Frog Call Recording Reviews and How Tos
Posted: January 15th, 2013, 9:38 pm
Although this is the "Image Lab", this seems like as good a place as any to include discussion on the importance of recording frog calls.
So I will compile some reviews and how to's for those interested in exchanging ideas about how to record good frog calls for the HERP database and how to edit those calls.
- A post showing how to clean up frog call recordings using the free, but powerful audio editor called Audacity - viewtopic.php?f=15&t=14353&p=172096
- Some thoughts on choosing a recorder for anuran calls - viewtopic.php?f=15&t=17363
- An external (but somewhat dated) link discussing recorder choices and explaining how to make a simple parabolic microphone - http://www.leaps.ms/Recording%20Natural%20Sounds.htm
- I found a guy on Ebay who makes and sells nice parabolas with or without microphone setup included. I bought one and have been very happy. And they cost less than $50 with no mic and less than $100 with a mic. He sells under the name sdill471 and I recommend him if you are looking for a cheap parabolic mic dish.
