From rebecca at rebeccasummers.co.uk Wed Apr 1 05:18:13 2009 From: rebecca at rebeccasummers.co.uk (Rebecca Summers) Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2009 09:18:13 +0000 Subject: [microsound] Callout for AV works Message-ID: Call out AV works Dear participant, I am currently studying a Masters in Music, Technology and Innovation at De Montfort University, UK. For my final dissertation, I am researching the use of visual media with electro acoustic compositions, and whether it helps the inexperienced listener of the electro acoustic genre, enjoy it more or less. Therefore I am looking for a number of works that have audio and visual content, so I am able to test my theories. If you were interested in participating in this study, please send your AV works to the following address: Rebecca Summers Music Department School of Sport, Performing Arts and Leisure University of Wolverhampton Walsall Campus Gorway Road Walsall WS1 3BD If you have any questions, please email me at r.summers at wlv.ac.uk or rebecca at rebeccasummers.co.uk _________________________________________________________________ View your Twitter and Flickr updates from one place ?

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <49D961B0.5010302@tech-no-mad.net> Hey folks -- I've been using a zoom H4 for a couple years now, and have been suspicious how a non-mechanical recording device -- in a really quiet place (for example the Sonoran desert of western Arizona) -- and the wave form of a short recording of a passel of birds in a mesquite tree at dusk shows a cyclic 3-sec repeating pattern which seems to be very low frequency something (sorry, don't have a spectral freq analyzer on my machine). I uploaded a screen shot of the waveform and a wav copy of the file -- any feedback? Has anyone else experienced this with the H4? I've seen it before on the files when recording in really quiet places, and of course I suppose the best solution is probably a few thousands spent in better field recording equipment, to be sure, but... what could be the cause? In this instance I was not hand holding it, it was on the ground in a stable place, and essentially no wind. There is also a higher-pitched whine as well, faugh! the sound file: http://neoscenes.net/09-03-092_birds.wav and a screen shot of the file in Peak showing the approximately 3-second repeating patterns http://neoscenes.net/09-03-092_birds.jpg cheers, John From picnet at urlme.net Mon Apr 6 02:01:40 2009 From: picnet at urlme.net (Mike) Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2009 09:01:40 +0300 Subject: [microsound] Zoom H4 tech query -- anybody else?

Perhaps try a different memory card. The periodic noise could be related to the H4s write/card interface. A phone or computer close to the recorder may also cause interference. Confirm the interference isnt acoustic born by recording with a different brand of recorder. Ive noticed with some mics if the connection from the backplate to the FET has solder flux / in general isnt clean the FET will produce broad spectral 'pops'.

This looks like a bug. I'd be curious how much RAM the H4 has. I'd also be curious if the period of the noise changes with the bit depth and sample rate. I'd also be curious if it does this while in USB mode, or only when recording to an SD device. My initial hunch would be that the Zoom "saves" or buffers the audio to RAM initially, and then writes it in bulk to the flash device. If so, that noise that you are seeing noise might be caused by it writing to the flash device. -ken ------------- On Mon, Apr 06, 2009 at 10:19:23AM -0400, Michael Palace wrote: > I have a zoom h4 and noticed this problem as well.

This thesis attempts to unveil this music?s construction as ?Futuristic? through a comparitive analysis of Techno composition and cinematic science fiction sound design. The process of forging sounds for a fictitious Future ? the role of the science fiction film sound designer ? is an apt analogical tool for deciphering meaning in this virtual machine music of the Third Wave, known as Techno. Many of the techniques and tools used in both science fiction sound design and the creation of contemporary Techno music are remarkably similar. Science fiction sound design seeks to make sounds for machines that do not exist ? imaginary machines that soar unencumbered by reality across the silver screen. Modern digital Techno music such as ?glitch? and ?microsound? draws its sounds from machines that do not exist, at least not in the spatial sense ? software simulacra that illuminate a computer screen. It is a link that few have made, and it may help explain why many present-day Techno subgenres sound the way they do, what they mean, and why, to certain ears, those sounds carry the signification of ?Futuristic.?

No phones or computers anywhere near -- I'm out in the boonies, hard core Sonoran desert, miles from anything (well, I do have my laptop in the car, but that is usually some distance away as I do long day hikes...

I am not using micro-drives, just solid-state chips for recording onto... Mike -- hmm, your wave form is different than mine, mine had an approx 3-second gap between glitches, looks like yours is around one -- this could point to the dump speed of the card, which might be 'pulsing' data bursts. Perhaps you have a faster card... it's clearly a 'clock' driven pulse in both cases, tho, precise and repetitive. That would make it easier to de-convolve with dsp, but... Ken, I think that's what you were suggesting, too, a burst of data being pumped onto the card. I'll check that out in the next few days, do some different samples in a quiet place. It's supposed to be rainy(!) or at least cloudy and cool in the desert, so, should be interesting ambience with the spring birds and such. (and hopefully the F-16's won't be dog fighting over the area as sometimes happens. makes for dramatic soundscapes, but is annoying when hunting for silence... ;-)) Cheers& thanks again jh From i.m.klif at gmail.com Tue Apr 7 02:42:41 2009 From: i.m.klif at gmail.com (klif _) Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2009 08:42:41 +0200 Subject: [microsound] Zoom H4 tech query -- anybody else?

Interesting design problem for the engineers -- and one that I am surprised that they missed. I didn't find it on the forums that I checked. I just got back from the desert where there was much silence but plenty of F/A-18 dog fighting (from Luke AFB in Tucson) going on in the skies above, talk about dynamic range! And the rattlesnake rattles were probably ruined by wind noise. Didn't want to get any closer and didn't have a boom!

"Trying to learn SuperCollider, ChucK, CSound, etc? why bother when all this stuff is so fucking easy in PD?"

I'll go away before I start acting like someone's dad... nice composition!
