It's always a happy day when I open up youtube and find a 16 minute video of Mark Mangini speaking about rain

This is the first time I am coming across a Mark Mangini video. Man what a legend! Supreme respect for his passion to get the best results. You can see how excited he is to talk about it. That only happens when you are super proud of what you have created and rightfully so. Big ups!

I’ve been holding towels over mics for years; love this little sonic umbrella! ❤

This seems like a great library! Texture/wetness is always the goal when I am cutting rain sounds. Especially in video games, rain is best when placed as 3d objects on different surfaces and material types, and then glued together with a quieter bed of the "noisy" rain wash as a quad amb.

Thanks for sharing Mark, great stuff.

This is very cool. Thanks. I'd love to know the specific mics he uses--what, for example, is the "8-channel mic" he sticks to his windshield inside.

TAKE MY MONEY!!!!
