Porn audio

[BSB_WebMonkey]

Curious what you all think about audio in porn generally? Do you keep the volume up or down?

Over the years, music used to be in porn, no longer.

Curious.

It's really weird you should ask that question....I have a story

I usually have my earphones on so I keep the sound fairly low, and when I watched the Colin and Max scene I was expecting Clay to say 'So, today we have...' in his very sexy, low pitched voice. So I wasn't too worried what the volume was until...Colin moaned so loudly in my ears I'm sure I instantly lost partial hearing. The last thing I'd been listening to before that scene was music videos, and I do listen to those a bit on the loud side.

Every time I think about it I start laughing!

The sound on the Broke Straight Boys videos is not consistent, so if you don't start out with the volume up you cannot hear the guys responses to Clay. Once the action starts, you have to turn it down. My guess is that the microphone starts out across the room, then gets closer, and closer, and closer.......

i listen to all my porn with earphones on.
early in the porn watching days, i would turn the sound down, because there was either horrible music or the sound of a gal letting the world she was having sex.
since for me porn is about keeping the cock in frame and showing the cock in action for me the best porn on tape requires no sound.
i am a voyeur and as such prefer to watch sex rather the to hear it.
the sound should add to the episode rather than steal the show.
some verbalization distract from the episode and some contribute to the episode. Kodi and jason vs max and colin sounds.
if what the camera captures isn't good and the editing isn't even better, then adding sound want help.
brown chicken, brown cow!
although, i do like the chat which i listen to with the volume turned up the hear.

In general all porn with fake moaning and overacting, make me kill the audio. Better porn as on Broke Straight Boys, I listen with Sennheiser headphones.

To be honest, the sound does not have to be Dolby digital 5.1 for me.

Absolutely 100pc correct. This is one thing that could do with vast improvement is the sound quality. Half the time you cant either here Clay or the responses by the models. But don't put the mics too close to Colin or Kodi. LOL

 

[Buckeye1]

But don't put the mics too close to Colin or Kodi. LOL

I agree (without the laugh).

I have complained now for quite some time that the sound quality on Broke Straight Boys sucks! Period!

It is incomprehensible to me that in 2012, there are not better ways of capturing dialogue from Clay, as much as from the models. But, you always get either one, or the other, but never both. Some of us like the interviews, and we want to hear what is said, but that has always fallen on deaf ears. And while it seems better doing the actual sex, you still miss things are that often said between the models, while engaged in sex. Why is that? Is that such a difficult problem to fix? Seriously?

While for many forumites, the utterances between the models is of little consequence, because they are strictly voyeurs at heart, some of actually do enjoy hearing the models. For myself, I an very stimulated by the sounds and utterances during sex, I am stimulated by the auditory, as well as the visual. And that has always been a bone of contention for me here at Broke Straight Boys But then, I realize I may be the only one who feels that way, and since management doesn't seem to get that, I just learned to accept it. I am too vested in Broke Straight Boys to leave it for one sole reason, cause I can't hear.

JLipps, you are not the only one...

 

[rrhill]

Could you give a few example were the audio bothers you?

Name some video's to demonstrate your point. Like listen to this video at xx:xx (mm:ss) So we can make it concrete...

 

[Donner]

To be perfectly blunt about it, I have somewhat of a fetish for sounds in porn and ESPECIALLY the ones that are associated with GREAT cocksucking. I DO NOT mean the fake gagging sounds that we often hear on College Dudes but those graphic wet slurps that you hear that give an extremely accurate representation as to what a REAL blow job sounds like. This COMPLETELY does it for me and has been known to get me off with this. It gets me off in real life too by the way. A great example of this would be the sounds Kodi and Denver Grand and Dennis Tropp make while doing this. I have to include Blake and Ty in this list as well. I WILL go on record as saying that I absolutely LOATHE DETEST and CAN NOT STAND awful techno music in porn and even worse fake Euro style hisses and gasps. I hate those equally as much!! PLEASE keep the accurate cocksucking sounds in AND the flesh smacking during the fuck scenes!! Being a top man myself this ABSOLUTELY TURNS ME ON!!!

in my personal life i like real sound. in porn if the sound is part of the action, then it is good to hear. however, if the sound is part of playing to the camera, then no sound is better than fake sound.
the idea i have of porn is that as a voyeur all i get is a good performance. getting the neighbors to mic up or speak louder was never an option. they know you are there and give me a good performance. they show me what i want to see and if their words and sounds are clear and realistic, then i love being able to hear as well see. still if it does work for the eyes, then the ears will have trouble keeping my attention.
anything is better than the old days with that bad music or bad soundtracks.

 

[Youngandconfused22]

I agree totally. I love hearing that slurping and sucking noise it turns me on. I think it makes the scene way better. It's especially true for solos, when the model grunts and groans and moans its so awesome.

 

[deeteedub]

I like normal, realistic sounds. I don't like fake, overly obvious moaning or other types of sounds. I also don't like phony dirty talk. In other words, anything overly dramatic and over the top. Most of all, I HATE talking from a cameraman or director, or anybody other than the models once the action has begun. It spoils the voyeuristic, fly on the wall atmosphere.

I listen with earphones on like most people have stated so far. That being said, the only time I ever turned down (and off) the audio was whenever Darren was in an episode. I don't know if his sucking and slurping sounds were faked or not, but that boy made way too much noise. I bet if they're real, his neighbors probably get pissed off everytime he gives somebody head because he wakes them all up!

The funny thing that I've realised over the years is that I no longer like videos that have a music soundtrack. Studios like Falcon used to be one of my favorites, but I find that I can't watch them anymore because of all that background racket.

Anyway, that's my two pence worth ...

Donner, I call it "euro-bellowing"...

Sorry Web Monkey but you stepped on the cat on this one; there is just no kind way to say it the audio quality here SUCKS! I worked with audio for a living for many years and it always drives me nuts when I try to listen to a video here or almost any porn site for that matter. This especially when you consider how little it would take to correct the problem. First you would need to do a bit of sound insulating in the studio meaning to get rid of all the hard surfaces; use carpet on the floor and curtains on the walls and bring in some soft furniture and stuff to either absorb or break up the bouncing sound waves. Next get a small mixer and a couple of condenser microphones. You should use maybe a small lapel microphone on the camera man so we can hear his questions and then maybe a shot gun or other type of a condenser style microphone either on a boom held just out of camera view or even hung from the ceiling above the models. Put it as close as you can get it to the action without being part of the scene. Hook the mics to the mixer with phantom power to run them then patch the mixer into the camera and you’re done.

Imagine that! There is a fix!

Someone stepped on the cat on this one Denny? You can say that again...

Yet Broke Straight Boys has not expressed any intention to publish the soundtracks of their movies.

The devil hides in the details. Can you point out in some recent video's where the audio is inadequate for a porn video?

 

[BSB_WebMonkey]

I turn down the audio when I visit my favorite venue, just my taste i guess. Big imagination here. I still like photos over video. I love all the detailed member views and the reasons why. thanks for sharing.

Too late...
