It's rare to hear "this being said". Instead, you'll hear "that being said" because you're generally referring to something you just said, rather than something you're saying in the same sentence.
Examples:

"I know you're somewhat unhappy that I make more money than you, but that being said, you're certainly much better at saving it than I am."

There’s a little bit of a difference actually. It’s really subtle but it depends on context!
