Recordist's notes

A few minutes of the morning ambience as you slowly start to hear me enter up the hillside to collect my recording. A quick check of the recorder, it worked? Yes! (I've come to pick up my recorder before only to find that I didn't set it up properly and it only recorded a few hours which has been very dissapointing!) Recorded with an AT BP4025 into a Tascam DR-680. BixPower MP100 was used as an external battery, it still had about half it's battery life left when I picked it up the next morning. https://jeremyh.bandcamp.com/album/spring-night-to-morning-on-the-south-eastern-coast-royal-national-park https://soundcloud.com/jeremyhegge/spring-night-to-morning-on-the-south-eastern-coast-excerpt
