Connected!

For a while now, I have presented different audio clips, with or without visual connection. When you do field recording, you end up with a lot of awesome sounds. Sometimes you would like that sound to be the sound track of some video.

Simple setup

So the first thought is to simply overlay the sound to a silent video track and present it as an old-fashioned slide show.

Relaxing on the beach

Well, relaxing for as much as possible on a beach in Canada in winter. While the swimming attire had to wait at home, the weather was nice enough to present some waves on a beach with rocks. Every field recordist has something like that in his/her collection, right?

Rode M5

For me, this was an opportunity to try out something new.

GAS

Gear Acquisition Syndrome, an ailment all photographers and sound recordists suffer from. At least once they admit they have it, that is. It’s very common and hard to avoid. After all, we all want the best in both photography and in recording gear.

When I took up field recording (at last) a few years ago, I didn’t think this would be an expensive hobby.

Spectro

I have often wondered if it were possible to see sound. I know that sounds weird. Long ago, a favourite HiFi store of mine had the slogan “Sound and Vision”. They always boasted that both go together and if well done, one could be the other. You could “see” the sound and “hear” the images.

That went a bit far for my “sober” taste, but hey, the HiFi gear from those guys was excellent.
