Recorded in a new school gym that sounded pretty good except for the bass
drum, which created about a 30 Hz rumble that carried for a couple of
seconds.
Roughly 40 x 60 x 24. Concrete block wall, wood floor, nondescript
ceiling. Looks like a band of 703 roughly 6' high running around the room
about 6' below the ceiling.
Other than that rumble of thunder, this was a fairly pleasant room--at
least with a floor full of performers and parents. Don't know how it would
sound empty.
Astonishing note: My local middle school (6th - 8th grades) has nearly 80%
participation in the performing arts. Over 400 students play string
instruments, another 400 in the six (!) bands, and like numbers in the
choruses. Phenomenal!
Is there a portable way to contain that noise if I ever wanted to record
anything important in there?
