NEW RELEASE – Songbirds Echoing in the Forest

Songbirds Echoing in the Forest - Sounds by Knight

Fill your sense with the beautiful sounds of birds singing in the forest by a gentle wilderness stream. The cheerful musical sounds of playful songbirds will both make you smile and soothe your soul. . .

May 17, 2016 and the songbirds were in full spring mode. I headed to Boyer Chute NWR and set up camp for the day. I had my Sennheiser MKH8040ST ORTF mics attached to a tripod and set up in different locations, some deep under the forest canopy, then out in the open area trying to capture the sounds of the refuge. My best recordings came from just inside the fringe of the forest where I was able to get some nice echoing sounds. Continue reading


New Release… Relaxing Gentle Stream!

Relaxing Gentle StreamWe have added another great title to our Collection…

“Relaxing Gentle Stream”

Recorded in Rocky Mountain National Park at Fall River Creek in Endo Valley.   This creek starts high in the Trail Ridge alpine and winds its way down through Endo Valley where it finally meets up with the Big Thompson River.

I was able to get special permission from the park ranger to re-enter this part of the park after closing to capture the sounds of the creek without any people around. I set the mics up along the rocky bank and let the recorder run for several hours throughout the night. I returned the next day and recorded at the same location using a hydrophone mic placed in the water to capture the gurgling sounds. I then mixed this in with the open air recording creating a very “open” dynamic recording.
