metronome_14m_140,7bpm.flac

my contribution to the freesouond collaborative performance of gyorgi ligeti's "Poème Symphonique for 100 metronomes". the metronome is marked "Wittner" and "Made in W. Germany". it ran for a little over 13 minutes at about 140.7 bpm.

recorded on the hardwood floor of my bedroom, with the mic in front about 30 cm away. equipment used: Oktava MK102 mic, ART Digital MPA preamp, M-Audio Audiophile card.

this sample is completely unprocessed. it looks limited or clipped, but i can't hear it - must be from the tube preamp (i had the gain cranked way up). it's pretty quiet, but if you listen carefully you may hear some noises in the background, especially near the beginning where i leave the room.
