Recorded 250 meters from the runway at 90 degrees to the direction of the planes. This is the raw matrix recording (that is 2 sets of stereo mics mixed down to a single stereo file). I was using a Rode NT4 in blimp on mic-stand (see pic) and AT3032 stereo pair (mainly for the bass frequencies sitting in the boot of the car just to get them out of the wind - note I wasn't sitting on the sill when the recordings were made). Three passenger-jet takeoffs have been recorded, the first one was way louder than I was expecting so pegged the limiter in my MixPre and so sounds a little clipped in places, at about 57 sec you can hear I dropped the levels. The last two were captured at about the right levels. This recording has lots of bass, so if you have a sub-woofer, turn it on :) Recording chain - Rode NT4 (stereo mic)- Sound Devices MixPre - Edirol R44 (channels 1+2 24 bit @ 44.1 kHz). Audio Technica AT3032 (stereo mic pair) - Edirol R44 (channels 3+4 24 bit @ 44.1 kHz) - Mixed down to a stereo 44.1 kHz 16 bit WAV file.

What airport is this recorded at? Great sample as always!

This has awesome dynamic sound all the way though. You even hear birds fly over a few seconds before the roar of the huge jet plane. Your recordings never fail!
Hope the R44 is going nice for you!

awesome setup & recording. Devices capable of 120+ dB are definitely more challenging to record.

Here's the general setup...(omni mics in boot)...
