Gibbons calling in the jungle - Borneo rainforest sounds
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- It's 5am deep in the Borneo rainforest. Cicadas, crickets and katydids are winding down their night calls but birds haven't started to sing just yet. Gibbons climb to the top of trees and start calling to let other troops know they're around. Birds and daytime insects slowly wake up and start calling too.
Recorded in Borneo's rainforest with Sony PCM D10, Lom MikroUsi micropohones and BubbleBee Windbubbles. I left the drop rig out in the jungle for 24 hours so I could capture a full day-night cycle. Enjoying these videos? Feel free to support me by:

Thanks for sharing this. I am from Borneo Malaysia, born and raised in Miri. This is truly reminds me of home. Just close my eye and listen it in the dark, it brings me home immediately!
My pleasure, happy to hear that Jessica.
That one thumbs down HAD to be an accident. This is PURE GOLD. I am creating this world in my head. I’m gonna imagine all the forest friends up close. Thank you!!
Haha, maybe someone prefers city noise and pollution or finds the wilderness frightening ;) Thank you for your kind words though, it's a pleasure to be sharing these soundscapes.
Mesmerizing! what an active and wonderful rainforest sound. Hearing the
forest sound always brings back nostalgic memories of childhood. Indeed, these primal
sounds (gibbon calls, and hornbills) have graced the rainforest for millennia, we mustn't let it go
silent within our generation.
Man will regret losing this. You can't put a price tag on nature itself.
Just put my headphones on....marvellous
Excellent way to listen to soundscapes.

I love nature 💓! The sound , the creature , all of them about nature and life.🌱🌿
I was there in Sabah..so nice to ear this again..even when it's raining the jungle's song is amazing!!! Thank you!!
My pleasure, thanks for listening 😊
Amazing recording. Listen to all of your stuff while I work. As a bird guy, my favorite part might happen at the start with the utterly bizarre "song" of the Helmeted Hornbill. It starts with low single notes start at 00:30, goes into double notes at around 00:50, and slowly builds up to a crescendo of evil laughter at 01:20. Thank you for this recording.
That is one of my favourite birds, fascinating calls and behaviour.
Brilliant Work. Was searching a lot for such a quality.
Thank you!
That is one of the best recordings I‘ve heard!Many aren’t soothing at all,but this one is just perfect for me.Not to loud,but you can still hear that much is going on
Enjoy!
1:36 - love the sound of whatever inspect flew by
Do you think it is the same as the one in 5:45? :)
Thank you for your recording.
My pleasure, thanks for listening.
If I could thumbs-up this 1000 times, I would
Thank you, great to hear you're enjoying my recordings.
We don't have these where I'm from but they sound hauntingly beautiful and familiar. Thank you for this. 🙏✨💚
You’re welcome 😊
Wow this is so beautiful
Enjoy!
I just wanna fall asleep on that balcony with a dry cozy warm blanket and feel slight bits of rain hit my head ahhhh
Not a bad idea.
keep up the great work. I also enjoyed your tutorial for us new to the hobby.
I wish i were there.
Yep, me too. That would be an awesome place to shelter in place.
hi GV. Sebelum ini saya suka dengan bunyi-bunyian dan suasana di hutan apatah lagi di hutan negara kelahiran saya, Malaysia. Saya sudah baca blog anda dan sangat tertarik dengan minat dan kesungguhan anda! Teruskan minat dan usaha anda demi dunia. #JagaSOP #KitaJagaKita
Thanks, good to hear you enjoyed listening to these recordings.
Beautiful! I'm going to go to Borneo jungle next year and your recordings are the perfect way to daydream about it in advance
Awesome, enjoy the soundscapes and Borneo!
wow💖
Wonderful. Just built myself a DIY-Version of the mikroUsis witch EM172 capsules. Sounds great :)
Jonas at Lom uses Primo EM258 capsules for MikroUsis and custom circuitry in the Pro variant. I've used the EM172 capsules in Clippy mics and I quite like them, the only downside being that they don't reach as high in the frequency spectrum.
Beautiful
Great-work George!
Thanks Tom, appreciate it!
Which parts of borneo is that? My childhood was amazing because I lived there yeah central borneo jungle with my parents. I really miss those nature sounds, pandemic covid19 still disaster, I can't go there because of area blocking.
This was recorded at Maliau Basin in Sabah, Malaysia. There are absolutely stunning soundscapes all over Borneo though, as long as you can get away from oil palm plantations.
Great. Finding a sound for my upcoming novel on Borneo. Thanks.
Awesome, thanks for listening. Feel free to link to the video if it's an online version.
Wonderful.

