These ambience recordings feature a Zoom H3VR under a bush 5 meters from the waters edge but at the edge of a forest. The Rode NTSF was at the water’s edge with a gentle breeze. The Hydrophone was in the lapping waves at the water’s edge next to the NTSF. A handheld shotgun mic was also nearby to point at flocks or birds as they passed by. The BassArp (3 electric bass string aeolian harp) was leaning against a log at the water’s edge and received the same gusts that the NTSF would have had. There is also a creative mix that features all sources together.

These recordings are 24bit/48kHz wav masters, edited into segments featuring countryside atmospheres.
