My July 2025 SFX Swap - Part 2 - Video Breakdown

Ok as promised here is Part 2 of My July SFX Swap  - with a full breakdown video of what I recorded, how, and even isolated mic sources. 

  I used four microphones to record and create the mixes / sounds you hear in the video. I used my forever favorites. Rode NTG3, Rode NT5, Earthworks Sr20 and my AKG C411 Contact microphone right on the gear housing. The original plan was to also submit all the separate mic stems / tracks with this submission. But I ran out of time and submitted 15 tracks with a lot of sounds inside of them. I did end up finishing and exporting all the separate mic recordings after the deadline so maybe I will release them later. 

  Everything was recorded into my Zoom F8 field recorder at 192khz, 24 bit. Edited in Reaper with Waves and izotope plugins. Then exported at 192kHz 24bit with UCS naming and Meta data. 

  The Boat Wench / Crank itself needed a custom holder so it would stay up on my foley stage. So I made something and added a rock hopper so I could add weight to keep it from falling forward.
