Recordist's notes

Waiting for a flight at a gate in the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. You can hear all the typical airport sounds: lots of people walking back and forth, rolling suitcases, and various PA announcements from the surrounding gates. This audio was captured with a special application that allows the user to disable all noise reduction and processing on the stock microphones of various android devices. The device used to capture the audio was a Moto G7 Play, and the resulting audio is surprisingly clear and lifelike. EQ was done in post to reduce some treble frequencies.
