Soundscape Practice

Today we had our first go at creating soundscapes from our own sounds that we recorded. We used the K6 sennheiser microphone to record these sounds and this was able to pick up very quiet sounds as it is so sensitive. We recorded sounds around the university campus, such as conversations in the background, and the cars around us. We also recorded me ordering, paying for and buying a cheese toastie in order to experiment with different themes in editing. 



We also recorded sounds that we created ourselves, such as bins opening and closing, doors, and throwing stones in a pond. This meant that we had a mixture of natural sounds, such as trees, and manmade sounds to use in our scape. 


We then imported these sound clips to Adobe Audition in order to edit them. This task gave me an idea of using our own sounds in an edit, and will lead me onto creating a new sound walk next week and being able to play around with the audio on the software.
