Room Ambience, Laughter, Clapping, etc...
When recording audio at a wedding reception, party, or any kind of event for that matter, I need to record room ambience when people are cheering on the person speaking for instance. I don't want to use my on cam mic because I want to try my best to keep room ambience seperate from the person speaking. So I was thinking about using a shotgun mic high on a mic stand, pointing towards the audience, with the low-cut filter on, facing away from the person speaking to capture just ambience. Does anyone use this method with good results?
Thanks, Eric |

Sounds good to me - that's what I do but I don't use the low pass filter as there's no point in doing that.

I theory it would work but in reality it wouldn't and you would get weird phase cancellations. For something to cancel out completely because of the phase being inverted, the two tracks must be exactly the same. Anything other then that and it will sound phasy and hollow.

Can someone tell me exactly what I need to do to get this reverse phase thing working in Premiere Pro 1.5 or Adobe Audition? I can't seem to figure it out.
Thanks, Eric |
