bluround® is an innovative thorough
and comfortable multichannel microphone technique,
After few years spent in researches and tests,
in 2006 Emanuele Costantini comes out with the definitve version,
developed to accomplish the client's requests,
mainly directors, to catch with the best quality
and no time wasted setting up mics, the natural environment sound.
The technique itself don't need processors or external electronic devices
during the take, but experience, skills and a good mic placement
keeping the engineer light and easy
as much as the basic equipment needed to get a good recording.
During the post-production step, the editor
and/or the mixing engineer have some chance to retouch and improve
the take.

Seawaves
The recording catches a very difficult environment, with strong wind
about 60Km/h and impervious sea with very long unpredictable waves.
The distance from the wave breaking is not ideal, but was the closest I could stay
to have a safety margin not to get swept away.
