There is some noise reduction applied along with some levelling to balance the multi-microphone takes. No Eq, neither\u00a0compression has been applied to what you will listen to in the video.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/145396550?byline=0&amp;portrait=0\" width=\"500\" height=\"211\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Some days before the flypast I recorded a rehearsal with a Sony PCM-M10, which allowed me to think and plan on how I would do the actual recording the day of the\u00a0exhibition. I though about several techniques and microphone positions and finally decided\u00a0to try\u00a0a simultaneous recording in\u00a0ORTF with 2 Sennheiser MKH8040, MS with a Sennheiser MKH30 and a Sennheiser MKH8050, AB with 2 DPA4061 and mono signal from a Sennheiser MKH60 mounted in a boompole.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-362\" src=\"http:\/\/samplingtheworld.fernandosannicolas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/AB.png\" alt=\"AB\" width=\"1003\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/samplingtheworld.fernandosannicolas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/AB.png 1003w, https:\/\/samplingtheworld.fernandosannicolas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/AB-300x177.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1003px) 100vw, 1003px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Each of the setups provides a good and distinct quality to the recording. In ORTF I can say I liked the extra stereo width that it provides while keeping a very good balanced on all the range. In my view it is the more &#8220;clinical&#8221; setup of all four. The benefit in the MS setup is the possibility to control the intensity balance for the main and side channels. AB provides the most prominent low-end. The mono setup gives me a different tone which could work as a layer on specific situations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Afterwards I mixed some of the elements to picture depending on how they blended together. So, after listening to them, which one would you choose as your favorite, go-to combination?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"excerpt\">This is a recording of a military flypast exhibition happening during the Spanish National Day, October 2015.
