Making your recording

Click “Advanced”

Apply these settings:

2. Charge and prepare your device!

Make sure your phone has enough battery and notifications are turned off.

You don't want the phone dinging or vibrating during your recording! 

You can turn on 'flight mode' to turn off all bluetooth, wifi and network connections- but remember to turn them back on when you have finished!

3. Record!

Press the red button to start your recording.​

Experiment with how close to hold the microphone- about 3 to 6 inches away from the mouth of the person speaking usually works in most environments.

When you have finished, press the blue and white square Stop button to end recording. 

Now you can turn flight mode off.

together through sound

invites the local community to help paint a picture of lock down by recording its experiences through sound.

We can’t bring the community together in person at the moment so this project aims to create a platform to share a collective community voice! Using a collection of sound recordings we will celebrate the history, heritage and culture of the area and it’s natural environment.
