This month has seen me working on my Binaural setup, adding phantom powering circuits into the XLR bodies to power my Primo capsule mics from the Soubd Devices Mix Pre3’s preamps, which allows me to use the super transparent limiters, which is pretty much essential when making Convolution reverb responses by bursting balloons in reverberant spaces. I have also been working on my DIY version of the Rode Baby Ball’s which uses baby play balls mounted on a mic T bar (see photo)
These will need fury wind screen covers and that's next 👍
I’ve also been making a load of Sourdough and perfecting the taste and crumb of my loaves but that’s another story.
I worked on a sound design thesis for an MA student. He gave me 2 short scenes to make original sound for and documented the process, the scenes were about memory loss and Alzheimers, and it was interesting so make sounds to highlight this memory loss on film.
Lastly iv’e been restoring the Leach style kick wheel I was donated with a lovely small kiln and the wheel is almost finished, the weather has paused this progress, next I’ll need to find a studio space to house these two things and start throwing again :)
