The first day of recording was yesterday. We recorded the first out of three parts that we wrote down in the schedule. Myself and Jennie planned out the recordings carefully however there were a few problems that arose on the day. Firstly was the availability of locations. We needed to find a Location that had plenty of natural reverb in it however this was hard as all the halls in the university were unavailable and staircases were too busy for recording a clear track. Finally we used the performance studios at the bottom of Harmer. We also found that large rooms picked up the echo of distant sounds so during recordings we could hear little bits of background noise. Finally the setting up of the Marantz posed an issue as we were not sure on the proper technique of setting the preset manually. These problems were due to bad organisation in certain areas however we were still well equiped with our recording schedule and managed to get the recordings we wanted. This was our first day of recording therefore it was better to overcome these little mistakes now rather than come to them after recording and have unuseable audio recordings.
