Title: Sony PCM-D50 "nature" recording samples
Post by: stantheman1976 on August 03, 2008, 01:11:16 AM
In this instance "nature" means my back yard.  I live where there's plenty of people but we all have decent sized front and back yards so there are plenty of frogs, crickets, and such around us.  I wanted to hear how the D50 internal mics and preamp compares to others I have. 

All were recorded in 24 bit/44.1KHz, normalized to 0dB + re-sampled to 16 bit in Audition 1.5, and encoded to 192kbps MP3 with Lame.
