This is one of the most (if not the most) generous displays of knowledge, sharing, insight I've stumbled across. Very much appreciated. Thanking you Robert.
Thanks Robert for you kindness at sharing all this incredible knowledge... You gave me such a big sensation of hope about mankind looking how humble a great professional like You is... thank you so much really!
Thank you for this video. I'm an industrial sound designer. I use field recordings, old tape and cassette, diy bleep box's and fx pedals. I often find I have very flat, tone less recordings. Although I only use cheap laptops, running Audacity and a Zoom hn4-pro, I can use a lot of these techniques. I can create a centre mic by mixing down the stereo condensers off the Zoom etc.... Of course I'll never achieve your production levels, but I will improve my compositions greatly. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of your videos. Once again thank you.
Thank you for sharing your wealth of information. I've been getting into sound design and audio engineering work for video games, this has inspired me to take the next step and go out and capture some fresh sounds of my own.
Firstly - thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in order to help others - much appreciated! I understand you use 3 mics. The shotgun mic in the center, and 2 condenser mics, which each get panned to a different channel - thus resulting in sounds which come from the left, right and center. (Hopefully I m correct so far). My questions is...... Could this also be done with a single shotgun mic, by duplicating the mono shotgun mic track twice, and then do the same thing - pan 1 duplicate to the left, and the other duplicate to the right, and leave the original centered? Would this have the same effect, or is there something I am missing which can only be achieved using the 2 condenser mics?
The handheld aspect of your mic concept is brilliant. I have adapted your design to my own liking. It's always special to see how people like you approach sound, gives new insights and really helps to develop someones own style. For me it's creating samples for a hardware synth/sampler & drum machine I use. Recording samples from scratch is such a joy to do. Thank you Robert!
The difference in sample rate is actually pretty insane. Started recording in 96k instead of 44.1 and I get way more detail when shifting down. Amazing tip, thank you!
Hi Robert. I'm just starting out and ended up going for the NTG5 which is a bit shorter, and was wondering what sort of stereo technique you are using for the side mics? Are they aimed at the capsule of the shotgun at a particular angle/distance? Also, as NT6's are beyond my budget currently, I was wondering if you had any thoughts on the NT5's as stereo mics (they are about 1/4th the price). Currently I am testing out some cheap Behringer pencil mics, but am not sure if they are of adequate quality or not yet (I still need to make a stereo bar and get some dead cats for them). Also I was wondering if your 3d printed stereo bar design might work with the shorter shotgun mic, or if perhaps I need to modify it. Thanks a ton for any advice you are able to give!
Hi, The NTG 5 is phenomenal mic and have very nice low end and that you focus, you can add for stereo two RØDE NT5 matching pair, you can found them on eBay very cheap. I use them when i started and the sound fantastic. I printed this stereo bar but you have the idea and you can do something similar, look at amazon for any dslr camera parts, for example smallrig have lot great parts and you can found parts to assemble bar what will work for you. Just like playing with LEGO blocks.
Hi Robert, Mastering your Sounds before you Export the Files in Kontakt? Or normalize you the files in Kontakt without Mastering? What is your Mastering Chain
Amazing Robert!! Great video as usual! And thanks for letting us in on your stereo bar build! Now only thing left on my wishlist is a Studio tour where you go through all your toys back there!
@@RobertDudzic Hello Robert ! How do you loop perfectly a wav sample into an infinite pad / what is your process ? - i often ear the loop point i've made...
Thank you for taking the time to share! You are an incredible resource for me as I’m navigating through learning and making my own sounds, well done 👍🙏
Thank you for information ! You are the Best ✌️ One question: Do you normalize all your sounds to 0 db? If yes is it normal to normalize Mid and Side to 0db at the same time ?
I never normalize sounds, i mix every sound individually and mix them to -6db. This is giving me plenty room to post process when i finalize all or mix with other elements.
Hi Robert, how do you do final soud design (what software)? I ask because I tried to do some sound design in Cubes and I found that when it comes to adding effects, Cubase is very inconvenient (for me) because you can only apply the effect to entire tracks and not to sound clips separately, so almost every sound had to has its own track.
@@RobertDudzic You know perfectly well whether or not you're recording a close-range stereo image, there is nothing unusual about recording stereo with a centre mike and your response to my question, as you also know, is flippant. Cool, I was thinking of hiring you to consult on a project, but not now.
Why u still recording with the NTG3 and not the new NTG5? for a guy who wants to enter in this world of sound design and record foley for sports..in my case I want to do a Sound Design for sport comercials and movies..and I need to record a lot of outdoor and indoor
NTG3 is fantastic mic and I love. RØDE send me every single model the mics and I use what I like, depend on location my mic setup is constantly changing😊
I mix all them in to stereo file and after that i carful edit every single useful sound and import to KONTAKT after this sky is the limit how i combine all this sounds.
I'm passionate in exploring any nature anomaly audio so far there's some collection in my channel the audio from 'astral voice phenomena'.. .. if you or anybody else find something interesting feel free to use it no disclaimer needed, just share with me the link if you finished messing up with it maybe much interesting, cheers..😊 any way thanks for the class..🙏
dear robert I would kindly like to invite you towards collaborating with me. i can send you a couple viola stems. you process them, you add some sounds on top of it, and you try to create an haunting and twisted sound narrative on top of it. all the assets that you create towards the music, even processing the sound of my instrument will remain yours. i just advice you at donating some money into some charity of your choice. all the music you will send me will be my property, but i will always credit your work in concerts, and so. if you have an interest towards that, feel free to reach me, and i will send you maybe one or two Gb of high quality viola sounds. you will even though be able to make a video about the process. i just advice you not to mention my name there. cheers T.
This is such a valuable and generous share. I can't believe you are putting this sort of quality out for free. Fantastic.
Thank You.
Love these videos, Robert! Thanks for sharing your process!

