Guest Anonymous Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 G'day all, I'm having problems with recording from a vehicle with my Sony MZ-N707 and a set of microphones. I'm getting a lot of "flutter", clicks, and skips in my recordings. This occurs especially when I'm on a bumpy road. I've heard other people's recordings and they seem to be okay. What am I doing wrong? :x TerminalVeloCD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJ Posted June 28, 2003 Report Share Posted June 28, 2003 It might be the constant vibration playing havoc with your recorder, or it could be that the recording level is set too high. Give it a go in a nonmoving environment--plug in your entire mic outfit and record your stereo playing from across the room, or a conversation or something. Fiddle with the record level (max it out, then turn it down) to see if your record level is the culprit. If you can't reproduce the noise in this recording, it's gotta be the vibration. If this is the case, see if you can dig up a rig for absorbing the shock (a spring table or even a bath towel folded over and over to make a thick pad) the next time you're in the vehicle.

Guest Anonymous Posted July 2, 2003 Report Share Posted July 2, 2003 Thanks to everybody who replied. I have since found out that the source of my troubles was my microphone. I have since replaced it with a Sony MD microphone. Once again thank you to all who replied. TerminalVeloCD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
