10 years since this video and the person he was talking about I figured might've not even been around anymore. It's so cool to see you're not only still uploading but that you've built a fairly sizable channel. That's amazing!
35:50 is a perfect example of the Evolutionary Theory I have that animals during patient necessary waiting, tap into this euphoric relaxing state when hearing sounds... To keep them patient while waiting for prey or avoiding predators.
I love how ASMR is constantly evolving and growing. There was a small period where I couldn't get tingles, but thanks to an influx of amazing and creative ASMRtists I can have a healthy does of tingles daily.
Dimitri, Lauren (and anyone else interested), Can I offer a little advice on binaural recording? I'm a sound engineering student and I've used many stereo recording techniques. For starters, the Zoom H4n is a damn nifty portable stereo recorder. It's pretty powerful. I love it for what it is. The configuration of those two microphones at the top however, are in XY. The XY stereo mic configuration is actually rather narrow, so even though it is two channels and can be panned hard left and right, it's not considered binaural really, BUT for videos like these, it's not only easy to set up, but affordable, so if it's your only choice, it's a good one. Now, if, like you, Dimitri and you have two cardioid pencil mics like the Rode NTG-3 (yay for aussie mics!), you can play. One of the easiest and most accurate binaural mic configurations is ORTF. It is quite an accurate representation of how a human hears and it works best if the listener is using headphones (which most are). Basically, you set up your two mics to be around 17.2cm apart and angled at 110 degrees. But anyway, You're doing a great job Dimitri! Best of luck to Lauren!
An entire binaural video of carving this foam would sound amazing. Using a very sharp knife would minimize the higher pitched squealing sounds. This is such a great instructional video and very asmr inducing. Thanks again, Dmitri!
This video made setting up my Zoom so much easier and gave me the basic understanding of the whole technical side of ASMR with different mics even before I started my channel. Thank you so much and all the best to you!
Informative type videos have been a big trigger for me since before i even knew what ASMR was. Getting familiar with a new piece of epuipment or technology always seems to put me into a very relaxed mood. So needless to say i thoroughly enjoyed this!
yes but this tech enables binaural or 3d sound which assists in asmr. I for example get triggers from 3d sounds on my right year that are whispered not scratched, maybe tapped. it's individual
This has been so helpful!! Thank you so much. I think I'll have to watch this a few times to get a setup like this but it made it much more clear. Welldone and once again: thank you! Much love Fammy (Miss ASMR)
If a microphone requires power, it doesn't mean that it's a better microphone, for example take a Shure SM58 which is a dynamic mic, that doesn't need any power and take a Behringer C-1 that requires 48v of phantom power. SM58 will sound a lot better. Dynamic microphones also perform better in a non acoustically treated environment. To make your sound better you want a decent preamp in addition to your microphone, that will reveal the full potential of any microphone. P.S - Rode's sound better.
Haha- you are so darn cute Dmitri :-D haha... Love when the knife disconnected and kept staying in the "foam" :-) haha... Btw... I WANT your "orangina" poster... It's SO cool... (In dk it's so popular with retro posters now... We are back in the 70's..:-) thank you for the vid... I did not get asmr, but it was fun to watch :)
Front-back localisation is always difficult, it seems, that the problem could be, that every head and ear is a bit diffrent. So when I record with a Sennheiser MKE 2002 using my own ears, front-back localisation works much better for me, than in other binaural recordings, using a dummy head.
hey doood! question: why dont you create an actual human head out of the foam? maybe give it a hair style and a geeky face with puzzled expression? that would be really cool! and..... closer to what you are trying to create!
Very nice. I have its foreign zoom so I believe I may try this. Please tell me how much the microphones were that you put in the foam block. Thank you Keith Kuhn
Dimitri, question. What would you say is most effective in your opnion? your NTG's in an ORTF array, Binaural Mics in the Head, or the Zoom H4n in the wide configuration?
Do you think the ear cavities will help front-back directional audio by simulating the slight change in character from sounds behind the ears? That always seems to be a problem in 90% of binaural recordings - right-left is awesome, even high-low seems to work well for some reason, but front-back is often hard to perceive. I support the return of cutting sounds, as others have already :)
Well the Rhodes are clearly higher quality but cost a hell of a lot more than the MK. So the Mk's are great for beginners and people with a lower budget.
This is really helpful! I'm trying, to no avail, to get my sound system right. I'm thinking I'll have to proffer money for the zoom. I'm a little confused as to what the connections are coming out of the bottom of your zoom. Was that power supply or microphones? I watched your explanation 3 times and am still confused. Sorry for being a little slow on the uptake :)
punkypineASMR Yay!!!! Have fun with it! And little tip with the record button (this used to always get me) when its red light is not blinking it's recording. You have to press twice to stop it blinking and enter record mode from what I remember.
Still watching old videos. Great triggers for me. Interesting different triggers for different people and why.
Crazy there's other people watching these old videos too
oldies but goldies
for real
I still watch this x
Same

