    Curious how I managed to record this soundscape? Read the expedition report and find out: mindful-audio.com/blog/2019/8/8/sound-recording-expedition-to-the-congo-rainforest

    The sound of the rolling thunder is the best I've ever heard on my headphones. Wonderful work... Thank you for this.

    Fantastic!! Just love the sound of tropical thunder with its deep ominous rumbling and the jungle sounds full of insects and birds. . . Great stuff

    It is an excellent testimony, because this world is disappearing.
    I myself am a musician and do a lot of recordings in nature. Spending hours recording it and listening to it through headphones puts us in direct contact with his soul. It's fantastic. Well done.
    What is the frequency analyser you put under de picture?
    C'est un excellent témoignage, car ce monde est en train de disparaitre.
    Je suis moi-même musicien et fait beaucoup de prises de sons dans la nature. Le fait de passer des heures à l'enregistrer et à l'écouter au casque, nous met en relation directe avec son son âme. C'est fantastique. Bravo.

      They happen daily in the rainy seasons, which vary in timing across the Congo basin rainforest.

      They're both great, the Loms are only slightly better (smaller size, better ultrasonic frequency response).

    This is so amazing, meditative, and immersive! Just curious, was this solely the PCM-D100 mics or you use other mics? Thought I saw you say luhd mics. if so which ones? This is amazing!

    • @GeorgeVlad
      @GeorgeVlad  4 роки тому +1

      Thank you! Back then I was mostly recording with phantom power mics. Iin this case I used a pair of Luhd PM-01 binaural mics plugged into the D100, but they're not really something I'd recommend. For the same price you can get a pair of Lom mikroUsi or Clippy EM172 which will sound way better.

    What is the frequency response of the mics used here?

    • @GeorgeVlad
      @GeorgeVlad  4 роки тому

      The mics on the D100 pick up sound up to 70-80kHz but this was limited to 24kHz due to Nyquist theorem effects.

      Yeah, I have the MKH8020s for that, they will pair well with 32-bit recorders for loud sources like thunder.
