This is the latest addition in what is fast becoming the finest collection of high quality audio drumcorps parking lot videos. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the praise and encouragement, dabigorange!! Comments like this make it worth the time and effort it takes to do these videos.
Great video. Thank you. It brought chills and memories for me.
It is honestly hard to know whether a video turned out until someone says something like this. Thanks for watching and for marching previously!
Thank you so much for these videos! Fantastic work! What an incredible resource this is. I share these with my students quite a bit. I wish these were out when I was a kid! lol. Thanks!
Wow! Now that is inspiring to hear. Maybe you have some potential DCI or DCA performers among your students! Thanks for the compliments, and keep up your fantastic work as an educator!
The fourth note of that chord progression TUBAS!!!
I love this video!
Thaaank yoouuuu
Thanks, and you’re absolutely welcome! I must say, the Bb major chord that starts around 1:42 is one of my favorite sounds I’ve ever captured…puts a smile on my face every time. :] The bass, the overtones (and the delicate stacking?)… pure sorcery. All on opening night.
Such a GREAT hornline!
Outstanding video! please continue doing these!
Thanks Jordan. Hoping to have some content from this past weekend in Chester posted soon!
I completely agree w/ all the praise of your videos. This is one of my fave channels. Audio quality is astounding. Editing is also great and well thought out. I REALLY wish the DCI professional audio was this good.
When I started this channel, I wasn’t sure if anyone would actually notice or care about the audio. So I’m glad there are others out there like me that really do care!
Also, it’s good to hear positive things about my video editing, because video is not my area of expertise at all. Originally my goal was just to make sure the picture was good enough that it seemed to naturally fit the audio. But over time, I’ve come to believe that good video and audio together is what really what grabs people. So, I keep hoping to improve on the video side of things.
Thanks a ton for your kind words, and stay tuned for more coming soon!

You're welcome. Looking forward to more great videos! :)
Love the selections, especially the ballad from 2001. Great that they're all presented in their entirety. Very artistic and cool video editing. Awesome that you keep the camera on Gino and DM. Pretty damn close to perfect as far as DCI vids go!
***** Thanks! About the 2001 ballad, so glad I caught that. Had no idea they played that still. Awesome to hear something so "old school," yet almost exactly as it originally sounded (since they were already playing on Bb instruments back in 2001).
HornlineFanatic indeed!
***** Even though we stopped playing it a few days after this was recorded. Really glad we have a recording of this!
Fabian L, Guess this was a lucky catch! Thanks for playing!! You all really made my trip to Indy worth it, and were the first hornline I heard in 2014!
Any chance you'd be able to answer Elliot R's question? Wants to know what song is at 6:50.
HornlineFanatic That's simply a chord progression we played after one of the warm ups. We used to have one for every of the few exercises.
Vide Cor Meum sounds so good as a warmup!
Yes it does! :)
Came straight from Instagram for more of that Bb chord😝
I love that chord so much
Hey man, I'm really love your videos. They always seems so clear and the audio is fantastic. I was wondering what camera and mic (if any) you use.
+Donquai Crawley Hey thanks! For all my 2013 vids (and my 2014 USMC vid) I used a Rode iXY mounted to my iPhone 4S on a case I modified with some parts :) Fancy, I know. I really liked how that mic sounded, so when I wanted to finally get real cameras, I wanted almost the exact same thing...so I got the Rode Stereo Videomic Pro. I use 2 cameras (which I got in early summer 2014)...a Canon 5D3 and a Canon Vixia HF G30 camcorder. Usually I use the camcorder for filming inside circles, and the 5D3 for arcs. But it varies. This entire vid was shot with the 5D3 before I bought the camcorder.
wish i played brass :(
What equipment did you use for this recording? Did you have a mini-mixer to get the levels just right? Great job!
Thanks PRPhan! No special equipment like a mixer!! Just the Rode mic and camera.
Great quality! Is the song at 6:50 part of their warm-up, because I couldn't find it in their 2014 show?
