I have the video studio set up now so I can run the audio through my good mikes and the board before going into the camera, in stereo! I can also do multi-image overlays. I just shot the first test videos with the new set up when I had to stop to deal with present circumstances. Will focus on getting more video complete before it i time to go, but have to get ready to go first. details in the web journal

the sound is horrible :\

really distorted

[brianthefolksinger]

@ofirharlev it is supposed to be, in that video I tried to push the sound to the very edge (and beyond) of the envelope of effects and distortion, not really my style. The demo series was trying to show sounds the electric was capable of, potentials that might interest people. There's also an issue where some folks find the videos have distorted audio, and others say it sounds fine. don't know why. How do the other vids sound? Will try recording the audio separate from camera, in the future.

I have no problem with the distortion. I think it actually sounds pretty awesome. I just would have liked a better audio recording, and one in stereo.

@brianthefolksinger gotcha :)
