Hello, I'm writing a paper on sound recording for a sociology research project and I'd like your help with a terminology question. I need to know the English term you use to describe the different takes of the same sound made from different points in space. For example, a person is sitting in a room in which I've placed several recorders, operating simultaneously, at different distances from the person (some further away, others closer). What do I call these different recordings in English, from different points in space? "Sound takes"? "Sound captures"? Thank you for your help

Thank you Chris, this is very very useful. So you say "sound samples"? ( instead of "sound takes" or "sound captures")
There is a few different ways to word it. I cant think of an industry standard that im aware of. Although there very well may be one. I would use something like multi-location reference recordings.
