Recordist's notes

The sound of the stream in this place is a continuous pink noise (alike), a wide frequency range. I perceive a threatening depth in the sound. The higher frequencies are pleasantly and gently reflected through the damp bark of the coniferous trees. The entire environment is characterized by many other sound elements that extend over the entire stereo width. With attentive listening, the rustling of the leaves and other soft sounds are also perceptible. The audio material is unedited. The audio is recorded by Anton Acher with a Zoom F3 and Audix ADX51 Microphones (ORTF)
