Recordist's notes

Meditation at Lancaster Priory. Recorded on a Tascam DR-40 with the on-board coincident pair of microphones. The gain is cranked right up, the Priory being very quiet with just movements of a member of the clergy preparing for the next service, the 9 o'clock bells and a visiting family towards the end of the recording.

Written by Richard Bentley on radio aporee ::: maps.
