Field Recording: Capturing Musical Sounds (Tips, Gear & Techniques) 1 of 3

The art of field recording can be applied in many ways—storytelling, news-gathering, sonic portraits, and of course music-making. In the first of our three-video field recording techniques series, producer & engineer Dennis Bunton discusses the creative choices that go into selecting a location, finding a variety of sources to record—from nature sounds to activating the space with percussive gestures—and the range of field recording equipment and gear you need to capture great audio.
