⚓️Decibel Record SHATTERED by Ship James R. Barker as it departs Duluth, MN
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- I have been documenting numerous vessels arriving/departing Duluth using a decibel meter to determine which ship has the loudest horn/whistle on Lake Superior. There has been speculation for years that the 1004 foot ship James R. Barker has the loudest horn/whistle on the Great Lakes, and that theory is now confirmed!
This video shows the James R. Barker breaking the decibel record with a whopping 123.1 decibel reading as it passes under the Aerial Lift Bridge heading onto Lake Superior. There is NO DOUBT now that this ship has the most powerful and loudest whistle/horn out there! By the way, if the new decibel record wasn't cool enough, it was done with a master salute! I was very excited after seeing/hearing the pervious decibel record was shattered!

You gotta love when a Captain puts his weight behind a whistle, hearing protection required with the James R Barker.
By the sound of that whistle, it sounds like five crew members had their weight on it as well! The JRB is so impressive!👍👊⛴️
Floor Jansen might be impressed.
Hey Mike , great vid. Do you know how deep the channel is beneath the lift bridge buddy ?
Thanks

@richf6111 absolutely Rich, here’s the information below. After you read that, go to the video I just posted five minutes ago and see a powerful storm on Lake superior. How deep/wide/long ship canal:
Its length is 0.33 miles (0.53 k). The canal is maintained at 245 feet (75 m) wide. Depth: 28 to 32 feet in the entrance; 27 feet deep in the iron-ore route channels, and 20 to 23 feet in the inner channels. Here’s a little more information about dredging the canal. It’s a few years old, but the article still is relevant. www.lre.usace.army.mil/Media/News-Releases/Article/2289075/wisconsin-company-to-dredge-duluth-superior-harbor/ (www.lre.usace.army.mil/Media/News-Releases/Article/2289075/wisconsin-company-to-dredge-duluth-superior-harbor/)
It’s so great that the JRB’s captain plays to the crowd with the ‘Barker Bark’. And you’re right. Interlake seems like a great company.
It’s an excellent company! Whoever installed those horns/whistles, we need to get them a gold medal now!🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇
I root for all the American companies but the Duluth-based Great Lakes Fleet is just a piece of the Canadian National system and the American Steamship Company is a subsidiary of the Rand Corporation. Interlake, as you know, is a privately held company that is wholly vested in the shipping company with no other interests and is a pillar of the industry.
I agree with everything you said. I’m still learning about these companies. It’s very fascinating. ⛴️👍👊
@@bigmonmagoomba9634 I sure wish Oglebay Norton and Bradley Transportation were still around. Former great American companies.
I don’t know too much about those companies. I’m going to research them. For others interested. Here are the links to get you started.
Oglebay: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oglebay_Norton_Corporation
Bradley: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradley_Transportation_Company
Wow, she REALLY let the horn bark there. Longest holds I have ever heard on any youtube channel. THAT was astounding
I would love to know how the whistles on those vessels!
Patrick’s music, you and I will have to get up on that ship someday, go in the pilothouse, I’m pushing the horn button!!!😂👊
👍
@@vibewithmike That would be an achievement for sure!
👍
Wow, that is easily the loooongest and loudest master salute I’ve heard. Really deep bass to it.
More excellent footage and commentary, thank you sir!
I do remember this, it was really impressive. Anytime this ship arrives, It’s impressive.
Captian Newland is pretty well known for his salutes. No one does it better than him.
One of the best captains out there
According to the booklet Your Know Ships (2022 edition), Captain Newland learned it from the previous captain who trained him. Glad the tradition was continued as it's a great sounding horn!
At 7:30 and forward that was the most bizarre sound the way the acoustics changed as the vessel moved. I’ve seen the barker in person but never noticed that phase shift phenomenon before. Sweet video Mike you’re the man!
What a great comment. That was truly bizarre!
My ears were ringing so I didn’t notice Robert!🫨🫨🫨👂👂👂😂😂😂
I agree, and I was there
The audio anomalies are not a result of movement or Dopplering, the ship's horns are overloading his microphone.
I’m using a special microphone to do these videos. When I started doing the videos you could barely hear me because of wind. This microphone is specifically designed to cut the wind out completely. The downside, the volume is not as loud and there is some sound canceling scenarios as well. However, trust me, if I had a standard microphone, you would never be able to hear me with all the wind here in Duluth. I hope this all makes sense. Thanks for the comment. All the best my friend!👍⛴️👊
Horn installer asked the Captain "How loud do you want these horns to be?". The Captain said "Yes".
