# Find Interesting Sounds
The first step is to find interesting sounds. The closer you are to a source, the more of that sound you'll get in relation to the background noise.
If you have a windscreen or a pop filter, or a specific mic in mind, you can isolate the sound sources better.
# Importing Audio Files to Computer
Either conenct the field recorder to the computer via USB C or take out the microSD card and place it into the SD Card reader adapter and plug it into the Mac Studio.
Copy the files to a logical place on the computer. Return the SD card back to the field recorder.
