using in ear, asmr mics for live gong productions.
By: The Dudely Lama Date: March 31, 2021, 8:39 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
you know ive been experimenting with asmr recording, but i
wanted to take it to the next level... to produce a true total
surround sound experience, live, real time, for up to, say...
50 people or so... and i believe it’s been realized. my
first test subject, my eldest son, was able to tell when i
turned my head, and the location of the gongs being played, in
correct spatial proximity! i need to repeat the experiment
with fresh, educated ears...
i remember the who trying to do live quad sound... pink floyd
doing live surround sound, kinda sorta... and it was expensive,
intensely labor intensive and a techs nightmare. and this dumb
hillbilly is quite possibly reproducing true, 3-D sound using 2
qsc k8’s, a yorkville elite sub, a yamaha stereo 12 channel
mixer and two microphones that fit inside my ear canal... its
scary effective at reproducing the conditions for binaural
pulses, or “beats”... josh, my eldest, freaked because he could
feel the pulse... sitting inside his camry, in the garage... he
said he thought wtf? earthquake?? oh wait... dad...
im excited! this could be a lot of fun!

it excites me to do something other than what the clones are
doing... the gong community is very similar to other musician
groups... or just humans in general... “beatles covers are
selling well, so i must learn more beatles tunes...”. and soon,
thats all one hears and everyone wonders why the local scene is
so boring and everyone sounds just like everyone else... we
become interchangeable cogs with no individuality... nothing
that sets us apart from the next swinging time signature looking
for a gig... gong pilots are no different it seems...i see
more folks worried about getting fingerprints on their
instruments and more time spent polishing and arguing petty
personal agendas than learning or exploring new techniques and
basic playing skills. i see peeps spending outrageous amounts
of money on gear and wardrobe... all the fixin’s but no idea
wtf to do once they get all gussied up in their silk kimonos and
picture perfect video set, but as soon as they pick up a mallet
you realize they’re clueless, witless dullards that read a
recipe on google and feel theyve become a world class chef...
the same guy that sees slash or some other hollywood-esque clone
on stage and buys a marshall stack, fender strat, leather biker
gear and a wig and three days later is auditioning for the lead
guitar in your band... ummmmm, nope! mtv stars... got
all the moves just dub in a track...
gong forums are no diff from guitar forums... gear snobs
without a clue... clones of gear snobs wandering without
realizing clues are necessary... peeps that are just flat out
full of shit arguing pointless, meaningless nothings and then
the 43rd dimensional light workers from planet niburoid start
channeling guru gong phat about which piece of fucking road
gravel you should place under your left testicle to open your
woodchuckras... theres actual, physical science as foundation
for sonic therapy. repeatable, documented proof of specific
physical and mental responses to vibration that can have great
therapeutic effect on us and our environment. but its both
destructive and generative energy, no different than anything
else... meh, its early and im rambling on about nothing much...
took my bp pills, time to finish my morning meds...

I enjoy your threads. I can barely manage 200 words in a row.
There’s always interesting turns of phrase, new things. “Gong
Pilots” indeed!
Can totally relate to the cork sniffers you alude to in forums.
That’s what finally turned me off to The Gear Page. You just
know there are peeps there googling the hell out of things
before replies in order to sound learned.
