GENERAL INFO ABOUT SOUND RECORDINGS/ANALYSIS
Nice overview of nature audio recordings
There is actually a field of study called ENVIROSONICS.
Faculty that is doing research into this area.
LINKS related to envirosonics and bioacoustics
There is even a journal dedicated to BIOACOUSTICS, go figure…
In this issue of the journal there is a review of portable audio recorders, but we would have to inter-library or order the article, I’m sure.
We might want to try to get the conference proceedings from this conference on remote audio recordings.

WILDLIFE SOUND RECORING SOCIETY, again, go figure.
Another society
A library dedicated to animal recordings from Cornell University
**Let’s look into any Bioacoustic or Envirosonic or whatever research going on at LSU or in Louisiana. Could be in an ecology or biology or Wildlife department. Make sure to search UNO, ULL, Tulane, etc.

Some strange Audio research from the Media Lab

HARDWARE
A series of schematic drawings about audio transfer
Remote audio recording
a non-streaming remote recording device for research

Nice page of HARDWARE links.

X10 wikipedia

SOFTWARE
audio software and more audio software
Some software for audio analysis
software for audio analysis with an interesting output graphic
