Re: [Sursound] Renting a TetraMic or other ambisonic mic
I must dig out the archive and have a listen again. I just delivered the files to the chaps doing the video presentation, which was for VIPs only, so I never got to hear what they did with the audio in the end. I may post files - you never know! By the way, when can we expect a Rycote Cyclone for a Soundfield? And a M/S array, come to that. Hurry them along a bit down there in the west-country.

Re: [Sursound] Renting a TetraMic or other ambisonic mic
Thanks for the insight John. I'm on a bigger than ship than you were but my biggest worry is the engine noise. We'll be on an ice cutter and my hope is that the squealing and crushing of the ice somewhat overpowers the engine. That and some careful EQ in post. Here's a photo of the ship: http://cdn2.shipspotting.com/photos/middle/8/0/1/2244108.jpg Bob - I'll call you on Monday.

"some careful EQ in post" and maybe a bit of Cedar Cambridge! I'm at work today and taking Monday off. Will be back in the office Tuesday PM.
