Hi there,
I have been to see the 4th stage of the Tour of Britain today and recorded about 25 mins. However, there is some wind noise on the sample. Should I not bother uploading? There are a few parts with no wind noise, but when the cars/bikes come past this causes some...

Cheers!

Cheers! mr_rolfi

edit it if you can. if the audio (wind noise) isn't that bad then maybe its worth it? there are plenty of files here that have wind noise in it (mine included) so try to edit it out or chop it up and take the useful parts.

Nothing is useless! I'm sure there will even be someone coming along sooner or later looking for good wind noise samples. grin

Please, upload to your heart's content.

Nothing is useless!

100% in agreement to this.
If you record it, try to find out a way to use
it--even it is things you've chopped out to
"clean up" a recording. These clicks, glitches,
and various detritus add character, IMO.