📣📣📣📣📣📣😂😂😂😂😂
That’s about right
I love ❤️ the sound of that ship 🚢, never heard it like that before. Love when the bridge operator responds, awesome 👌🏾 👏🏾 👍🏾 😍.
Jason, I really appreciate you dropping a comment. It means a lot my friend. Have fun watching these ships. I hope you come back to my channel and watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun. No agenda, just chilling out with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
We were in Duluth over the 4th of July last year, had beautiful weather, rode bikes for 2 days, absolutely had the whole place to ourselves, could not believe how little amount of people (tourist) were there, did not have to wait for any table, the restaurants were all very good.
Nothing beats that horn.
Terry, we have to check with NASA to determine if they heard it in outer space. It’s the real deal man. All the best. I hope you’re having a great Tuesday.
That was awesome! & worthy of a master salute 🥰🤗🔊🎶
Hey DMC!👋👋👋👋
Thanks for the comment my friend. I wish you an awesome Wednesday! I’ll be out there with the next ship.
Are are definitely top of the RUclipsrs that I love watching. Your attitude is amazing and your videos.... Well totally outstanding. Thank you
Wow! Van! What an awesome comment. You really made my night. When I’m out there having fun with the ships I really don’t think about it. I’m just having fun. My whole reason for being anonymous is so I can just be myself and not be judged, and just have fun. That’s all I’m doing. I really appreciate you watching my videos. All the best to you!
Great job catching the Barker Bark, Mike! Somehow I am not surprised! LOL! Also glad to see you getting some good weather! Enjoy it!
Donna, honestly, I thought the whistle/horn would be close to the other ones. Nope! This ship is the real deal. The loudest.
What a beautiful to hear a beautiful lady with a loud bark. Just one question Mike, when you tell us where the ships are heading could you let us know how long it take to get there. Thanks again U R the best.
Yes, I will try, I’m still trying to figure out how long it takes myself. Happy Tuesday Scott!
@@vibewithmike Thank you Sir for responding.
Thank you for watching and always commenting. It’s really fun. I appreciate you Scott! Thanks man.
Approximate times....
Two days across Superior to the Soo locks.
24 hours from there to Port Huron.
About another 11-12 to Toledo.
Two days and change from the locks to Chicago or Gary.
Times are approximate, and depend on actual course and speed.
Course/speed typically most impacted by weather
TK!!!!! This is absolutely fantastic information! I always thought it was 24 hours from Duluth to Soo Locks! I’ve been wrong. Thanks again for letting this out for everybody. This is so awesome.
Love the "barkers bark" great ship,great video again as usual.
Thanks B&M! Happy Tuesday. My ears are still recovering!😂😂👂👂👍👍⛴️⛴️
I just added visiting Duluth to see a Great Lakes freighter to my bucket list.
Keggycat! That’s so wonderful to hear. You will not be disappointed. Duluth has the ships, but there are so many other fun things in the city. Make sure you visit Duluth during summer months to increase the chances of good weather for you. All the best to you my friend!⛴️⛴️⛴️
I love the Barker bark !
Mary, I think I have to go see an ear doctor now! 👂👂👂👂
What an awesome ship and very impressive horn. The captain really laid on it. This was a fun video!
Thanks!! 😎👍
Thank you so much Art! I hope you and your wife had a wonderful Tuesday. All the best brother!👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️
So cool that you catch the big ships coming through the canal on their way out to sea ! Thanks for the video's !
Cliff, thank you for watching. I hope you had a great Tuesday. And an even better Wednesday! Take care of my friend.
I appreciate your videos so much! This was amazing to hear and like you said, you could feel it. I can't imagine how it sounded in person.
Just the Facts! Hey, what a nice thing to say. I hope you’re having a great Tuesday night. I’m just having fun out here with the ships. All the best to you my friend.⛴️👍👊
@@vibewithmike Hey Mike... On some ships when they have a super structure in the front and rear of the ships, are they steering from the front super structure at times or always in the rear?
Hey friend! Great question. I found a video that is only a few minutes long that explains it pretty well. I hope this helps and I hope you come back and check out some more ships with me. ruclips.net/video/dqRBgJgvMx8/видео.html
I bet there's some Sea Gulls that are hearing impaired after that !! LOL !!!,,,,,SO COOL !!!! Thanks for sharing !!!!
😂😂😂😂😂
🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨
👂👂👂👂👂
WOW !!!! I heard that salute here in Arizona !!! Good job !!!