@@MrFredstt thanks
Dmitri, you're the king of quality binary recordings. Hands down. It's not the expense of the technology but rather the set up and dedication you have
35:50 is a perfect example of the Evolutionary Theory I have that animals during patient necessary waiting, tap into this euphoric relaxing state when hearing sounds... To keep them patient while waiting for prey or avoiding predators.
I love the sound cutting the foam too

Also, I didn't watch the entire video, so apologies if any of this was mentioned by you :)
This video explains everything that I need to improve the audio on my channel. A thousand thanks!
3 years later still no video on your chanel
@@pvsnoirMaybe they made vids but decided it wasn't something they wanted to do and either never uploaded or took them down 🤷🏻♂️
2:10... oh I thought we were friends
+Ajax Clark FINGERS GIVEN!!!! #mlg420360noscopegetrektm8smokzw33devydy
I point at stuff like that too and get jokes about it.
How very generous of you to dedicate a whole video to helping another ASMRtist. And we get to listen to all those nice foamy noises too! x
Not even 10 seconds in and I get very intense tingles from that foam block.
...whoa.
An entire binaural video of carving this foam would sound amazing. Using a very sharp knife would minimize the higher pitched squealing sounds. This is such a great instructional video and very asmr inducing. Thanks again, Dmitri!
The blade clicks were outstanding sounding, very quick burst of asmr all of the sudden
This video made setting up my Zoom so much easier and gave me the basic understanding of the whole technical side of ASMR with different mics even before I started my channel. Thank you so much and all the best to you!
So cool of you to "pull back the curtain" a little to show other people the equipment and techniques you use.
Mine records too quiet. I plugged it into the laptop with the A3 adapter and recorded with sound recorder. How do I fix this?
***** Just my pc sound recorder lol
Thank you again
When it zoomed in on the sound of the silver soap, I loved it
Knowing that makes me want some in-ear binaural mics even more (and I didn't think that was possible)!
I feel as though the rode had a better sound quality, more crisp. great job
Cutting that foam sounded really nice!
i still watch this now😌 such a perfect video
I wanted to get a set up like Laurens but I thought it would be too techie for me but you made it look pretty simple! Thanks :)
Informative type videos have been a big trigger for me since before i even knew what ASMR was. Getting familiar with a new piece of epuipment or technology always seems to put me into a very relaxed mood. So needless to say i thoroughly enjoyed this!
That foam has a fantastic sound to it.
Please use the OKM Classics; I don't mind the hissing but the clarity of those gentle trebles is incredible.. The rodes sound nearly muted xD
omg I love his eyes
This video was looking interesting, but then I fell asleep! :)
can you record asmr without this technology?
yes but this tech enables binaural or 3d sound which assists in asmr. I for example get triggers from 3d sounds on my right year that are whispered not scratched, maybe tapped. it's individual
2:11 Lol he flipped us off
Yes Dmitri is awesome awesome awesome
You upload so much videos, it'S fun cuz I can watch a new video almost everyday :)
Dmitri what do you think of the Rhodes?
You're awesome for helping Lauren :)
Please can you do a binaural video of you cutting the foam? That sound was heavenly.
Nice job Dimitri! Actual binaural dummy heads are really expensive....so you did a good job at making this more affordable dummy head. :D
Another great job Dimitri! Keep the tingles coming!
You are the BEST asmr artist EVER!
You should do a video of just cutting foam with the second blade you used
Dude do u have a iron in your house lol....just teasing Its great that your helping Lauren
This has been so helpful!! Thank you so much. I think I'll have to watch this a few times to get a setup like this but it made it much more clear. Welldone and once again: thank you! Much love Fammy (Miss ASMR)

