Thank you for this video. Nice to see someone using Sennheiser mics. I use the Sennheiser mics of the (older) modular ME-line, which need phantom power and a power-adapter (K6 or K6P). I love Sennheiser mics because they sound very clear, neutral and are very sensitive. They work perfectly with my Mixpree6 II in any situation. Please keep going to show technical aspects, too. Peace.
What benefit does the headset you use give you while listening to the sounds you record in the field? Also, what kind of headphone do you use when you come home and listen to the recordings at the computer?
@@ReyhanHamdi The MDR-7506's sound quite natural, and that's important. They don't hurt my ears, which is another important factor. I learned to use them while working on film sets, and love how flexible they are to use. In my studio I use MDR-7510's. They are very accurate, and I can hear everything, every little detail, which is crucial when I edit the recordings, or when I do other sound related work. I would not use them on field, as they make my ears tired, and they are not as flexible.
@@ReyhanHamdi Yes, it's on my to-do list! Few big points: When selling, try to think what your customers would like to do with your sounds. That way you know how much to process sounds etc. Metadata is a must, I use BWF Metaedit. Check UCS metadata system. wav-files, 24bit, 48kHz or 96kHz are the standard. Explore what kind of cover art others make, and create your own style with any Photoshop-like software. Sell in your own site, or use platforms like A Soundeffect or Bandcamp.
@@soundstudiopioch6777 Thank you! On a film set I have never used the knots, as they would be awkward when booming etc, but when field recording, I find them really quick and handy. Learned it in a film school and it stuck.
Hi Niklas, thank you very much for this video. It was very informative. I have a question regarding power banks. I have the Sony PCM D100 and would like to use it with a power bank. Which power bank would you recommend that fits the Sony PCM D100? Good that I discovered your channel :-) I immediately left a like + subscription
With D100 I have only used IKEA's LADDA 2450 batteries, but I have read that you could use for example a ripcord cable with a power bank. Here's discussion with details, the comment I refer to is by user Commongrounder: www.reddit.com/r/fieldrecording/comments/10zqido/any_advice_on_sony_d100_nizn_batteries_combo/ He uses this cable: myvolts.com/product/39016/Ripcord_6V_c+ve I believe many power banks would work with that, personally I would try Sandstrøm 20100 mAh power bank as I mainly use those.
what is your take on binaural audio recording. also what are you doing with all those recordings? I used to use iOS app called Ambience which is unfortunatelly discontinued with unique looping option and library where you can upload your own recordings. There is now so many apps for sounds but I did not find anything close to Ambience app. Closest to my liking is myNoise. Subbed, great content.
@@mike_qbik I haven't done binaural yet, but what I have listened, it sounds great if you want the feeling that you are in the same space where the audio was captured. Most of my recordings are intended for movies, games, etc., so I sell them online (you can check frostwaveaudio.com, there is even a free sound pack). Still, a lot of recordings are just waiting in folders, waiting for a meaning of life 😎
@@Obi-Juan_Kenobi It's great system for harsh field recording conditions when you want to be fast and flexible. Not so suitable for film sets, there the normal way is better because of booming.
I love how you explain your process and recording sounds in general. Thank you for Taking the time to explain details, and the cable trick as well!

Great information. I wish somebody told me this stuff years ago.
Thanks

@@niklaseuren Is it ok to use mdr 7506 on computer? mdr 7510 is not a headset currently on sale
@@ReyhanHamdi They should work fine. Used them in studio before.
@@niklaseuren Thank you very much for the information you provided. Are you planning to make a video about selling the audio you record?

Thank you for this video it is really helpful!
Very cool video! The only thing not so cool was the cable knots.

@@niklaseuren thx man, that was really helpful 🙏
07:19 I mean, I didn't expect those skiing skills! Great video. ⛸
Sometimes you got to do crazy stuff to get those sounds! Thank you!
thanks !!

F for the cables management