The JRB just wanted to make sure you were paying attention down there in Arizona Tom!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂👊👍
Oh man, this was great! I had bone conducting headphones and and my brain rattled with that fantastic horn!
Alexzander, it literally shook me. It was crazy loud and legit vibrating.
Your channel makes me nostalgic! I grew up watch freighters go up and down the St. Clair river at Marine City. Most people do not realize there is strict great lakes traffic control for these and ocean going ships. There is a published schedule, so you can look up when “a big one” is for example entering the St Clair river. With a river current of as much as 5 or 6 mph, and as narrow and shallow as is the channel (requiring speed for steerage) there is no room for a traffic jam or back up.
Peter, what a fantastic and informational comment! I did some research and found the schedule you are talking about. Boat friends, check it out here. ais.boatnerd.com/passage/port/st_clair
This vessel has the best sounding whistle on earth.
I couldn’t agree more
On the lakes, yes, but the QM2 would give her a run for her money!
I can't help smiling every time I hear that whistle. And I live nowhere near navigable water.
That whistle was AMAZING!!! best whistle ever!
Michelle, it literally shook my body
My favorite ship, love that 2 stage horn
I agree with you Allen the 2 stage horns are great.
WOW that’s LOUD! Great job.
Thanks Tony! All the best brother
The jrb sure made some beutiful music! And the videos are awesome! No matter the weather. Thank you.
Thanks Jack! I appreciate you watching brother!
Wow, very awesome! That just never gets old!! Thanks for the great narration
Yo, what’s up Johnny! How’s it going brother? Thanks for watching. Happy Tuesday.
@@vibewithmike doing great Mike. I have a different picture of the Kenny Brightbill #57 up now
Looks great! When spring starts hitting here in Minnesota, Racing is in the air
Wow... She has got quite the voice! A different salute to be sure... I don't think a camera does it justice. Have a great day Mike! 🚢🛳️
I’ll bet you heard it there in South Africa, Johan! 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦👊👊👊⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️
Hahaha a little louder and we might just be able to! 😉
😂👍
I'm going to play this back when the wife is out of the house so I can crank up my Bose speakers and shake the walls. The wife gets real upset when too much noise comes from my den. The JRB sounded like something from "War of the Worlds".
Jerry! Nice hearing from you! I’m going to crank it up again too! ⛴️👍
That's a hard act to follow, that captain loves that whistle!!!!!!
I hope you subscribe and come back to my channel to watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun. No agenda, just chilling out with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
How did I miss this video and the decibel record. Love it. Thanks for showing us around the pier.
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow😮!!! Like Gabriels Trumpet.
JRB another great lady of the lakes.
Did I hear you say 72°? Awesome,welcome to spring.
Have a great day,take care and God Bless ya Mike!!!😊
Thanks for another epic video!
Thanks Scott! For anybody that doesn’t know what Gabriele’s trumpet is here you go. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabriel%27s_horn
I must be color blind as I thought I saw green grass as Mike panned over toward the Park Point beach.
As long as you didn’t see white (snow), any color will do!
I love Barkers horn. I could listen to it all day long.
Diana, did you see this video from last night with the sunset? ⚓️Behold Duluth’s Titan: Night Arrival of Mega 1000-foot Ship! - LIVE

Captain Newland doesn't disappoint on the "Barker Bark"
Yo Brian! We should make a shrine for Captain Newland! Obviously with a horn in the middle! I hope all is well brother.
Can not like this enough!!! Be up in that area next week. Hoping to catch a couple of ships I have not seen before.
Al! Awesome to hear that you’ll be coming up to Duluth. I hope the weather is fantastic for your brother. I hope you come come back to my channel and watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun. No agenda, just chilling out with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
We are going to be there next week also!
Awesome!
Oh, ive also been waiting for this day from you LOL I’ve become obsessed with hearing the #barkerbark from dozens of RUclips videos and I’m patiently waiting to hear this in person this summer.
Awsome video all the way round 👌. Barker has the big bark. Enjoyed the video Mike and BE SAFE OUT THERE!
The Barker is the leader in the clubhouse! Powerful sound!
My favorite ship
It’s the record holder. It’s such a great looking and sounding ship.
The sound of that ship horn! Beautiful, I love it!
Reminds me of the almost ultrasound music of Tibetan monks chanting and their playing of long horns
I wonder what the Lakes are thinking when they feel A Whole Lotta Barkin' Goin' On!!!!
They feel like their in the dog pound
WOW what a unique horn !!
