A beginner's guide to field recording. Part 2. 

I'm getting more into field recording. So I'm very happy to learn from you.Oliver! Thanks!

thanks for your work

Great video! Thanks!

It would be helpful to have a link to Part 1 in your description below. A very minor point, not a criticism. I am off to find part 1.

Good stuff. I wish you could have put some links for the different mics.

What if you hook up a contact mic up to a wind filter? Will it pick up only the wind (and thus be better for wind instruments)?

hey oliver. nice video. can you please post a link to the geophone?

Hi! It's really helpful info that i'm looking for. Where can I buy the Parabolic dish (the same as you've got)? Thanks for sharing !

Nice overview! But I would highly advise against using audio cassettes for serious recording. You lose the entire upper frequency range and a little bit on the lower end too. The signal to noise ratio is also not great. Every cheap Zoom or Tascam recorder will get you better audio.

Really well explained & easily digestible, thanks for making this Oliver! 😃

Excellent, quiet, serious and useful in breaking down the basics for beginners like myself (having already spent money of microphones that were completely wrong for what I wanted to record). Watching parts 2 and 3 later. Thank you so much Oliver for making these great 'starter' videos. You're so right about just having your recorder with you and when I bought a second hand Zoom H1n, I now carry is with me all the time because it's so small, whip it out and just record all sorts now, even around the supermarket in my trolley! You've given lots of inspiration to really understand techniques and equipment without making expensive mistakes! Thanks, take care, Tony 🙂

thank you so much, it was important and useful information.

Really nice introduction, cheers ✌️

Hnnng R-05 so nice. Wish they kept making it. I had to get the R-07 and I like it but it’s just no comparison.
