Re: [all-audio] Accessible Field Recorder
Actually, want to start with something that's easy to use, yet I can grow into it as my skills develop. Can do without binaural if that will make things less complicated. I also plan to use GoldWave as my sound editor, as Sound Forge is too expensive. thoughts on a good, small, portable, yet accessible recorder? thanks.--Matthew Chao On 10/9/2023 7:59 AM, Hamit Campos wrote: Mathew. How big do you want the recorder? Cause in your case you could if you don't need XLRs just get the Zoom H3 VR. But if you want XLRs this next 1 will be quite big though and it's 3 apps on a touch screen. But you could get the new Zoom H8 and it's VR H8 peace. It comes with the XY H6 from the 6. But if you want wider you can get it's XAH8 peace.

Re: [all-audio] Documentary: Apollo 11 - A Step That Changed The World
I was 15, and on vacation in Italy with my mom and younger brother. we were sitting in a small restaurant at about 8:30 at night, listening to the moon landing on my Sears shortwave radio. Everybody there was silent as the landing progressed, and cheered once it was successful. Pretty amazing for a kid away from home.--Matthew Chao On 7/14/2019 1:35 AM, Colin Howard wrote: Greetings, I am old enough to have watched the landing at halfpast three in the morning of 21 July 1969, on a small black-and-white 405-line tv set.
