FX Recording session of Burts Indian V Twin Scout
A timed speed trial was organised at Edendale (half an hours drive from Invercargill)
by the Southland Motorcycle Club and we totally lucked in with a windless day!
The bike was running well & was clocked on its fastest run doing doing 109mph.

You have to experience the physicality of the sound of this bik to fully appreciate it
It is so LOUD that you can feel the physical impacts as each cylinder fires!

We had a total of four record kits rolling for the entire session:
1. onboard DAT machine in a backpack which the rider Wayne Alexander wore,
fed by two dynamic mics, one near the exhaust, the other for close up engine sounds.
2. Hard disk recorder Fostex FR2 (24bit/48k) fed with a Sanken CS5 stereo shotgun mic
recording the starts, revs and away followed by up and stops at end of each run.
3. At the mid point of the run we had two DAT machines: one was getting close passbys
and was fed from a Sanken CS5 stereo shotgun mic, following the pass as it went by.
The other DAT machine was fed by two fixed position Sennheiser 816 mics which
were setup so that one recorded solely the approach and the other the away.
