me, pointing out to me that it had a nice arrangement of suitable branches, which would enable me to get the right balance between the different sets of chimes. All very well, but of course just for noting to use another time, for right now I'd look silly trying to record chimes with no wind Well, except that just that moment breaths of wind started coming on, just enough to make twigs move. And so it was that I set up here, with the wind gradually getting up and actually giving me a lovely performance from the chimes after all. There was more than one fly in the ointment, however, for a whole succession of mostly highaltitude aeroplanes came over, so I had to cut out quite a number of bits in this recording, and still there are some brief bits of very distant aeroplane sound in the edited recording and also, there must have been a tractor at work in the field that tops the hill on this side, for I could hear a quiet sortof nagnagnagging of very low frequency motor noise, which could not sensibly all be removed from the recordings. Despite that, though, I ended up with four very beautiful recordings from this spot two 'main' chimes recordings, and then two natural soundscape recordings with the chimes at a distance. As already noted, this is the first and longer of the two 'distant' recordings, and for this I used a Joby GorillaPod to seat the recorder on a tree branch on the other (uphill) side of the Hunter's Path, just a little further along, so probably about 25 metres from the 'main' chimes recorder position. It is thus a particularly quiet recording, and it would be a mistake to turn the volume up for this. I left this recording running when I took down the Pluto chimes for the second 'main' recording, and because that meant an intrusive disturbance in this recording, I chose, rather than break this recording into two, to simply cut out the disturbance. So, partway through, the tone of the chimes 'mysteriously' changes once the Pluto chimes are removed from the mix. You then hear just how intensely mysterious and melancholy the Gypsy chimes sound at a distance. The chimes used are bamboo chimes, large and small set (imprecisely tuned to a semblance of the whole tone scale), Woodstock Chimes of Pluto (tuned to a radiant 'happy' pentatonic scale), and Music of the Spheres Gypsy Chimes, Mezzo and Soprano sizes (tuned to a troubled and melancholysounding Eastern European Gypsy scale). The combination of the metal chimes sounds remarkably different from either on their own, and is very beautiful indeed. As for the birds in this recording, I am unable to name them all (as yet), though chaffinch, skylark, raven, pheasant and many others did figure. However, they sang less and less during my session at this position, so, rather late in the recording session, I then moved this recorder to a still more distant position further along the path (probably some 4050 metres away) for the second and much shorter 'distant' recording. This is a 5minute excerpt from the full 30 minutes' recording. (Later note: This recording with better sound than here is on one of my commercial CDs, and can be found in my eStore.)http://www.broadhorizonnature.co.uk/recordingchimesbymidhunterspath.jpgThis photo shows the second of the 'main' recordings taking place. Note the placement of the Gypsy chimes distinctly further back than the bamboo chimes, and the recorder fairly well back from them all in order to get a good balance. Recording made with a Sony PCMM10 on a Joby GorillaPod, using the builtin microphones covered with a Rode Dead Kitten windshield. I have used Audacity to apply a custom EQ profile to correct for the high frequency muffling caused by the windshield, and also to correct for an audible 'hump' in the lower bass frequencies, which I get in ALL my recordings prior to processing.

描述：2012年11月21日，我带着一大一小两套廉价的竹制风铃和两套Woodstock（优质金属）风铃出门。我把风铃挂在夏普托的一棵位置特别好的矮树的小树枝上，就在猎人之路旁边，那里可以俯瞰过陡的山谷（俗称提恩峡谷，虽然它实际上不是一个峡谷），非常靠近德罗戈城堡。实际上，这块岩石挡住了谷底提恩河的视线和最直接的声音，在这个地方，我有必要把录音机朝向另一个方向，背对着猎人之路。 这一天，提恩河的背景声音其实比平时要大不少，因为一夜之间下了一场特殊的雨，造成当地相当普遍的洪水事件，因此今天的河流都非常满。 这段录音是我在埃克塞特当地购买的两套竹制风铃，每套只花了几英镑。它们都有相当不精确的调音，但尽管如此，大的一套给人以全音阶的感觉（当与其他风铃一起使用时，听起来一定很有趣），而小的一套，虽然在调音上似乎更不确定，但在大的一套的范围内增加了一个三音和其他 "有趣 "的音程。我总是选择将两套竹编钟放在一起使用。这种组合有一种有趣的、"泥土的 "声音，对我来说，"原样 "听起来很好，但与我的一些金属风铃结合起来，也会产生非常有趣的效果，至少我自己觉得它们非常漂亮。在这段录音中，它们的声音或多或少是安静的，因为风还没有达到最佳水平。 这是13分钟以上的完整录音中的5分钟节选。 http://www.broadhorizonnature.co.uk/chimesgregorianplutorecordingsharptordrogo500x375.jpg这张照片显示了我2012年11月21日的录音室在Teign Gorge北侧高处的Sharp Tor。可以看到的钟声是Woodstock Gregorian Chimes和Chimes of Pluto. 用索尼PCMM10在Hama迷你三脚架上进行录音，用Rycote迷你Windjammer覆盖内置麦克风。我在WavePad中使用了一个图形均衡器配置文件来补偿Windjammer造成的轻微消音。 请注意，这个录音的音量水平已经被仔细调整过了，到目前为止，我所有的录音都是要用一个音量设置来听的，这个音量设置可以为古典音乐（一个大型但不特殊的交响乐团）的播放提供一个真实的水平。如果你有正确的音量设置，你应该不需要从我的一个录音中改变这个设置。(后记：这段录音声音比这里好在我的一张商业CD上，可以在我的电子商店。)

