Recordist's notes

Sounds of distant traffic, owls, chickens, my faint snoring and an apple falling towards the end around 4am. From an overnight recording with the microphones on the roof of my house just below an open window in the tiles. The red map marker shows the supposed location of most of the sounds. MixPre 6 II with 2 Sennheiser MKH 8020s 32 bit x 48k
