Recordist's notes
Sports Day at elementary school. Recorded with binaurals Primo EM172 on Sound Devices Mixpre6. Sunny, average windy. I was slowly moving from the middle of stadium to gate, where the start point was, and back. Young athlets moved around while I crossed stadium longtitudionally. Reaching gate I mixed in small crowd, where shouts got louder. Back to the middle I captured the ambience of the stadium.
