Soundsitting as an alternative to soundwalking offers a number of additional benefits to the traditional soundwalk, including inclusivity for visually impaired and those unable to walk. Soundsitting is a way of obtaining deep immersive listening in a single soundscape context, rather than transitioning through differing contexts on a walk. Both methods are complimentary.

In this video I look at how you can use the surround panner plugin matrix in Reaper to blend between different effects on different channels. This is a really useful sound design technique and also can be used compositionally to create ever evolving soundscapes.

Train journey from Crewe to London Euston // Soundscape Recording

Soundscape recording of parts of a journey from inside a Virgin Pendolino train, travelling from Crewe to London Euston. The soft low rumble of a train over the tracks, the gentle sounds of the trains air conditioning, the sounds of quiet conversation.

London Binaural Soundscape // Tottenham Court Road to Charing Cross Road soundwalk

This recording was made on the 3rd April 2008 as I undertook a soundwalk from Tottenham Court Road underground station, along Charing Cross Road (via Denmark Street). This is a part of London which 13 years later is VERY different, many of the landmark buildings have gone to make way for Crossrail and the new TCR station.