Elliot R That's simply a chord progression we played after one of the warm ups. We used to have one for every of the few exercises.
What are the chords for that Bb chord progression I need to knowwwwwww
what mic are you using man?
I'm using rode mics but there are plenty of mics and field recorders you could use to get a similar sound.
What do you use on the audio side of things? I was thinking of bringing my zoom h1 out this year but am not sure it can handle the dynamic range.
Tim Kyle I am pretty sure your Zoom H1 can handle it. That thing can probably get better audio than I'm getting.
1. Make sure you are recording in a lossless format, either PCM or WAV. Yes, these take up a ton more space than MP3 and other compressed formats, but it's worth it. But based on your past comments, I believe you already know this.
2. Turn off the auto-level. Auto-level tries to adjust the recording volume in realtime, which kills the true dynamics of any music. Turn it off for the most natural sound, less background noise, and true-to-life dynamics.
3. Set your input-gain to a good level (or whatever it's called on the H1...maybe recording volume?). This is an iterative process. First, reduce it all the way to the lowest level possible, and try recording something loud. Yell into it up close. Clap right next to it. You'll be surprised what it can handle. Listen back to it. Was it a clean (and quiet) recording of your yelling and clapping? I'll assume yes. Now do the same thing, but with the input gain slightly louder. Listen again. Keep repeating this process until you have reached the point at which you START to hear clipping / distortion in the recording (when the waveform reaches the max peak size possible and literally gets "clipped" off). If you can get a clean recording of your yelling and clapping from, say, 1 foot away, you're set to record any hornline or drumline. How do I know this? Well, guess what causes the loudest peaks on most of my recordings. It's usually not the musicians. It's the crowd standing around me, clapping and screaming. They are the loudest sounds because of how close you are to them.
4. Get a windscreen. Any small wind will destroy your recordings without this. To prove my point, try recording with it while walking down a hallway. You can already hear the wind destroying the recording at walking speed. You can either get the foam kind or the furry kind. I have both...I can use the foam kind in soft wind, and I can put the furry kind over it in really strong winds. But there is ALWAYS enough wind outside to require some sort of windscreen.
HornlineFanatic Hey man, Thanks for the in depth response.
I definitely will be getting a wind sock in addition to the foam for the H1. I also have a Rode Lav mic which I can put on another camera to separately get crowd reactions.
I'm thinking of putting the 6d on a tripod + lav, and keeping it static and moving around with 5d. I don't do video much (professional photography) so this will be a fun project this summer.
If you are ever in Texas send me a msg!
Tim
Tim Kyle Very cool. I will say, I do use a Rode SVMP. The reason I use it is that I would not have had the time to sync all the audio on my videos if I used a separate recording device. The H1 is probably going to give you some amazing sound, but for sure, syncing the audio is really time consuming. Not only that, if you record for more than a few minutes, you're bound to get slight "drift" (since crystals on different devices are never perfectly in sync). Finally, the biggest caveat to watch out for is a 30 minute time limit on videos with the 5D. I even confirmed this with Canon, and tried it myself. It cuts off after 29:59. All because of some law (in Europe, maybe?) that outlines strict definitions for what can be called a DSLR or a camcorder. This 30 min limitation is apparently true with most DSLRs. And if the sensor is overheating, the frame rate may drop, and it may cut the video off sooner. So, for sure, DSLRs are definitely not camcorders. So, the safest thing is really to just stick to shorter videos with the DSLRs. I think the longest thing I have recorded with my 5D (in the hot sun) was a full Cadets run through...the vid was maybe 15 min total.
Texas! Well, depending on the show, maybe you'll see Zach Ashcraft around there! If you mange to get some killer vids, maybe I'll link to them on my page!
HornlineFanatic Awesome man, I'll definitely hit you up if I get some great footage.
One thing I have had success with is syncing the start and finish times with clapping. Then I will stretch the audio to match the start and finish and that seems to work somewhat ok.
The record time is a pain in the butt, and maybe magic lantern helps with that? Good thing the parking lot is mostly short blurbs.
