LP Hell of Fame
« on: April 06, 2010, 06:22:50 PM »

I might be alone in this, but with when folks drop like five LPs at once, it makes me really hesitate to commit to the watch. There's this threshold of about fifteen+ minutes where it starts looking like this huge herculean hour-long task to get through them all.

It would be totally sweet if we had a thread where the HIGHLIGHTS would get reposted by someone who had seen them all. I mean Brentai's Godzilla and Descent LPs rock the house, but the ones surrounding them are A Dude Hells Of Complaining About Video Games which would've kept me away from the good bits had I not felt obligated to watch them all for assigning the man Buck Bumble for the N64

I disagree. It shows a lot of dedication to post an LP that takes a few hours to watch. It's especially good if you have someone hilarious at the microphone. At the very least, you have something to listen to while you're doing cross-stitch or whatever.

Frankly, I'd rather see more long LPs.

Hence the quotes on this forum. :)

Also, I agree with Kabbage in that LPs have a lot of fucking dead time. I've been thinking about this and it led to me cutting my Illbleed LP down from about forty minutes of footage to a tidy, sexy eight minutes and it massively benefited from it. The Retsupurae guys weren't kidding when they were badmouthing people who just tossed their LPs up on youtube without even watching them: you can ALWAYS improve your videos.

It's something I'd like to do more of, actually, so I might truncate more of my videos in future.

I'd just like to point out that I watch every minute of my LPs.

I usually don't have trouble with video since MWC is pretty good at not having too much dead space, but I usually spend 3 times as much time on editing audio, do to BREATHING INTO THE MICROPHONE JESUS FUCK and saying really really dumb things or stumbling on my own words too much.

Speaking of which, is their some sort of audio editing that can easily pick up the noise of air blowing into the mic? My problem isn't breathing as much as it is my terrible speaking habits where I blow air out of my mouth while making sounds.

DIY Popfilter

Others.


Although, I realize I'm probably the only person using a boom microphone to do this?

Man I'm using the mic of an almost 10 year old headset wrapped around my neck to do this, so I'm not really expecting the best from any of my recording sessions. I can make due with what I am doing right now, but it gets tiring to comb through 20+ minutes of audio for any points where air blows into my mic. I'm getting good at spotting them without audio, but sometimes stuff I will say will just be engulfed in noise. I'm sure eventually I will find a position to have my mic in that will result in optimal record quality.

Yeah the only real way to eliminate noise is to buy a better mic and learn to use it.

For the rest of us there's amateur charm.

Yeah, that's the ticket.
