Welcome to your little, safe space where you can learn chess and relax. Today I will teach you a chess secret that you can use to beat your dad and even your mom (I know, crazy right?).
You can support the channel and help me make more videos on / asmrchess
I learned this secret from the amazing Judit Polgar and her three friends: Plato the Panda, Octavia the Octopus and Pandora the Puffin! The game we look at is between Judit Polgar (white) and Pavlina Chilingirova (black), played in the 1988 Chess Olympiad. Find the PGN below.

I'm autistic and I really like it when adults speak to me like this. It makes me feel safe, and I'm less likely to think they're mad at me or judging me. It's comforting being spoken to in an "infantalized" tone for me, even though I'm graduating from high school this year. I act younger than I am often, so that probably contributes a lot

Something about this childlike vibe pairs so well with ASMR and educational content, and you pulled it off flawlessly for an entire hour! It reminds me of when you make the pieces talk - super cozy and relaxing. I hope this comes back in future :D And what a gorgeous mix. It's super bassy without being so resonant that it becomes pitchy/piercing. I think there's also some subtle stereo variation in the lower mids that adds that vibration-y feel that is *the* ASMR secret sauce for lower voices - I imagine you don't normally record your voice in stereo, so I wonder how much of your voice is coming in through the shotgun mics.

@ASMRChess 3 ай бұрын

The mix is different in this one in that I’ve been able to target same crucial frequencies in the stereo pair of shotgun mics with the EQ and bring them down so they don’t get in the way of my voice coming through the third mic.
