| Description |
This is a recording of a conversation in Nasal between three friends: Ari, Masita, and Marsah. The conversation was recorded in the living room of Masrah's house in Gedung Menung. Audio was recorded using two audio recorders: a 4-channel Tascam DR-701D and a 2-channel Tascam DR-100. Masrah is wearing an AKG C520 headset microphone and is recorded in Mono through one channel of the DR-701D. Masita and Ari are wearing Shure SM35 headset microphones; Ari's headset audio is recorded through the DR-100, and Masita's is recorded through one channel of the DR-701D. In addition to the headset microphones a stereo microphone was placed on the floor among the speakers and recorded to the Tascam DR-701D. Audio was recorded in wav format at 128kHz, 32 bit. Video was recorded in two ways. The first was a Canon XA30, which has an external audio input, set up on a tripod. Camera audio was recorded using a R√∏de NTG2 shotgun microphone connected through the camera's external audio input. Video was recorded in AVCHD format at 30fps with 1920 x 1080 resolution. Additionally a Vuze+ 3D camera was used to record 360 degree and 3D video in MP4 format at 30fps.
Informed consent was recorded at the beginning of the session, and the conversation begins at around the 00:07:00 timestamp when the researchers finish setting up the equipment and leave the room. At around the 00:50:30 timestamp, another woman enters the video to bring coffee to the participants. The women continue conversing until aroun 1:01:25 when the researchers return to collect metadata.The Tascam-DR701D ran out of battery at the 01:18:33 timestamp, and stopped recording audio from the omnidirectional microphone and the headsets of Masita and Masrah. However, as the participants were recording metadata and had already removed their headsets, this does not greatly affect the quality of the recordings from this session. |
