First to state: the capture is not really good. And the file was about one and a half hours long. I had to cut the relative parts all together. Took me some time but at least it came to something showable.
I haven't worked on the file instead of all the cuts. The background noise is terrible and the direction of the device (smartphone) was not really good, too, as even as the whole device itself is not meant for such a purpose...
To the show itself: as mentioned above the file is ~90 mins long, and the most of the time the device didnt captured what I could (silently) hear while sitting next to my opened window.
There were pauses of 5 to 10 min between but lots of silent sounds I was able to hear are not hearable on the capture.
However, hope you enjoy it anyway.

Re: Neighbors by the Window
And here is another one, but it is yet even more worse than the first one.
This file was also about 90 min long and I cutted it so the relevant parts are hearable (findable..
)
The same as above, there were pauses, this time even bigger pauses. But a whole of the sounds I heard at the window live weren't captured.
Here I tried some other settings in my recording App, for example a whole stupid "stereo" setting with just a mono mic...and some other things. For example the background noise got bigger, or "wider", and the filesize got bigger, too...
Anyway, as above I hope you can now enjoy it too

It's tough when your ears can pick up some really fun action in the distance, but the recording device can't. Thanks for the great effort.

Re: Neighbors by the Window
Yes, you're totally right with this point.
I didn't worked on these file instead of cutting them from their roundabout 90 mins each (with pauses). If you want you could try to get at least the first simply louder, works great for me. The second may be a little bit tricky.
I was not able to get the sounds clearer because the mic of the device was not set to an accurate direction (was not possible). The device itself is an old smartphone in a really good protecting fullcase providing a little whole for the mic, so it decreases its abilities for this purpose on.
Because I was not able to get the sounds clearer I even didn't made them louder for not making it harder for anyone else maybe would like, and got the ability to do it in a more accurate way than me. The second file is louder, at least its noise is... I guess this must be because I played with the Options of the App the other Day and put it (foolishly...) on "stereo" while having just one mono-mic in the device and increased the sample rate to 44.1 KHz... *g*
The distance itself should not have been that far...I guess it was in the same Building. Sounds were good and clear to hear by normally angled Windows while Music was on in my Room. And yet even much more better hearable by one fully opened window without any Music.