My head is still spinning Ken
Gives me shivers every time I hear the Barker Bark.
Probably everybody’s favorite whistle. I love it.
It’s crazy on how big this ship is. What’s even crazier is that theirs a ship that 9 feet longer
👍⛴️
Nothing like the JRBs bark, its one of the reasons why its my favorite amongst the grake lake ships.
She may not be the longest, but she sure is the loudest.
Trust me, there is no vessel that will ever run into the JRB in the fog with that horn!
Yo Mike, I thought it took 10 hours for the 1000 footers to self unload, but her horns had a new sound unless its what. NO, it had to have added big stage base speakers with 12000 w of power amplifying the horns.
Hey John! More like 200,000 watts! Here’s the eight hour source. www.trovestar.com/generic/zoom.php?id=165860#:~:text=Barker%20was%20the%20first%201000,cargo%20in%20about%20eight%20hours.
Everyone in Duluth: "James R Barker in town."
Hard for me to disagree with that
@@vibewithmike My only visit to Duluth, the second boat was the Barker. You really need to be there in person to get the full Barker Bark experience.
Thanks for all the perspectives!
William, happy Tuesday. I’m glad that you enjoyed the video my friend. I hope the weather is good there for you.👍⛴️
COLREGS Annex III - being over 200m the RJB's 'whistle' is required to be at least 143 dB at 1m from the whistle, so it can be heard typically 2 nautical miles away. Of course, anyone standing 1m away would be instantly deafened
Under British rules, 4.46 seconds at 123 dB per day is the limit without hearing protection...
Boat friends, g8sqh shared some really cool information! Check it out here! ecolregs.com/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&layout=item&id=120&Itemid=501&lang=en
Most useful to boaters (apart from the various long/short patterns to say what's happening) is that deeper, lower frequency sound signal DOES mean a bigger vessel. It's a rough guide, but without AIS it's better than nothing.
I really like the information that you provided to all of us. Thank you so much.
Sounds like an updated version ❤❤❤❤
Fascinating video, interesting commentary too. I'd be quite happy to take a trip to Duluth for this experience alone!
Thanks so much for watching. 🚢
I moved up just below the Boulevard in Little Italy/Observation Park neighborhood a few years ago. When the leaves are off the trees, I can just see the top of the Bridge from my deck, but can’t really see the boats as they come in, so I took it upon myself to learn the boats by the sound of their whistles. Obviously, the JRB was the easiest. Lolol.
Gone! How cool my friend. I really would like to know, how well can you hear the JRB from there?
@@vibewithmike some days it sounds like the boats are right in my alley, other days, not so much. Same with music from Bayfront.
I wish we could hit reset on this weekend, the weather gets no better for us!
@@vibewithmike indeed. Spent last evening on the deck at Pier B/Silos with friends from the Cities, and it was perfect. All we saw was the Vista Star go under the bridge, though.
I love Silos! Excellent Caesar salad. Also, how can you beat the outdoor furniture and areas to sit? The best!
That was quite the horn. Ship looks like it has seen better days. I wonder how much longer they intend to use it?
I'll never get tired of this video. I wonder if the JRB could play Smoke On The Water
This is one of my favorite videos as well. I love this ship. There’s something about it that really captivates people.
7:20 why do you think your audio of her horn starts loud with each blast but then mutes some?
I have a microphone that is specifically designed to cut out all wind. If I didn’t have that you would never be able to hear me and it would be extremely annoying because you’d be hearing wind gusts. There will never be wind, but it does have a sound canceling feature on it as well. That’s why there’s a little bit of a down tick after a loud noise is heard.
That was unlike any ship horn that I've heard. I don't know if it was actually the horn or if it was just your phone distorting when it was blasted but the horn almost sounded like a note being held on a phazing synthesizer. That was incredible!
I've never heard anything like that, I'd love to experience that in person!! I wonder how far away that ship can be heard.. Awesome video!!
I’m really glad you enjoyed the video! It’s comments like yours that really pump me up! I hope you come back to my channel and watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun. No agenda, just chilling out with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
@@vibewithmike I dig your content, style and dedication plus you know your stuff so you got another subscriber!
I really appreciate you saying that. I’m still learning a lot as I go. Many more people know much more than I do about the ships but it’s all about having fun. Thank you so much. I look forward to chatting with you very soon. Have a great Tuesday.
If the conditions are just right you might hear the JRB from 40-50 miles away.
@supertyfon1736 absolutely, it’s that loud!!!!!!!
