Each episode we talk with location sound mixers, boom ops and other industry pros about the various aspects of recording sound on-location for feature and independent films, TV commercials, interviews, anytime where dialog from actors is recorded. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran or just starting out, this podcast is packed with great stories and lessons about recording on-location.

I love a good book about sound design or other aspects of the audio post industry. Think of this episode as a summer reading guide for the audio nerd. The authors of 3 recent publications about sound, get together to talk about their books, how they decided to write them and how to best use them as resources. Emi Paternostro talks about his book ”The Pro Tools Post-Audio Cookbook”, Gina Zdanowicz discusses ”The Game Audio Strategy Guide” that she co-wrote (with Spencer Bambrick) and both Andrew Knight-Hill & Emma Margetson are here representing their book ”Art of Sound: Creativity in Film Sound and Electroacoustic Music”

Och kanske kan den kunskapen hjälpa yrkesfiskare att skrämma bort denna storätare

Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play.

Sälar som förstör redskap och äter upp fångst är ett stort problem för yrkesfiskare. Hösten 2023 påbörjades därför ett treårigt forskningsprojekt som handlar om att ta fram en ny sorts sälskrämma. Det är Eva-Lotta Blom, marinbiolog vid SLU i Umeå, och Örjan Johansson professor i teknisk akustik vid Luleå tekniska universitet som arbetar med att utveckla en fungerande skrämma. Dagens skrämmor skickar ut ljud mellan 10-15 000 hertz men ny forskning visar att sälarna hör långt över det och nu arbetar Eva-Lotta och Örjan med att hitta rätt frekvens för att skapa maximalt obehag utan att skada.

Ljudvärld möter de båda för att prata frekvens, morrhår och hur man hanterar ljud i vatten.

After 10 years and 400 episodes, our friends at Switched on Pop decided it was finally time to revamp their outdated theme song. In this episode, they take us inside the chaotic, hilarious, and surprisingly emotional process of making a new one. Along the way, they get brutally honest feedback from top music critics, craft over a hundred layers of swirling synths and cinematic sound effects, and even get some sonic strategy from our very own Dallas Taylor.
