Sonic Wash II - Recording

The purpose of re-visiting this experiment is to obtain a more detailed recording using additional mics including one located outside.

I'm using the same model and settings as in the first experiment so I may draw comparison at a later date, however unsurprisingly the contents of the drum are different:


Machine:
Model: Hotpoint WD73
Max Spin speed: 1200RPM

Wash:
Programme C: 40 degree wash
Contents of drum: 1 pair of jeans, 4 T-shirts, 11 pairs of socks, 10 pairs of shorts, 2 soap tablets, 1 tablet net.
Duration: Approx 75 mins

Mics & Locations:
1 x Rode NT4 - Channel 1 & 2 (L/R) - Room Mic
1 x Samson Q-Kick - Channel 3 - Drum Mic
1 x Stagg MC07 - Channel 4 - Dispenser Mic
1 x Plate Mic - Channel 5 - Floor Mic (Underneath)
1 x C-Ducer Contact Mic - Channel 6 - Top of machine
1 x AKG C100S - Channel 7 - Pipe Mic (Outside)

The Recording:
As before each mic is recorded to a separate track, only now I'm using more mics and an 8-track recorder. This should give me my most definitive sampled object to date.
