Behringer Flow 4V - How to make your first recording

Our sound and lighting courses can be found at https://school.learnlightandsound.com!

In this week’s video, we have a look at the Behringer Flow 4V field recorder and walk you through how to make your first audio recording with it! The Flow 4V has an awesome feature set and some very interesting use cases that we’ll examine throughout a series of episodes releasing over the next few months. But first, let’s jump into the basics!

We also did a first-impressions livestream about the Flow 4V last week, which you can find here: https://www.youtube.com/live/afl2MJRb...

If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. Our latest courses cover Sound for Live Streaming with the ATEM Mini and an Intro to Izotope RX. See https://school.learnlightandsound.com for more info!
