1. Discuss your experiences with building your microphones. Was this process more or less what you thought it would be? How did your microphone rig work on your Drift walks? Were you able to capture both overall ambiance and extreme closeups? Describe your ideal microphone and recorder setup, with unlimited time and money.
My experience with building the microphones was a mixed one. I was able to successfully solder my microphone together, which is much more than I had expected to accomplish. Not only that, but my recordings actually turned out well, my microphones had proved successful... though my wind masks gave me some trouble. What good is tape when it doesn't actually tape, I ask you? I think my ideal microphone would be a full on boom mic that they use to record sound in films. It's not that conspicuous, I know, but I mean, come on. I wear red Chuck Taylor's. Conspicuous is kind of out of the window at this point.
2. How was your experience with operating the MiniDisc recorder? How does this recorder compare to other audio equipment you've used? In an ideal world, how would your recorder of choice function?
My MiniDisc recorder experience was actually very ideal. Everything worked properly, everything sounded great... it just all worked. First time I've used audio equipment too. Not bad. I think my ideal recorder, though, wouldn't take ten minutes to save. That'd be kind of a nice add on.
3. Discuss the audio-editing software you chose and your history with this application. If you used this software for the first time, explain why you chose this particular application and how you think it helped you to accomplish your creative goals (or proved detrimental). Will you use this software again for future projects?

...Audacity...not a...fan. I... shouldn't have... chosen that piece... Audacity. It was a pain... to do the simplest... thing. Audacity was the thorn in my... If I see Audacity on the street, I'd... with a mango.
