I knew you had a background in music.....im a retired engineer myself, both audio and lighting. Working as a lux artist most of my career, gem cutting is like an evolution of my craft.
I was ready to light my microphone on fire before i watched this. Ive been on a mission for some time now trying to figure out this horrible rattling noise. Now thanks to you i have been able to figure out where it lives and i can now skeep soundly.
I really appreciate your detailed instruction. I'm just getting started in ASMR and it's been a great help. I wish you all the best in your endeavors and continued inspiration ✨
Thank you so much for this video! There aren't many audio editing tutorials out there specifically for asmr. As a complete audio beginner, I really appreciate you having taken the time to make this video. One thing I've been struggling is volume. After all the editing, how do you know if it's the right volume to upload to UA-cam? Is there a certain volume that's recommended? I have no idea how to tell 😅
The closer you can get it to 0 is best. You don't want to get so close that it goes over 0 which should make a red light pop up and means its clipping and making distortion. You really have to use your ears as you're boosting it. If it starts to sound distorted or smashed or flattened in some weird way, you've pushed it too far. The best thing to do is listen to another normal youtube video and then listen to yours without changing the speaker volume and see if yours sounds quiet or normal.
It shouldn't as long as your settings aren't too extreme. In my sequence, the Ozone plugin is acting as my final limiter. Ideally the limiter should be the last thing in your plugin chain so that other plugins don't raise the volume above 0 after the limiter.
Bless you for making an ASMR editing video! I was wondering if you could make one for just voice for one part, and maybe voice and very low ambient background music? I mean, just so we can hear the process with those as opposed to the pottery wheel?
Thank you so much for sharing!! Like you said there really aren't many videos on sound editing for ASMR. And I am super happy that I found your video! What you did looks very pro to me but you explained every single step well!! Thank you! I also wonder if you ever used Blue Yeti for ASMR? I think It would be super interesting to see an ASMR sound editing video using Blue Yeti considering a lot of ASMR content creators are using that mic including myself. Not sure if that's going to be different than Rode NT1, or pretty much the same techniques? Nevertheless, appreciate your work! :)
Thank you for this video! My recent video now sounds much better. The only part I got stuck at was I didn't have option to export directly back into premiere pro for some reason so I exported it as an MP3 and then got it into Premiere Pro (ugh). I didn't have the same window in Audition that you had to begin with (at 5:14 where you have 2 tracks and a master - I had just one track and no master... and no options to turn Left all the way to the left like you showed.) - Do you know how to get those windows to pop up? Maybe it's because I recorded on cardioid on my blue yeti instead of stereo? 2nd question: I feel like my recent video is too loud. Do you know how to make sure it doesn't go above the maximum? I set DB maximum to 0 but then the entire volume went down :/ Thank you!
As for cardiod function, all this means is that the mic is only picking up sound from directly in front of it (can be great for reducing background noise and only picking up on your voice) but itll still translate to a stereo rather than a mono track in most editing software; however, that wont give it 2 tracks. He has 2 tracks because he is using 2 mics. If you did want a binaural sound from the yeti, you can use the stereo mode pattern, but I don't believe that will translate into 2 tracks either.
If your video is too loud maybe the problem is that the audio clipped above 0 db while you recorded. If that is not the case you should learn a little bit about compression that way you can make the louder parts of your audio quiter. The reason why setting max volume to 0 dB is that your computer is moving the loudest part is hitting 0dB but it is moving the other parts of the audio too so overall its quiter. If you dont mind having your whole audio on less volume you can always turn the gain down so its not clipped. Anyways the best solution for your problem might be using a compressor.
Hi! Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful tutorial with us!! I would like to know: what kind of microphones are u using on those two tripods (min 2:16)? What is their brand/reference?I wish to do ASMR too! Thank you!!
Yes it’s pretty good. Of course the more you treat your room the better it sounds. My room is huge and made of all concrete, softened with curtains, foam, and floor covering. It works well I think.
