This is my first ever field recording using a professional audio recorder (PMD 660 Advanced) with a decent mic (Rode NT5). This recording is from Pisgah State Park in southern New Hampshire in late winter 2007. The sounds in this piece were recorded on a small stream that was mostly covered over with snow and ice with the exception of this one small opening. I used one microphone because the size of the opening caused this to be a truly monaural sound.
A couple notes from my journal:
This (recording) system has been amazingly more user-friendly than the M(ini)DV (camcorder), and provides much better sound quality.
There is quite a lot of depth to this seemingly simple sound, and it's even a bit trance-inducing.
