@prettypickle123 Yes, they are. Mushroom Rock juts out into Himalaya Bay, and the short tunnel through the rock is just above sea level. In the bottom of the tunnel is a narrow, natural trough, and the surge between the two sides of the bay will rush through. This is part of the reason I thought this location was perfect for this tune, though the tunnel is only accessible at low tide.
I am curious how you miked this. I really don't know anything about recording music in nature. Was there a small mic on the flute, or was it with the camera?
The microphone is built into the camera (one reason for the less-than-stellar sound quality). Special mikes can be bought for flute, that either clip to the headjoint, or else replace the cork in the headjoint. To date, I haven't had sufficient need to invest in one.
Had I been using a camera with an external mike jack, I would have probably used the directional mike I picked up a while back.
Are those real waves?