描述：On 18th February 2013 I took out with me a large and a small set of cheap bamboo chimes and three sets of quality metal wind chimes, to my regular field recording location for wind chimes the Teign Gorge, Drewsteignton, Devon, UK. This time, however, a brisk and fairly cold southeasterly wind drove me away from spots that would have been suitable on previous occasions, and this time eventually I settled for Hunter's Tor, a southrunning rather rocky crest and spur that bounds the north side of the west end of the Teign Gorge. This was about half the height from the valley bottom as compared with my previous recording spots here, and a result of this was that my recordings here got more bird sound, which was an improvement. However, the spot still turned out not to be ideal, in that, for a start, the recording was picking up some unwanted sounds from the fringing countryside. A distant cockerel belonging to one of the farm cottages down among the woods out to the west (straight ahead in the recording) kept crowing, and there was some power saw activity at times far away to the south. For the most part I removed parts of my recordings here in which the power saw was audible, though I think there is still a trace of it buried in a few of the noisier parts where the chimes were very active. As for the cockerel, although I didn't really want it, I had little option but to accept it as 'part of the scenery'. Also, the wind gusts were sometimes a bit too strong against the recorder, so that, despite its windshield, the microphone wind noise became a bit overpowering albeit quite briefly. This was primarily the case for this particular recording my first one at this spot because I had the recorder in a position that caught the wind just a little more. Well, that was my initial impression, but upon subsequent listening through my hifi system I have considerably uprated my assessment of this recording. Yes, some wind gusts are strong, but definitely within my limits of acceptability, and they simply give a greatly exhilarating effect. The sound of these particular chimes themselves is truly beautiful to my ears, at least in this setting, even though their sound is a dry staccato with no obvious 'sustain'. Indeed, I find the full 26minute recording unsatisfyingly SHORT, and I feel a certain regret at not having continued the recording to about 40 minutes I note the relative lack of interest in my bambooonly chimes recordings by visitors to my Freesound pages, and that is a pity, because they are missing something very beautiful because of the preconceptions they evidently have about bamboo chimes sound. I hung the chimes on small low branches of a particular well situated stunted tree, and had the recorder facing west, so that the fairly distant rushing sound of the River Teign well below was to the left. However, that sound is also combined with a general distant rushing sound of wind in the trees on the valley slopes which is why its volume does vary during the recordings. This recording is of the bamboo Chimes only both large and small sets. It is a 5minute excerpt from the 26 minutes full recording. http://www.broadhorizonnature.co.uk/recordingchimes5setshunterstor1302181.jpgThis photo shows my highlevel recording studio for this particular day on Hunter's Tor. The sets of chimes visible are the bamboo chimes, Chimes of Pluto, and Gypsy Chimes (Soprano and Mezzo). In this recording only the bamboo chimes were used (hanging at the same positions as shown), but the recorder was a bit further from them, on the left hand side of the track that you see in the foreground, and that meant, as already noted, that it was picking up a bit more wind than it was in the photographed position. Recording made with a Sony PCMM10 on a Velbon Mini Tripod, using the builtin microphones covered with a Rode Dead Kitten windshield. I have used a graphic EQ profile in Audacity to compensate for the slight muffling of the sound caused by the windshield. I caution that the wind noise in the microphones is bound to sound too intrusive when this recording is played back through speakers / headphones that are prone to boominess; good quality hifi speakers with extended and flat bass response are really needed for any of these recordings really to sound right. Please note that the volume level of this recording has been carefully adjusted for listening purposes, and ALL my recordings so far are meant to be listened to with a volume setting that would give a realistic level for playback of CLASSICAL music (a large but not exceptional symphony orchestra). If you have the right volume setting, you should not need to change that setting from one recording of mine to another.(Later note: This recording with better sound than here is on one of my commercial CDs, and can be found in my eStore.)

