We wanted to capture the prairie on a day before all the grasshoppers and crickets were out — sparse, open, quiet. Instead, what we found were two VERY windy days in early spring. Wind gusts of 20-40 MPH.
So now we have a Companion Pack to our previously released Grassland Prairies. Hear the tall grass whip and swish against a sparse background. Stretches of open quiet breezes. Clusters of violent gusts. Winds punctuated by heavy bursts. Occasionally you’ll hear a solitary bird song, as well as a special moment of two hawks tussling and diving in the whipping wind, their wings cutting the air right above the microphones and their companion birds cheering them on.
All sounds captured in 24/96 double-ORTF QUAD!