The Barker is the real deal
🔊 🔊 🔊 🔊🔊
No doubt
Another Excellent video Mike !! I was fortunate enough to catch her coming in & out that day. ( even if only on DHC ) Many THANKS to you & DHC. from the Porketta man lol.
What’s up Chris! Thanks for watching my friend. There’s nothing like a great Porketta roast!!!!! All the best to you.
We are hoping for different types of weather next week, because of what I’ve seen, it’s beautiful in all types of weather up there!
I’ll checked the weather, it’s going to be wonderful.
Hey Mike. What a gorgeous day!! You should be in a t-shirt in this type of weather. The beach goers are doing it right. The JRB is a beautiful ship. WOW WOW WOW😯😯😯She has the greatest whistle(at least I think so)!!! I can't imagine what that must have felt like. I got goose bumps. So happy you were able to catch this. I can see now why her "bark" is awesome. Safe travels to the captain and crew as I wave goodbye. Have a good evening and I will catch you later!
Karen, I’m not kidding, it shook my entire body. The bark is for real.
@@vibewithmike WOW. Sometimes being there in person is the best. But, I still honestly got goosebumps. She's the best!
It’s a great looking ship and the loudest
Most definitely!😊
👍
Goosebumps!
It was awesome Carolyn. My eardrums are still paying for it.👋⛴️😂👊
6:00 parts of her hull sure look like they've taken a beating from... ice? huge waves? docking too hard? :)
Stephen! Really good eye man. I think it could be a combination of all of the points that you mention. Most likely going through the locks at at Sault Ste. Marie is what I’m thinking?⛴️🤔
Going to have to try to see this in person. Sounded like your camera mic AGC kicked in pretty hard. Very neat tri tone (I think) horn. The high db hit comes in when the low note kicks in. Some interesting harmonics going on for sure. Maybe do some research on the horn itself. That thing must take a TON of air to run.
Magnificent! I hope to experience the Barker this summer! Maybe have that as my ring tone.....ha
What? What? What? I can’t hear you Don! 😂😂😂😂👍👍👊
There not just USA ships in the Great Lakes, so you really can not say that this ship has the loudest horn, but you can say it is loudest you have heard so far.
Just a fun video here Bruce…
Jesus! That might have been heard at the Panama Canal!
I'm sure when it starts getting into the 70's in Duluth, the locals start shaking of that long winter and feeling good about themselves!
It’s nice to get the natural vitamin D from the sunshine. By the way Ed, someone in Panama said “knock off that racket up there and Duluth.” They did hear the Barker.
Really appreciate this video! I'm curious about something regarding steam whistles; I understand the Barker is so equipped.
Can you actually see the whistle in operation? Sort of as if she were tipping her hat? I seem to recall seeing one doing that in another video.
Thank you!
Very very good question. The only steam whistle that I know that I actually see is on the ship, Alpena. Barker has horns that are similar to a train horn that I see installed on the top. I hope you take a few moments to take a look at this video. I posted it two days ago. I know you will enjoy it. ruclips.net/video/hGlUk_bds60/видео.htmlsi=StUJifhFRVVyjnre
Wow that’s ear blasting beautiful!
My ears are still ringing!😂👋👊👍
What an experience. Thank you.
Is the horn on the bridge or on the light tower? Thanks Mike
Good question, the horn is on the bridge. Right above the bridge keeper house in the middle of the bridge.
Thank again Mike!!!
You got it Pam! I hope you have a wonderful Friday night my friend. Take care.👋👍⛴️
Smooth sailing ole girl❤❤❤
Awesome horn on that ship
Richard, you did see the video! I just saw your comments on a different video👍⛴️🤣
Barker is the right name, that was grand.
Thanks for watching! I love the Barker!
I had to listen to that twice! WOW
It’s so cool. I agree with you. Those horns are awesome.
Mike! Thanks. Love you enthusiasm. Did I spell the big word correctly? Take care.
Ha! Yes, you did! I’m glad that you wrote it because I probably couldn’t hear you right now!😂⛴️
The BARKER Provided the Alarm clock earlier that day, giving her Earth Shattering Master Salute at 5:30am
Cand2002, trust me my friend, there’s no hitting the snooze button on that!😂😂👍👊⏰⏰⏰
Loved it, many thanks.. 60,000 0dd tons.. wondered what the gross with vessel weight would be ?
I am so so happy I found this channel absolutely amazing video's Mike keep them coming mike Ontario canada cheers ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I guess it will never go through the Welland Canal. We traveled to Canada when I was a kid and watched the freighters go through the locks.
