BOYA BY-WM4 PRO-K2 lavalier microphones - Follow-up 

Thank you so much for your kind words. I hope to put more videos out this year. Last year was a strange one. Take care.

😂😂 But the two of you are my bestest friends in the world.

Thank you Karen. We need to watch out for Violet and warn other RU-vidrs that they could be bombarded with endless support!! We enjoyed making the video and have said we should do more together.

As Patrick Swayze once said... “Ditto” ❤️❤️❤️

You are so right, Chris. And by the way - I plan on getting a niche. Mongolian throat singing. It’s a work in progress 👍

Lol. You do make me giggle. I dabble at Mongolian throat singing only for fun - trying to copy what I hear. It’s hard and I can’t maintain it so It comes and goes. But I get the principle... I think. Don’t know if I am brave enough to share on my channel though. But you never know 😀

Many thanks for your feedback. That’s useful to know.

Hi Ted. Thank you for your comment. A slight slip of the tongue. I should have said speak over rather than overwrite. You hear both voices. But it’s like when I hear people on the radio being interviewed and it gets heated and they start talking over each other and don’t let the other talk - not great to listen to. Hope that helps.

@@ChristopherAlbone Great! Thanks!

Thank you so much. I really appreciate your comment. All the best. Chris

Violet - you are so sexy when you talk tech 🥰🐓👍

First in again, V. Thank you. I am so pleased I made you smile. I can get a bit quirky at times when I get excited. Regarding the lag, this was the opposite, video first then the audio. Regarding your highly technical question... 32 😜. But in all seriousness, most mics should work with the transmitter. Did you notice how good the Rode Micro sounded compared to the lavalier? But you can't wear it of course which is the point of lavs and why we occasionally need them.

😂😂😂 Not as sexy as chris with his hair on that previous boya video 😍🤣🤣🤣

Actually the rode sounded like a podcast mic. I did not wear headphones but i am going to watch again with headphones on. The difference is day amd night. Pitty the other mic is powered because that would have been a very cool way to do an overhead rig. Have you tried it on an audio interphase with phantom power of 48v? I think it will sound amazing. 32 on the transmitter is amazing but i guess you need 32 belt sets then... Ka-ching! ££££

You say all the right things!!! 😆

The two mini tripods I have are the Manfrotto Pixi mini tripod and the K&F Concept mini tabletop tripod. The manfrotto is fine for lighter cameras but the K&F can hold up to 15KG and will not move once set. Is great for larger cameras with big heavy lenses. Hope that helps.

Hi. Yes I adjusted it slightly in post. At the start of the video, I put some text up to show what I did to tweak the audio. Also, for this second video, we wore the mics in the proper position (on the sternum) whereas if the fist I put it on my hoddie collar. I think that also made a big difference.

Hi Noel. Great question., The realme C12 has a 3.5mm audio jack. The Boya comes with 2 cords - 1 for cameras and one for phones that will work with your phone. I hope that helps. Salamat.

@@ChristopherAlbone thanks sir godbless.salamat

I prefer the sound of a shotgun mic over a lav one so will use a shotgun when i can. I am using rechargable AAA batteries and they last ages. I couldn't tell you how long they last for exactly.

@@ChristopherAlbone Thanks Chris.🙏

As in the video, you can plug other mics into the transmitter to send the sound to the receiver. So maybe you could plug a dynamic mic in but I am not 100% sure. What noise were you getting? Ambient noises, interference?

The mics that come with the kit are omnidirectional so they are going to pick up some ambient noises. Also meant to ask, what situation are you using them in?

Hi Alen. I assumed the line in would be for another audio source but I too have wondered why I would use this. I will have a look and have a play and will let you know what I find. I have just looked at the Saramonic mics. They have good reviews. Do you like them?

@@ChristopherAlboneThank you for your time and help so far. And yes. By far I'm very pleased with the quality and of Saramonic Blink 500 B2 setup . The cons for me are: 1. No headphone output on the reciver so I have to plug in the headphones right into my camera 2. Not that long distance range. It can handle up to 17m or 50ft reliably. (Boya has longer range) 3. No display to measure the intensity both on the transmiter and reciver. It only has two buttoms for volume up and down on each transmiter (so you can set different intensity on each transmiter) and there are 4 levels. For example Rode Wireless GO setup has a display both on reciver and transmiter so you can see the volume in db while recording. You can also do that right in the camera but I consider it to be more confortable to have these option on both the the setup and camera. Pros: 1. Portability, size, shape 2. Price compare to Rode Wireless GO you get two transmiters with lavaliers for only 40€ extra 3. Transmiters both have inbuilt omnidirectional mics. That's all. Bye

@@alenimamo9050 that’s really useful to know. Thanks for taking the time to make your points. Am sure others will read it too.

I am pleased you had a look to see the difference from your perspective. Is much appreciated - always good to get a second opinion.
