![]() Note: I also use my cellphone for recording. The recorder can be taken almost anywhere in my shirt, pants, or coat pockets. The recorder that I use is a Tascam DR-05. The audio in the video is not what they are recording, however.Ī post shared by Lars Lentz Equipment – Recorders Here below you can see these microphones attached to a tree branch. I have used the contact microphones made by Cold Gold. They attach to objects and then the vibrations of the objects are recorded as sounds. Contact RecordingĬontact recordings do not necessarily give you the realism of being there as in binaural recordings, but they instead convert the tactile response to an audible one. It allows sound to come through it nearly unimpeded. ![]() In many cases I use a product called Windfree that is like a set of earmuffs, but without the fur. The in-ear microphones have little foam pieces that go over the microphones and then into your ear, but I sometimes find this annoying and impractical when I want to respond quickly and record something. Yes, you give up some sensitivity to lower level noises, but I find it is better to prevent the wind noise if possible instead of editing it out later. You will have lots of wind noise to edit if you do not cover the ears/microphones with a furry cover during even the slightest windy weather. Wind protection is a real thing and must be considered. The mini binaural ears and in-ear microphones need power so I turn on the power option within my recorder and these high-sensitivity microphones really give a true binaural experience. Power is needed to activate these microphones. With these, I can record the ambiance of an area without drawing attention to myself much at all. ![]() These microphones are from SoundProfessionals and are model number 30-11847 (C7-XLR) – MS-TFB-2-11847. People don’t know you’re recording, so everyone acts naturally around you and do not ask questions of you. You wear these and they are inconspicuous as it looks like you are listening instead of recording. The in-ear, worn, microphones are also from SoundProfessionals. I use these when I don’t have the ability to be still enough or don’t have the time to spend sitting and recording. For indoors, they draw too much attention. I like to use these for when I can put them on a tripod and leave them outside in the environment. They are more portable than a full head system and record great binaural sound. They are realistic but fake ears that have microphones embedded down inside of them to simulate a head. The binaural “mini-ears” I use are from SoundProfessionals and are model number B-15029. Soundprofessionals #MS-MINI-BINAURAL-EARS Mini-Ears and In-Ear Binaural Microphones Frequency Response Curve (same curve for both) in-ear binaural microphones that I wear in my own ears (preferred – gets best binaural effect).a mini-ears (fake ears) binaural set-up as shown below, or.To get high-quality binaural sound, I use either By doing this, when you play it back you get an authentic reproduction of the sound as if your ears were hearing it in real-time. Binaural recording, simply and for my purposes, is recording sound with two microphones separated by a human head or reasonable facsimile. The effect of “being there” is achieved through binaural recording. The Technique, Equipment, and Settings Binaural Recording Here is the technique, equipment, and settings I use. When I play my recordings back, I want them to sound exactly like when I was there. I like recording ambient sounds of nature, locations, equipment, and other assorted noises.
