@dynamicfreqz1112 2 года назад

I'm just starting to get into field recording, and ambient music. I was thinking the other day, while recording birds, that ambient sounds are like an organic modular synth, that's completely unpredictable. It's crazy how different you hear your surroundings, once you start listening for interesting sounds. It gets a bit frustrating at times, due to hearing something cool, but there's sounds that you don't want in the recording. I can also relate to learning discipline while recording. It can get out of hand quickly. I've been getting some awesome sounding birds. Some birds that I've recorded sound as good as a high end synth. I don't know many bird species by their sound, so I'm not sure what kind of birds they are unless I see them. At least one of the species that I've recorded, makes a bunch of different sounds back to back, and it's a really great sound.

@GiancarloBiondi 3 года назад

Hi Marcel! I really appreciate your professional approach. Especially when you are just starting out, it is easy to get caught up in the plethora of sounds we encounter: but then we have a large amount of sounds to catalog (even for personal use only as I do) and the desire passes away. At the base of a professional approach, for taking photos, videos and recording audio, there is always a preliminary research, planning and scouting: it is excellent for this purpose to bring a light recorder like the Zoom H1n useful for "taking notes" or recording in the case we find a unique and unrepeatable event. Thanks for the advice as always

@FreeToUseSounds 3 года назад

Hi Giancarlo. If you're starting out and doing it that way you don't have to reedit and rename all you files in the past. With thee UCS and the categories its just great. I for myself have so much work ahead. :)

@GiancarloBiondi 3 года назад

In the last couple of weeks, I was searching for a decent field recorder (I picked Zoom H5 with XYH-6 capsule). I have to say that I clicked randomly on this video, started watching and, at 2:14, a familiar blue tram popped out. What's interesting, I live just a few hundred meters away from this exact scene location. Greetings from Zagreb, I hope you like it.

@FreeToUseSounds 3 года назад

Oh wow! Yes we loved living in Zagreb. Maybe someday we go back. We spent 3 months in Croatia and it was amazing.

@Steveohugs 3 года назад

Great video and thank you both for all your work in putting them together. I've just bought a Zoom H5 for some field recording and I was wondering about wind protection. I noticed the protection you have on the H8 works well for you . Would love to know where you got it. I think it could really be good for my H5

@FreeToUseSounds 3 года назад

Hi Stephen! So glad you like the video. I use the WS01 from Zoom but the Rycote version is much stronger against wind.

Hey thank you for your amazing content!! I bought the Zoom H2n with accessories and I was wondering if I should use the pop filter when field recording or not? Thanks! :D

also, should I use the built-in compressor or the limtor or shouldn't use whatsoever? (sorry for all those questions...!) Thanks in advance!!

Hi, there is no need to use the filter or compressor. :)

Hey Marcel I bought your all in one library due to watching your videos! I've got to ask though, how do you guys afford to not only travel to all these locations but actually have a prior exploratory visit to them when your entire library (including all future updates!) can be had for such an insanely low amount of money? I saw your youtube video where you break down how much you make from this channel and (thank you for doing that btw I love the transparency!) it doesn't seem like it's enough to finance all the trips for two people. Would love to see a total financial streams video from you guys someday if that makes more sense!

@FreeToUseSounds Год назад

Thank you so much for your support and you’re right. With only YT revenue we would be back home already. It’s because of people like you who support us by purchasing our sound libraries ever single day.

@sabbathgita5511 3 года назад

You find the authorities and ask as long as you are on private property.

I would really love to purchase your sound pack, But I don't have the download speed to download all of them at once. Is there a way I can download single audio clips at a time? Thanks!!

Hi Ben! Oh no worry you have always access to all recordings and don't need to download all recordings in one go. So take your time :)

@benreed2166 3 года назад

@@FreeToUseSounds Is this after purchasing via your website or do I need a band camp account. Thanks! Also do you have a video on recording quiet sounds? I'm just trying to record birds chirping on my zoom h5 but it's way too quiet and too noisy.

@FreeToUseSounds 3 года назад

@@benreed2166 Hi Ben, that is for both but Bandcamp is more theme related and you can find the libraries and sounds much faster. I don't have videos of quiet sounds. I don't record stock video footage.
