I'm not an entomologist. I know very little about crickets, But they aren't the reason for this post. Neither is Radar.
The reason is to establish what a cricket sounds like. Then whatever isn't a cricket can remain unidentified.
I definitely have that backwards.
The goal is to:
- Make a list of cricket-like recordings.
- Identify the recordings that ARE crickets.
- Remove those cricket recordings from the list.
- Identify the recordings that are left.
Sounds simple, right?
Nope.
If it was there wouldn't be so many versions of what the Cuban diplomats heard at their embassy.
[SPOILER: 2 of the recordings were made with a bone conduction microphone. The rest were recorded with a Sony voice recorder microphone.]
Anyone want to identify which 2 recordings were the following?
- Not recorded using a normal voice microphone (because they weren't audible)
- Have precise repeating elements (so indicate an artificial source)
- Might be related to Power Lines.
The answer won't surprise you.
At least it shouldn't.