Wonderfull sounds 👍i sleep well with this ❤
Thank you!
❤
👍
34:33 I can hear a bird that sounds like it's whistling backwards and it's something spooky about it. 😅😅😅
Thank you so much for your work. And thank you for posting your links and where to support and buy and where to purchase! So beautiful
You are so welcome!
Great quality. Afterworths did you proces the sounds at home or is this 'as is' .....?
Thank you! The only processing I did was subtle rolloff of frequencies below 50Hz and a few dB of added gain. Otherwise it's all as recorded.
I wonder that there is still some forest left....this recording might soon be a sound testament of a destroyed ecosystem never to be seen and heard again.... =(
Nice recording btw!
Couldn't agree more. There's some still left, but who knows for how long?
this is pure magic!! is the whole thing recorded with Sony PCM D10?
Yes it is, but not with the on-board mics. Those would have sounded a bit thin and the stereo image would have been quite narrow.
thanks! i’m thinking about whether to get the Sony PCM-D100 along with microUši microphones or the Sound Devices MixPre II field recorder. would you recommend going for the Sound Devices recorder since it’s not much more expensive than the Sony? it also seems like it is more versatile and has better headphone amps? i’m interested in recording nature and street ambience but have no experience in field recording so i’m really confused which recorder to get. i just want a very clear and crisp sound.
@@mariadecat You can get excellent results with either. The D100 will be easier to learn how to use and more portable, while the Mixpre may require a bit more time investment and isn't as easy to carry. Both have their uses though. For a beginner I would recommend the D100 and MikroUsi combo, with a view to getting a bigger recorder later.
George Vlad thank you for your advice! do you know if PCM D-100 can handle 250 ohm headphones? and do you recon the microUši microphones would work well with MixPre II too or would you recommend getting something else?
@@mariadecat Not sure about the headphone preamp on the D100. It's worth contacting Sony about it. As for the MikroUsis, they should work on the Mixpre II through the 3.5mm connection. I would get the Pro version that uses phantom power in that case though.
Sounds like a chainsaw is being used somewhere. Starts 29 secs in was it recorded near a woodyard .
I can't hear any chainsaw. There's a woodpecker that calls at 29 minutes. Is that what you meant?
Forgive my ignorance of course it was a woodpecker how embarrassing. @@GeorgeVlad
I love the beginning of the video that is quieter than the rest. Where can we find that recording? Which library is this one part of?
Thank you! It’s not part of a library just yet, still working on it. Get in touch if you need the recording and we’ll sort something out: mindful-audio.com/contact
Hello! When you record on a Sony voice recorder, what level of sensitivity do you set on it? Sorry, I'm writing through a translator, thanks for the answer. I have a sony a 10, I want to understand where the noises that are not needed from the device will start.
mikrofony primo 272
The recording levels depend on too many factors to be able to offer a simple answer. The best way to learn is by doing it over and over again. check out this video for more info: ruclips.net/video/XX6NqUkQvfk/видео.html
@@GeorgeVlad thank you very much for the information
helo, can i use the gibbbon sound, for my animation experimen? thank u
Unfortunately you can't, these sounds are copyrighted.
@@GeorgeVlad ok, thank u for the answer

Great video's, great atmosphere, but the green flashing 'eq bar' ruins it, demanding one's attention
Thank you for the feedback good to hear you liked the soundscapes.
