Sound Design Trick - EQ Above Audible Range

[@beacomedian]

healthy

[@DanielBastionMusic]

This is super helpful! I just got some ultrasonic mics (the SO.4 from sonorous which also use the Primo EM258 capsules though they state their frequency response goes up to ~70kHz). Do you think it's worth recording in 192kHz sample rate or is that still overkill since these mics only detect 1/3 of that range? I feel like 96kHz is probably fine for these.

[@noahsitrin9823]

Depends on the recording subject and how noisy your mics are (one of my em258 capsules is noisier than the other), but definitely worth a try

[@DanielBastionMusic]

@@noahsitrin9823 How are you able to get RX to show up to 70k on the frequency scale? I cannot get mine to go above 48000, even though my soundcard is at 96kHz and my files i'm working on are recorded in 96kHz. I've zoomed out and tried to type in the range "96000" but it stays at 48000. I'm on RX 11 Advanced

[@DanielBastionMusic]

Nevermind just realized 96kHz is 48kHz for each channel, a 192kHz does show the same range as yours

First! Love your vids, Noah :)

[@MrSolcys]

Do you like this Promo mics? I got one but I haven't use it yet

[@jacksteiner1034]

make more videos :)

[@ChromeArray]

Cool! But, why would you want/need to boost up there?

[@nadpher]

I think it’s so that when it’s pitched down it keeps high frequency content

[@ChromeArray]

@@nadpher Ahh... Of course! Thanks!

[@noahsitrin9823]

@@ChromeArray yup, pretty common to varispeed pitch stuff down
