This is for the a/v experts here. I have a weird requirement - I need to record the engine sounds of 6-7 different motorcycles under static (Neutral) and in movement.
Equipment:
I will be using a regular Android device with a good recording app which can record raw 16-bit PCM WAV files at 48000hz. The app also features + and - Gain Control to keep recording sound levels under control.
The static part has been a piece of cake so far, but the situation gets a bit tricky on the move. I need to get the engine notes in the clearest possible manner. I ahve tried the following methods without satisfying results:
1. Keep Phone inside jacket/pant pockets : Not sure how, captures lot of wind noise.
2. Wrap phone in plastic and keep in pockets : Very muffled sound, sound unsuitable.
3. Keep phone inside saddlebags : Too much resonance and reverbation, sound unsuitable.
Anyone with good audio experience, can I have some pointers here please?
