I have been given permission to record in a factory locally to me, which is something I have never tried before. I have gone on a recon trip and had a tour around which I recorded with my portable recorder an R-26.
One of the issues I can foresee from the recording I took is the facility runs off compressed air for a lot of machines, which creates a constant background drone which for a factory ambiance is great, but there are some machines which have some really cool sounds I want to try to isolate as much as possible.
I was wondering if anyone with some more experience recording in a noisy environment had some advice on techniques I can use to get the best results on the day?
Thanks.
