Kyoto is so beautiful in autumn even when the sun isn't shining. Arigato gozaimasu for another great sound exploration video. That was a welcome change after four hours of sound editing. And now its back to work for another four hours 😀 Viele Grüße - Til.

Wow wow wow. What a stunning and tranquil/peaceful place. I wish I was there right now. Absolutely stunning. I loved the DPA's as usual, and also the sound at the end of the boats on the river. What a truly special place. Great sounds as usual Marcel, and lovely filming by Libby (also like usual). You two are living your best life and I'm VERY VERY jealous ! ;o)

Thank you so much Simon! You were technically present with us:) You can also take a quick flight from Zurich and be there in no time:). During the day, it's pretty busy and really enjoyable early in the morning before the tourists arrive.

Your videos are looking very professional now, I can see (and hear!) that a lot of good decisions were made in te editing process. The blending between the incidental music and the natural sounds was very pleasing to me, the pacing of the video was spot on and I love the composition and framing choices Libby has made. I was meant to be working, but for 14mins I was just very engrossed in this video XD. I think that even if you were not interested in sound recording and stumbled across this video randomly you would become interested very quickly. Thanks for giving us this glimpse of Japan, I have never been before so for me it was very interesting.

What a cute cat crying sound‼ Beautiful place Kyoto river water front and Arashiyama wasn't there ? Long time ago, I walked there toward banboo forest, too. I will try look again around my local place for field recording.
@FreeToUseSounds 10 ай бұрын
Hi there! I can only imagine how bustling Arashiyama must be right now. We were fortunate with our timing, but I heard from a friend that it was incredibly crowded just the other day. My best advice would be to visit either really early in the morning or later in the evening to avoid the peak crowds. Enjoy your time there! :)

Amazing!! I don't know if you know that, but there's a monkey park in Arashiyama, you were very close to it. Maybe you'd get some cool sounds from there as well. I actually miss some sounds from Japan - the sound of crows, the announcements in the trains, the traffic light's "be be boop - be be boop" sound when you gross the street, monks chanting etc...
@FreeToUseSounds Жыл бұрын
Oh yes this park was very close but we decided not to go. Maybe next time :). We have more videos coming up from Japan and we make sure to include these sounds as well

Lovely, lovely piece! Out of curiosity, how do you decide which configuration to use for a given situation? E.g., in this set of recordings, why not the VR / Rode mics? Thanks.
@FreeToUseSounds Жыл бұрын
Hello, Edward. Thank you for taking the time to watch our video. Good question, and to be honest, this is a personal choice that changes depending on my mood. But I wanted to bring the Schoeps for this trip because of the night sound recordings. But having the best microphones isn't always a good idea. In our next video, you'll see and hear what I mean. :)

Every time I look at your channel and beautiful places you visit and keep asking myself "how did Marcel decide it's a viable career". Meaning, doing the recording stuff on your own and knowing your future is secure. Do you have a Q&A about this, by any chance? 😅
@FreeToUseSounds Жыл бұрын
Hello, Mark! This is a great question, and to be honest, nothing in this world is secure. We just don't put much thought or putting a lot of pressure on us and just do the things that come to our mind. We do have a podcast series where we talk about our struggles and biggest risk. It wasn't always easy that's what we can tell you :)

Ah, you are so lucky living in Japan. We were starting to visit frequently on hiking trips when Covid hit, and now we are basically stuck in China. When things open up I'll be coming to Japan again. I recommend Ohara, not too far away from Kyoto. Beautiful place. Japan is so weird its phenomenal and beautiful. Ah, I see you're in Arishiyama, I thought I recognised it. That's really nice too... there are a few really decent Yizakaya's there. Oh, and the Japanese toilets... Fantastic!

Hi! Oh yes the Kyoto area is so stunning! We're 3 months in Japan and in about two weeks, we're using our 2 weeks Shinkansen pass to explore other parts of Japan. :)
@stuartleighton Жыл бұрын
@@FreeToUseSounds Make sure you head up to Hokkaido, absolutely stunning up there. Btw, a quick question about the X8. Do you find the rechargeable batteries when fully charged don’t appear as fully charged in the device? I’m finding this with my DR-05X too, so it’s probably crappy batteries.
@FreeToUseSounds Жыл бұрын
Oh yes Sapporo is on the list. The brown bears are hopefully sleeping by now :). No the bar is always full when using the batteries. Did you change the battery format in the settings?
@stuartleighton Жыл бұрын
@@FreeToUseSounds No I didn't. I ddn't know that you could. I'll look into this. Sapporo is nice but if you drive you can find some really nice places. I can't, but we used the trains to head around to Otaru, which is lovely and did a lot of walking around there. Loads of volcanos, it's phenomenal. Oh man, just need to get back to being able to travel internationally without it costing so much money. I'm flying home to UK in Dec and it's going to cost me GBP5000 just for the flight and testing alone. Madness. I'll check the battery settings. Chat soon mate, your videos kep me jealous, but sane.
