Great ..you are entitled to your opinion, and if you choose not to use my music or sfx that's fine..but rather than help, you have infact come here to discredit me on this thread it would appear. You are correct in saying that I have come from a music industry background. But...I have also...

I knew you would come back with that question. If you are not having a go at me as you say, perhaps you trying to show that one of us is more of an audio expert than the other? I expect questions like that on Gearslutz...but on Indietalk it's perhaps a little surprising. But for the...

Just brought to my mind was the case of someone who made a corporate video using one of my songs a year or so back, and instead of using the Wav file, or even the 320kbps mp3, they used a 96kbps mp3 sample demo in the video! Made me cringe to hear my music ruined by an mp3 of that low quality in...

Thanks guys...your interesting comments and perspectives have certainly given me some food for thought I can't speak for the other contributors on the site, but as for me....Yes I do have the original recordings of my songs and sfx at higher rates if they were required. Having said that, I am...

The majority of professional TV editors and TV sound recordists, youtube video makers etc are still working at 16 bit, and 48 k, and often using mp3's too. Not that I in any way recommend that people should record at 16 bit or use mp3s, and I never would myself. You are correct in saying 48 k...

OK thanks, that's fair comment. Me personally, and my studio is not equipped for surround sound. But I am not the only person who contributes to the site ( nor am I the site builder/maintainer). Surround is a possible road to look at in the future though I suppose, so thanks for making that...

Hello...hope you enjoy it here and find it to be a useful place to hang out.

Hello and welcome. Hope you enjoy it here, find it useful and stick around. Me?..I create music and do audio work.

I recently did some audio post on a TV series where I was rather surprised to find out they had used music from one of the "free sites" you had mentioned in your list........and I recognized the music from hearing it in countless other shows over the last 10 years. Ho-hum.

Would you prefer them at 48K or 96k rather than 44.1? All music and sfx are also available on there as 320kbps mp3, which are much smaller files but still sound good. The difference in sound between 44.1 and 48 is pretty much neglible, and if you need them at 48k it's easy to sample convert...

I shall do a bit of shameless promotion here for our site: http://rocksuresoundz.com Royalty-free music and sound effects for use in film, video, TV, gaming and other multi-media applications. Just a small point about some of the free/very cheap music sites mentioned in the above list. Be...

Was it reverb from a processor that was added, or "poor sounding room reflections" type reverb from the space where it was recorded? If it's from a processor, can you get the original track recordings off them without the reverb? If it's from the room itself, then that's not a good buzz from the...

Really your best solution is to get further away from your computer. Try and record in a different room by running extension cables if possible. Lavs are not the best choice for voice-over stuff really, but if you must use one then at least try and do some room treatment round where you are...

Just thought I would clarify a point from the original question "getting a copyrighted song"........just to note: All music found on the internet, be it "Free music" or "pay to download music" or whatever, is copyrighted. The moment something is recorded it is automatically copyrighted. Even...

That is totally the wrong way to look at this. You DO NOT WANT to record the noise of the computer to start with. Get the mic further away from the computer. Put the mic in another room from the computer via a longer xlr cable if you need to. Do whatever you have to do to isolate the computer...

Hey very cool. I watched "chapter 12 finally arrives" and thought it was well done. Good to see other New Zealanders on this site too!

Much of the affect of the scariness can be created by music, sudden clanging hits etc, and the clever use of reverbs and delays to carry small sounds at times too. As far as recording of the ambience goes, it is pretty important to have good mics and preamps too if you want it to sound the part...

The reality is that when Choosing And Using Music For Video you are bound by copyright laws, and as soon as you post something publicly if it has not been cleared for use, then you are breaching those laws. You therefore need to be aware that you run the risk of having the video removed from...

Here is a list of a few large diaphram condensor mics to check out. Some more expensive than others: Audio Technica AT4047. Available in cardiod and multi-pattern versions. Many fans out there. Audio Technica AT4050. Multi-pattern workhorse mic Rode NT2A. Multi-pattern and cost effective Rode...

Hey that's a great explanation I must say.
