Noise Study (just for fun). The aim of this study: Can I simulate a noisy ambience in quiet conditions without altering anything substantial in the sound? To prevent microphones from being blown closed by the wind, I filtered the recorder at Low-cut 160 Hz, 12 dB/Oct.

My microphones are under a hawthorn bush on the edge of a very quiet river with very small waves (a few centimetres high. See photo). The wind speed varies up to a maximum of 30 km/h, 3bft.
Rivier Maas bij Empel in Noord-Brabant 02
The first plane is a four-engine heavy military propeller transport aircraft (Lockheed Martin C-130J-30) and flies at 9 km altitude. The birds are far away. The waves at about 7 meters.

In my opinion it seems that the wind is very loud, but the sound of the waves are normal but sound very (too) close.

Date/time: April 21st Thursday 2022, start 12:48 PM

Weather in time: 14c, 24% cloudy, wind NE 3 bft with gusts to 30 km/h, 1014 hPa, humidity 43%.