They are all excellent microphones but the rode one fits nicely with the asmr theme
27 18 fantastic eye contact
still watching
ahhhh the tingles have returned :)
Haha- you are so darn cute Dmitri :-D haha... Love when the knife disconnected and kept staying in the "foam" :-) haha... Btw... I WANT your "orangina" poster... It's SO cool... (In dk it's so popular with retro posters now... We are back in the 70's..:-) thank you for the vid... I did not get asmr, but it was fun to watch :)
Tapping your phone was tingle inducing for mee! :)
Fantastic video Dmitri!
Awesome :) I love you and Lauren both!
Silver soap in total binaural sounds *-* I'm up to heaven :D please do this more often in your vids with your own microphones ;)
Front-back localisation is always difficult, it seems, that the problem could be, that every head and ear is a bit diffrent. So when I record with a Sennheiser MKE 2002 using my own ears, front-back localisation works much better for me, than in other binaural recordings, using a dummy head.
Fix the blade inside at the range you wanna use it, and then screw the bolt behind. But I presume you found out since the video has been made :P
here i am!!!
Love the video but it’s funny u flipped us off 2 minutes in 😂😂
Should have printed a shape of a head cut it out then taped it to the block and cut around it but all together cool job my friend
We can hear under 100 Hz though. Wouldn't it sound more natural to have those frequencies?
36 22 soap is fantastic
sticking the microphones in 2:12 point A and point B. gotcha :)
Anyone get that feeling where you can like taste the sounds xD. ontop of the asmr (it's hard to explain xD)
Nice man! Keep it up!
This is why when I do foam weapons for me or my LARPing buddies, I use a freakin' KA-BAR.
hey doood! question: why dont you create an actual human head out of the foam? maybe give it a hair style and a geeky face with puzzled expression? that would be really cool! and..... closer to what you are trying to create!
Love it Dmitri!
Very nice.
I have its foreign zoom so I believe I may try this.
Please tell me how much the microphones were that you put in the foam block.

you are a genius!!! thank you for your hard work!

2.02 wow!!!
tosco... where is link the OKM II Classic Binaural ??
sounds like your are saying bi-newral instead of bin-oral??
Awesome vid!!!
It's his accent. It's pronounced "Bi-Nural" here in Canada.
geeetube North Americans? And you live where exactly?
geeetube Nothing, I'm just wondering.
+geeetube He can't help the fact that he has an accent chill
geeetube True Shhhhiiiti boiii

The first 14 minutes was the better asmr sounds
Sorry for my english
You gave us the bird a couple times haha
really? I will look into that:)
Well the Rhodes are clearly higher quality but cost a hell of a lot more than the MK. So the Mk's are great for beginners and people with a lower budget.
You are so clever

Those leads coming out from the bottom of the Zoom are two XLR cables also known as mic leads :)
And the power supply that you select in the menu is if you use a jack lead. :)
Good timing on your comment. I just got my zoom! Thanks to Dmitri and you I was able to get it working properly. Thanks you two!
punkypineASMR Yay!!!! Have fun with it! And little tip with the record button (this used to always get me) when its red light is not blinking it's recording. You have to press twice to stop it blinking and enter record mode from what I remember.
I gotta say the rode was the best!
You're amazing, and I really enjoyed this video. C:
This I support.
how many mics do you have?
Damn, that's one big ass swanky carpet knife. :D
Does your company happen to use Hiren Diagnostic Disc's?
30 15 brilliant
51:00 mics are L/R switched
4.15 top
Love the others to though!!!
Why is idea a "ider" and ear a "ea"
why do you frigin think
I was just playing. I know.
Lool
He flipped is off: 2:16
how much in u.s. dollars does that zoom recorder cost?
The Rodes sound better to me. I don't really like the hissing from the OKM's.
2:15 flippin us of huh, lol
2:12 he flips us off xD
wow.. are you an engineer? haha
great vid..
Gangsta Dimitri at 2:10
Amen
OKM classic II.
Dmitri, you have to train your blades and 3D manuveur skills :D
Love your vids. Even if you flipped me the bird in this vid. Haha
4:12 Lol damn box cutters.
