Binaural Walk through Waterloo Station, by Michael Maroussas
Michael Maroussas has published a great post about a recording he recently did on a train station, using binaural microphones:
I bought myself a new pair of mics for Christmas – MM-BSM-8 In-Ear Binaural Microphones (mine are a new, smaller design than the ones shown in the link) from Microphone Madness in the States. I’m embarrassed to tell you that I’ve only just got round to trying them out…..
I’ve started taking a slightly different route into the West End recently, which means my train now takes me into Waterloo where I catch the tube. The walk from the train platforms down to the tube takes you through quite a network of tunnels and corridors, and I’ve been struck recently by how interesting this walk is sonically, with acoustics changing quite significantly every 20-30 meters.

March 23, 2011Thanks Miguel – just to let you know that, for those who are interested, I’m going to update the post with a pic of the new smaller Mics very soon (probably won’t get a chance to until Friday night).
Many thanks,
Michael
