walking through thick wet mud.wav

An unintended recording of me and a passerby walking through very thick and wet mud on the Walthamstow marshes. I was out testing new gear and couldn't remove the mics from my rucksack strap to avoid picking up the rustle of my clothing or my occasional heavy breathing.

This recording was made using a Sound Devices MixPre6ii and a stereo pair of FEL EM172 mics. Low cut on the SD which in basic mode is 80Hz (I think).

There is no processing to this recording other than to ‘normalize’ the levels.

I do not require any credit or attribution.