Hello, great video, you are a professional in your field, could you tell us, we have a ZOOM-H8, and we want to record the sounds of crunching, rustling for asmr, for example, watermelon crunching or seeds falling on the table, how would you recommend setting up our recorder with standard microphone XY, thank you
Well with an x-y mic just point it at what you want to record, get as close as you can, and turn the gain up as high as you can without clipping or distorting. I’m not sure if the x-y mic will give you a very big sound space in the headphones. I had an h8 many years ago and it’s a great recorder but never tried it for asmr. But definitely give it a try and pan the left and right out as far as you can in editing for the biggest sound space you can make. Good luck.
@@JustinKPrim Thank you very much dear friend, I understand you, could you tell me what is better to buy from equipment, for a more professional approach to this matter, I mean, maybe some kind of sound card is better instead of a recorder ?, or something else, I I know how to work with sound, I have Fl. Studio but in ASMR and noise reduction, I'm just a novice in this business and I don't understand what equipment to stock, I know about microphones, but I'm not sure about the recorder or sound card, Thank you🥰
@@vkusno_prodano well if the zoom has xlr inputs you can always use external mics. I’m using rode nt1a I think and they work well for asmr. I’m using a very cheap usb audio interface. I got it used in Facebook for about $80. Almost all of them are good these days and for asmr the only thing you don’t want is input noise. Otherwise they are all good.
@@JustinKPrim Good afternoon Justin, I’m sorry, I won’t bother you anymore, you told me that I need to do paranaming of the sound, could you tell me which plugin does this, Thank you and sorry for annoying you
Excellent content. Thank you! Btw, regarding the high freq you mentioned that you haven't been able to identify, could it be due to a lack of lubrication on the metal hardware that is causing a subtle metal grinding noise? Maybe some WD-40 is needed?
I think maybe it’s the electric wire box outside my house. This sound is too consistent and it’s almost ultrasonic. I can’t hear it with my ears. It’s like a high pitched hum. And sometimes the wires do hum in Thailand.
Thank you so much for this video! Is there a specific software for recording the audio? I own the average 3DIO microphone that connects via UBS directly to the computer, but I don't know how to save the sound.
I’m using the Adobe suite so Adobe Premiere can do audio and video and Adobe Audition is a dedicated sound app. For free or cheap ones, I am not sure. I haven’t tried any. Ableton live also works and I used to use that before Adobe but now that I have the whole Adobe suite it makes sense just to use them both. Though actually now I use premiere for everything because my new computer is powerful enough to do video and audio effects simultaneously.
@@JustinKPrim Thank you for answering. For editing, I installed premiere. My question is this: how do you record the audio itself? Is it into the software? Thanks again for answering me~
I'm really curious! As a Sound Engineer, do you not find it necessary to adjust your audio to reach a certain LUF before export to accommodate for UA-cam normalization?
Maybe this is a bit unrelated, but: if i were to play a game and i want to protect my ears from loud gunshots. Would just using the Loudness Equalization setting in the Windows 10 sound enhancement tab be enough to achieve the desired result. Or should I download a program like SoundLock to limit loud sounds?
Wow had no idea so much editing was going into ASMR videos. I have been listening to ASMR for over ten years maybe thinking of making them myself but this seems like so much work 😳 specially since I don’t know anything about “audio engineering” adobe etc… would you be able to do the editing for people who have no clue what they’re doing? And obviously getting paid for your time.
Sorry I don’t. I already don’t have enough time to do all the projects I want to do for myself. I think if you go on fiverr.com that you could probably find an audio engineer.
Make sure you have the mic gain turn up as high as you can without clipping into the red. That’s a good start. If you have to boost the sound later that’s going to introduce unwanted noise.

can asmr audio be edited in a video editing software or it has to be edited in a DAW first? I watched someone who said he edits asmr audio in Davinchi resolve..
Yes. Now I edit everything in premiere but if you want to add a bunch of plugins to both your left and right channels your computer might start lagging. My old computer couldn’t do it.
@@ChimneyCakes well, eq, noise reduction, and compression, and audio mastering are the plugins I use. I’ve never used resolve so I don’t know how well it handles audio and video simultaneously.
