This is a 4-channel fieldrecording of several Nightingales in a calm environment. Recorded at 2am in a cold(2°C) night at the beginning of May. The track starts with the 2 o'clock ringing church bell. The church is round about 500 meter away from the recording gear. The second church bell, which can be heard 7 seconds after the louder church bell comes from the church of the neighbour village 2,5km away.
In the distance you also will hear a signal horn of a train (12:31/21:35) and a roe deer is shouting (e.g at 12:46 / 13:29 / 17:14(click on the time to swap between elapsed and remaining time)). With his movement through the landscape you will hear different echos and reverb.

The 4 channels are recorded in IRT-cross technique (Microphone distance 25cm) so it is a 360° record.

(If you hear noise(floor), you hear it too loud.) ;-)

Very nice sound. Together with church sounds like a small village in germany.