Great video! Thank you very much!
Thank You, glad you like.
Good work!) Thanks!!!)
During field recordings for ambient sounds, nature sounds, and sound effects have you ever used a mic booster (example: Cloudlifter) ?
No, I like to keep my sounds the way recorder will capture them.
Excellent!
Thank you
Can't wait tomorrow to watch the video! I know i already love it and will find so much true inspiration...
✌
Thank You Sebastain😊
Happy Birthday Robert!!!!
Thank you
Robert, thank you so much for sharing your priceless experience with those who only starts their way in audio. Best regards!

@@RobertDudzic a master at work! Bravo!
WoW! I copied your Tascam X8/Rode NTG5 setup - the sounds that I record are so much better now! Thank You for the great ideas and videos 👍
Thank You. Glad you like.
Do you have a video on how you land the jobs for this type of work?
The difference in sample rate is actually pretty insane. Started recording in 96k instead of 44.1 and I get way more detail when shifting down. Amazing tip, thank you!
😊
Glad you like 😊
Except nobody mixes post in 96k. And all our deliverables ask for 48k

Which earphones are you using?
Dzięki za ten film! Trochę otworzyło mi się nowe spojrzenie na zabawę z dźwiękiem 🙂 Czekam z niecierpliwością na kolejne filmy. Pozdrawiam! 🙂
Dziekuje. Bedzie kolejny film ale jeszcze nie wiem kiedy😊
Your videos are pure gold!
Thank you
This trick with Kontakt is the same as a Simpler in Ableton or not?
Hi Robert, Mastering your Sounds before you Export the Files in Kontakt? Or normalize you the files in Kontakt without Mastering? What is your Mastering Chain
Please watch on my RUclips channel LIMITATIONS BREADS CREATIVITY.
Thanks Robert! :)
You are a very kind, humble and creative person. Greetings from Hungary and all the best - Debsound :)
Thank You so much :-)
Great information, thank you very much.
Thank you for your support😊
Loved this! Amazing! Thank you Robert! 😊❤️
Thank you so much.
thanks for the lesson master! Could you tell me what program you use to edit the sound?
Steinberg Cubase 12
Amazing Robert!! Great video as usual! And thanks for letting us in on your stereo bar build!
Now only thing left on my wishlist is a Studio tour where you go through all your toys back there!
Thank you there’s nothing really to show I’m not using anything different with anyone else is using😊
Very interesting, thank you Robert !

Very helpful sir,
You have exported the tracks as a single track, then you dragged in the kontakt, how it happened
Mixdown to stereo and edit rest is in the video.
Thanks so much!
Glad you like😊
Learnt so much. Thank you.
Awesome! 😊
love your work, but why not use M/S decoding with your mics, it could result in less phase issues? Thanks for this!
I never have phase issues. I do what work for me😊
Thanks for teaching us and informing us about your job! I have a question. Have you ever made monster sound design
Yes i did a lot and i will do separate video dedicate just to creating this type sounds.
Very informative - thanks!
Fantastic it makes me happy knowing you enjoy it and you like it.
Thanks for teaching us these cool tricks and techniques, Robert. You are an inspiration! I think your Facebook link points to another person's...
Thank you glad you like it and I already fixed a Facebook link.
@@RobertDudzic I tried to find earphones with the same logo and then I realized it's your logo! Were they made on demand by you? They're very cool!
Great videos, man. Sounds are just out of this world! I hope to learn. I can record & have enough gear, just processing....
Thank You, you will found you way how to process the sound the way you fell😊
Thank you for information ! You are the Best ✌️

Great film, Dear Robert I have Reaper DAW program. Its good type of soft for good sound or not? Thx for Your job :)
Hi Łukasz, I know about Raper but never have chance do any think on. I really don’t know.
@@RobertDudzic thx
Great content Robert !!!!
Thank You.
Hi Robert, how do you do final soud design (what software)? I ask because I tried to do some sound design in Cubes and I found that when it comes to adding effects, Cubase is very inconvenient (for me) because you can only apply the effect to entire tracks and not to sound clips separately, so almost every sound had to has its own track.
Hi I will recommend to watch Cubase tutorials and learn how to apply FX on individual audio clip, its very simple.
@@RobertDudzic Oh, thaks, i didn't know it's possible. So do you think, that Cubase is good choice for sound copositing?
Hi, when you record with the stereo bar that you made, would you describe the setup as AB stereo recording with a centre mike, or something else?
I call them L and R and shotgun i call center.
@@RobertDudzic Sorry I asked the question.

NTG3 is fantastic mic and I love. RØDE send me every single model the mics and I use what I like, depend on location my mic setup is constantly changing😊
Were those 3 tracks on the monitor clipping?
The recorder records everything 32bit and this clipping not effect my audio. You can record very loud sound sources and you will be fine😊
Can I do the sound mixing you are doing with LogicX?
Yes, the way i mix you can do this n any DAW
Good luck 👍👍👍
Thank you
Very interesting, thanks a lot!
You’re welcome glad to hear you’re enjoying it.
