Hi Richard,
Glad you enjoyed the recording. I used a pair of DPA 4060s spaced 40cm apart (mounted on a coat hanger and tripod - very Blue Peter!). I applied a subtle high pass filter to the recording as there was some motorway leakage but thankfully not that much. I'll be using the completely unadulterated version in a podcast soon so watch this space! Annie
No, I splashed out a few months ago and bought some dpas. The best buy I've ever made!
