Zipboingwow Show #1

This first show is an experiment in portability. I recorded it walking to work in the morning. All my equipment is battery powered and fits in my jacket pockets except for a small mixer which I had in my backpack. Music was played from a small mp3 player.

Going to Work MP3 test

Here's one for you voyeurs out there. I made a 12 minute recording of my drive to work. I used a Sony Minidisc recorder in my shirt pocket with a $30 RadioShack stereo clip-on mic. I positioned the microphones over my ears by clipping them to the frames of my glasses. This makes a binaural stereo recording which sounds very close to what I heard at the time. The recorder was set to automatic gain.
