During my first trek with the recorder only, I had an immediate first concern, that we had even been warned about in class. As soon as I took a step outside with my microphone on and recording, it seemed that traffic was going to be the only sound I could find. I was lucky, on my first trek I went out in the rain, and was able to record some interesting drain's and puddles, but all of my recordings still seemed to be full of cars going by, and even more "boring," busses seemed to ramble past me at every street corner.
So, for my final trek, I took on a challenge, and attempted to use the traffic hum and busses for my own good. I recorded from within the bus so that the sound would be isolated, and then lowered the volume and pitch so that it sounded in the distance instead of surrounding my microphones. This can be heard in the final seconds of my final video.
