Notes on the recordings
An AKG C391B microphone was suspended above the bells and fed an Apogee analogue to digital converter. The judges listened to this feed, which was simultaneously recorded & relayed to the Nave, on a Rogers dB101 monitor speaker. These recordings of the feed give a good impression of the bands' performances.
