It seems most of these 'how-to's' are about using specific types of software, and I for one would like to see a few more collections of users saying how to actually find people having sex in the first place.
While so much of catching sex sounds is down to luck, risks are taken to get captures, and any activity can have its trends identified, its odds improved. I just get the sense that - in an albeit luck-heavy persuit - there might be experienced hobbyists who have found certain places/times to work more than others. Thus yielding more and more varied captures.
I'm relatively new to this, but Ive had a couple close runins, many many hours 'on the beat', and more than a few captures. Of varying types. And while lessons are learned, efficiency could be greatly improved I'm sure, i.e. the ratio between time spent/effort expended/risk taken, to sexsounds found.
I'm not talking about Hotels etc., more in one walking outside, and knowing where to go.
The few lessons i've learned may seem benign, but they make me more and more likely to find ppl having sex just feet away from where I'm standing.
All this depends on which category the capture / target type falls into - i.e. Outdoor day, Outdoor Night (esp. Drunk Hookups outside bars/clubs), Indoor Drunk Hookups (toilet cubicles etc), Residential area (window surfing), Residential Static (neighbors, overheard from your residence), Self-recordings, and Flatmates.
I know there may be other types, but the point is, each has rules of thumb for getting more success, and sharing our experience seems like a good investment in the long run. Give a man a fish, versus Teach a man to fish, is basically what I'm getting at here.
As eloquently and beautifully written as this post is... what I and others like me are looking for, is very unpretentious, direct, straight-to-the-point instructions, tips, and rules of thumb. Instructions, tips and rules of thumb that have nothing to do with technology, and everything to do with being in the right place st the right time.
My interest in particular is:
Outdoor Night (Drunk Hookups i.e. backstreet sex)
Indoor Night (toilet cubicles etc)
Window surfing (Residential, night)
I have a number of captures of various types and qualities, and the only thing keeping me from posting them here, is the wish to benefit from the 'pros' wisdom in return. I dunno if you've seen the old spy movie Kim, about a kid who is taught spycraft from a master spy, but something like that :p Specific observational stuff in it's raw jaded form. Any hints, however bizarre or benign, would be welcomed and may help get more captures.
Ok thats enough reading! Thanks if you made it this far
