Features of Sound Recording in Open Space

The purpose of the research is to analyze the features of sound recording in open space from a technological point of view. To do this, the following tasks should be performed: establish the role of open space when it performs the function of the dominant environment during speech or sound recording; prove the importance of obtaining intelligible speech from the microphone when recording sound in an open space, taking into account the influence of extraneous sounds. Research methodology. The following methods have been applied: analytical for the study of the scientific basis for the considered issues; theoretical for generalizations of theoretical provisions and practical observations and generalization of the obtained theoretical base and practical results, structural and functional for highlighting the components of successful sound recording in open space conditions and determining their functions in the process. Scientific novelty. For the first time, information on the use of specialized equipment that will help to hide the shortcomings of sound is summarized. The importance of further sound processing by technical devices is also highlighted. The article outlines the specifics of open space in the context of sound recording; the main sources of sound in open space are identified and the features of working with them are analyzed. Conclusions. The article has analyzed the peculiarities of sound recording in open space and has established the role of specific factors that can affect the work in terms of the peculiarities of the sound engineer’s work. The role of using special microphones to hide flaws is established by analyzing the literature. The factors affecting the sound recording quality in open spaces have been generalized.