描述：风吹和鸟鸣的声音

描述：风在竹林里

描述：On 28th November 2012 I took out with me a large and a small set of cheap bamboo chimes and two sets of Music of the Spheres Gypsy (quality, metal) wind chimes the Soprano and Mezzo sizes, the sounds of which latter two mesh together beautifully. My intention was to hang the chimes on the same tree that I had used for my recordings a week earlier, at Sharp Tor, by the Hunter's Path, high up on the north side of the oversteepened part of the River Teign valley known as the Teign Gorge, Devon, UK. In the event the wind, being from a northeasterly direction this time, was not sufficiently reaching anywhere along there, and I finally reluctantly went higher up on the slope, almost to the top, where a chilly breeze was coming over and moving the tree branches a bit. I hung the chimes on one tree and made one recording, but after nearly 10 minutes of rather modest activity the wind got up more and then appeared to be too continuously on the strong side, so I then moved to a nearby tree that was not catching the wind so strongly, to make the further recordings, including this one. Being this high up was not ideal, for the sound of the River Teign in the valley bottom, although still audible, is heard only indirectly and faintly, so, when listening to the recording, it is difficult to tell what is the nature of the very faint continuous roar in the background. Also, here I was very close to the grazed pasture that covers the broad top of the hill, and a result of this is that all this day's recordings are punctuated by faint moos from distant cattle that were far away and out of sight. This recording is of the two sets of bamboo chimes, which I had purchased locally in Exeter for just a few pounds each, plus the Music of the Spheres Gypsy Chimes, Soprano size. The refined ethereal, 'liquid' tone and precise tuning of these metal Music of the Spheres chimes contrast beautifully with the dry, earthy rattlings, clatterings and 'donkings' of the bamboo chimes. Indeed, these Gypsy chimes, with their particular timbre and tuning to some sort of Eastern European scale, sound at a distance like some ghostly organ playing. People who passed by while I was making recordings with these chimes tended spontaneously to use the words 'haunting' and 'magical'. This is a 5minute excerpt from the 29+ minutes full recording. http://www.broadhorizonnature.co.uk/chimesbamboogypsymezzorecordingaboveteigngorge450x405.jpgThis photo shows my recording studio for 28th November 2012 almost at the top of the north side of the Teign Gorge, and facing obliquely away from it. The sets of chimes visible are the large and small bamboo, with the Gypsy Mezzo in the middle.Note that actually this was a first time learning experience for me with the Gypsy chimes, and actually for best effects the Gypsy chimes needed to be about twice the distance from the recorder than I actually used on this particular day, on account of their having a stronger and more penetrating tone than my other chimes. Recording made with a Sony PCMM10 on a Hama minitripod, using the builtin microphones covered with a Rycote Mini Windjammer. I have used a graphic EQ profile in WavePad to compensate for the slight muffling of the sound caused by the Windjammer.I caution that the wind noise in the microphones is bound to sound too intrusive when this recording is played back through speakers / headphones that are prone to boominess; good quality hifi speakers with extended and flat bass response are really needed for any of these recordings really to sound right. Please also note that the volume level of this recording has been carefully adjusted for listening purposes, and ALL my recordings so far are meant to be listened to with a volume setting that would give a realistic level for playback of CLASSICAL music (a large but not exceptional symphony orchestra). If you have the right volume setting, you should not need to change that setting from one recording of mine to another. N.B. Initially I gave all this day's recordings a 3dB cut of the lower bass to somewhat lighten the sound of the wind in the microphones, and so all the excerpts here from this day's recording have that bass reduction. However, subsequently, on careful listening, especially through my decent hifi speakers, I came to the conclusion that the wind noise in the microphones did not reach a level at which such processing was really necessary, and so I have subsequently restored those bass frequencies to the full recordings, with a distinct improvement in the sound as heard through my hifi speakers.

描述：周日早晨远处教堂的声音响彻（圣十字教堂，Crediton，德文郡，英国）。钟声在风中传播，它本身在树上可以听见。伯德桑。 2015年5月31日上午9点，飞艇上的变焦H6和Rode NT4上录制。