LOVE THIS SO MUCH, GREETINGS FROM ONTONAGON MICHIGAN !!!
Thank you so much Diane! How’s the weather there in Michigan? Spring has finally sprung here in Duluth. Wait, maybe I shouldn’t say that, I don’t want cold weather to come back.😂⛴️👍
Any regulations on decibels. Greetings from Sheboygan. Nicely done my friend 👏!
That’s an interesting question Kurt. I’m guessing the answer is no, there is no decibel level regulation because of planes and other loud noises around. However, if there is a decibel level regulation, let’s give the ships a pass.😂😂😂😂⛴️
@@vibewithmike I concur totally 👌. We've got enough issues in this country without worrying about a loud toot. This is safety for everyone involved 👏! Same as buying a house 🏠 next to train Trax!
100%
Let's face it....Duluth is ships, boats. Whatever you want to call them. They bring jobs, tourists, and a grand source of community pride. No local politician would ever regulate/support vessel noise laws. And if they did many captains would just hoist the Jolly Roger flag and blast away.
The crew of the JRB would have to testify!😂
I would love to honor the great Lynyrd Skynyrd by naming a 1000 footer after them and blasting the live version of Free Bird guitar solo pulling into port
Michael,
You asked for it!!!!!! Here you go!!!!! ruclips.net/video/nBpe2YQEzZo/видео.html
I grew up with Lynyrd Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker Band, Allman Brothers and Molly Hatchet!!
🎸
Wow such a clear beautiful day it should be like that everyday so we can see these awesome ships arrive and deport ☺⛴☀ and that horn was insane 🤯
I’m not joking, the horn/whistle shakes your body. It’s that powerful!⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️
That’s my dream is to see that ship at the aerial lift bridge
I hope you make it to Duluth and have that dream come true
THAT WAS FRICKIN AWESOME!!!!!
Gavin! I’m glad you enjoyed the video man. Can you believe how crazy huge that beast of a boat is?
@@vibewithmike its absoluteky insane that something that huge can even move much less that swiftly!!
Love all the vids Mike, keep up the good work!
@gavinalaniz5376 Thanks friend!!
That's ma ol lady Rollin outta bed every morning!
Too bad for the automatic gain control of the audio. Starts out really loud then get softer as the adjustment kicks in.
Hey Genifer! Happy Sunday friend. I’m using a special microphone to do these videos. When I started doing the videos you could barely hear me because of wind. This microphone is specifically designed to cut the wind out completely. The downside, the volume is not as loud and there is some sound canceling scenarios as well. However, trust me, if I had a standard microphone, you would never be able to hear me with all the wind here in Duluth. I hope this all makes sense. Thanks for the comment. All the best my friend!👍⛴️👊
@vibewithmike No problem there it's the record level control. the camera or maybe your cellphone has automatic peak adjustment. as the horn gets really loud the record level drops to compensate. Kudos to you for having such a great mic system unfortunately.
This is part of the camera design.
Genifer, it’s a small price to pay to make sure there is no wind. If you look back at some of my old original videos, the wind hurt those videos. Here’s an example video with no upgraded mic. ruclips.net/video/4u_qo7D7Zt4/видео.html
I love what his horn does to the audio 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The horn is showing my microphone who is boss
@@vibewithmike I remember when I heard the Barker in person in 2019… well, my eardrums remember it
"I love to talk". Really?? Is this something new? When did that start? LOL
Thanks for the video
Hey, at least I knew to shut up during the record salute!😂😂😂😂👍👍👍👍
The ship's whistle is actually a secret experiment designed to tear a hole in the fabric of time and space.
Awesome! Beautiful scenery great photography and as the ship floated by, perfect.
Great FUN channel Mike, will that whistle fit on my car...
Gino, let’s make it account brother. Let’s install two of those on our vehicles!📣📣📣📣📣
@vibewithmike Sure Mike you're a riot, glad I find your channel wish you the best brother.
All the best, the weekend is not over, another day to go
I want her whistles for my pontoon boat!
😄
Brian, can you imagine! That would be unbelievable! And make sure that you blast it right as you’re going under a bridge to double Echo!!!!! I hope you come back to my channel and watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun. No agenda, just chilling out with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
I'll bet if people still carried change in their pocket, that would make it jingle. You probably wouldn't hear it though.
James! Such a great comment. What about the people paying with a mobile app? It might vibrate the money right out of the phone! Happy Tuesday night man.👊⛴️👍
