Test Recordings

I recorded this in my living room with mics in an X-pattern on the couch very close together, using a Tascam DR-70D and Behringer Dyynamic Microphones with patch cables for optimal volume. I recorded this at maximum gain on the Tascam as two Stereo files, then conjoined them to a 6-channel audio file properly and mixed the front two channels to a Monaural center channel for added effect. The final result is what can be downloaded here.

Tghe music in the background is part of the Star Trek: Generations expanded complete score, and is coming from my computer to the rear of the recording, which lasts just over a minute in length, and the music was just background noise for testing purposes only. No copyright infringement was intended. Credit for the music goes to the now Late Jerry Goldsmith and also Dennis McCarthy, who is still alive.

I hope you like this audio demonstration, and find it useful when considering rigs like the Holophone, or comparible 5.1 Surround Sound microphones / rigs.

I take no credit for this recording, as it was done for demonstration purposes only. Have fun!
