I'm an audio guy, and I often watch these simple audio videos if I see them in my feed. I mostly watch them to make myself angry of the stupid things people say in those videos and the bad advices they give. But this is golden, easy to understand, not oversimplified, and also pretty fun.

@EricWhite 5 лет назад

Does plugging a boom mic into a sound recorder make the sound better in post?

@ichbrauchmehrkaffee5785 5 лет назад

Depending on the preamp, most likely. I guess most handheld recorders have higher quality preamps built into them than the cameras. There are obviously differences between certain brands and price ranges. What I believe to be the case (but i have no prove for this) is that mics with the XLR-connector (the 3-pin plug) have the potential to be better in sound quality, as the mics used in pro sound studios pretty much exclusively connect via XLR. You can actually often get an XLR-preamp, that plugs into your camera.

@ichbrauchmehrkaffee5785 5 лет назад

@@LuLeBe I know about balanced signals, thanks. Yes, it could be technically possible. I'm not saying the quality is dependant on the connector. But as far as I'm informed, the really high quality stuff for Studio use (like Neumann U47, Akg mics, Audio Technica, Lewitt etc.) mostly use the tank-like XLR connector, whilst mini-trs is commonly used for smaller mics like lav-mics, headsets, any scenario, where XLR is too big. Not that I'm saying, thoses are crap, but I wouldn't use a lav mic to record drums or accoustic guitar or singing vocals for that matter, that's were I would grab an XLR-mic, not because of the plug, but because of the mic. For video though, depending on whether I'm indoors or outdoors, I might consider one over the other

Nice overview guys. One thing I didn't hear mentioned was how shotgun mics aren't often the best option for rooms that are very "live" with echo. A cardioid might be the better option. I know it's a full topic by itself, but talking about room treatment can be as helpful as choosing the right microphone. Having a few sound blankets on hand is often a lifesaver in echoey rooms.
