Recorder Comparisons

Raw audio of a fireworks display at Godalming, England. I recorded this event simultaneously with a Zoom H1 and Zoom H4n Pro to compare the quality. Annoyingly, the organizers also blasted music during the event, so the moments of quiet are tainted with distant, though obscured music.

This sound is not in the public domain. Please attribute/credit the sound if you use it. If you would prefer to not have to give attribution, then take a look at the attribution-free license.

With the sounds of that girl screaming, this definitely sounds more like an American school than fireworks.
