This workshop will be held at the Sierra Nevada Field Campus of San Francisco State University, beside the scenic north fork of the Yuba River. Participants will learn recording techniques hands-on in the field, visiting Sierra Nevada Mountains soundscapes in marsh, meadow, and forest.
The workshop will start earlier than previous years, at 1:00 PM Friday afternoon, and conclude at 1:00 PM Sunday.
There will be intensive one-on-one instruction with a variety of equipment and field techniques as well as lectures, and the opportunity to meet people with backgrounds in a variety of different professions.
The event will offer informative lectures and field trips by experienced sound recordists including:
• Microphone Array Comparison
• Build your own windscreen
• Adopt-a-Park round table discussion
Audio Engineers Dan Dugan, Mark Lipman, Steve Sergeant, and Greg Weddig, who have "adopted" national and local parks, will discuss how cooperating with park research programs provides opportunities to make recordings with both scientific and artistic value.
The cost for the Workshop is $495.00 which includes platform tent lodging, all meals, and a year's membership. Recording equipment will be provided for those without.

The Nature Sounds Society is a world-wide organization whose principal purpose is to encourage the preservation, appreciation and creative use of natural sounds. The Society promotes education in the technological, scientific and aesthetic aspects of nature sounds through its programs and a diverse network of contacts. People concerned with natural sound and natural quiet include biologists, museum professionals, park rangers, birders, conservationists, sound designers, musicians, artists, radio producers
and many more. The Society organizes events throughout the year. In January, a Post Production Workshop where we teach how to edit recorded sound to produce CDs, podcasts, or downloads. In early May, a Tech Talk about recording equipment. In June, our annual Field Recording Workshop at San Francisco State University's field campus at Yuba Pass. In December, a listening party. The Society presents California Soundscapes, a lecture-demonstration with surround sound that is presented at birding fairs and in lecture series throughout the greater Bay Area.
