Although I appreciate that most regular viewers, find the audio pretty good, there is always room for improvement. This was my first time using a Zoom H1N audio recorder, fitted with a deadcat, which I positioned in the tail bag. The intention being to enhance the sound of the Royal Enfield Classic 350, but still enabling my voice to come across nice and clear. I would be grateful if you could let me know what you think in the comments section, please be honest. Next time, I will try it without the deadcat.
Today we take a ride on my Royal Enfield Classic 350, on a little lane from Hutton Roof, to the A65 near Kirkby Lonsdale, then take a right turn, heading back towards Whittington. Then we take another back lane, returning to Borwick. We encounter, some pretty green countryside, take an excursion onto what is essentially a "Green Lane" (an unkept road, though it is hard to tell nowadays), with a large puddle, and a rather slippery downhill section !

Nice to see you out and about, Ian. 👍 Delightful ride again, though with those high hedgerows, it's sometimes like riding with green blinkers on! Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. They just serve to show the rest of the world what we're missing, as does the wonderful British weather! 😁 That cyclist was being deliberately obstructive.

Thanks Neil. Audio is good but improvements can still be made me thinks 🤔. Adding the separate audio track from the Zoom mic, does take up quite a bit more time in editing, but I will preserve a bit longer.

Hi Ian, an enjoyable ride along some interesting 'roads'. Some cyclists are absolute prats with no courtesy or consideration, and they're the ones who moan most because other road users don't respect them. The audio recorder is working fine, just a little bit muffled. You could probably sort it out with some EQ but if it's in a bag you shouldn't need the DeadCat, you've already said your going to try without. I had mine in my humpback map pouch for my trip west and it worked ok except it picked up too much noise though the seat because the bag was packed with heavy tools. I decided to get a new Tascam DR05X so I'm going to try the old one in a pocket and different mounting positions for the new one. I've found it saves a lot of time in editing, much easier to get better voice and engine sound with separate recordings. Cheers, Mick
@ianhughesroyalenfield
@ianhughesroyalenfield Месяц назад
Thanks Mick. Agree on the Lycra loonie 😂. Yes, I think it was a bit muffled too. I literally took some settings from another chap on RU-vid as a base point, and put it in the pocket in the lid of the bag. It picked up movement of the bag going over bumps, and the handles of the zips. Next time, I will take more care, and strap the bag down properly 🙄😂. One of the main reasons for trying to work with the zoom, is for taking demo bikes out, which haven’t got as loud an exhaust as Clementine. So I may look to getting some kind of bum bag for those occasions, or, if they have a removable seat hump, stick it in there 😉

@ianhughesroyalenfield Месяц назад
Thanks ice. There are a few vids on the subject of using the zoom in RU-vid land. The best results are by putting the mic under the pillion seat, but as I can’t do that, I used the tailbag. Tbh, only time will tell if it is worth the extra time it takes in editing. I can’t believe there was still a couple of instances where the helmet mic was clipping, a bit strange, considering it didn’t do it on the RE group ride on the Interceptor, at faster speeds 🤔. On the OA4, can you record into the camera from two Mic 2’s at the same time ?

Nice ride Ian! Sound was good, looking forward to the next one without the dead cat. If you're going to keep finding lanes like that maybe get some trail tyres! Bruce at Coastrider Scotland speaks highly of the Heideneau K60s for his Classic on the roads he uses and they cost under £200 the pair and seem to last well.

Hi Andy, yes the Heidenau’s are really good, it was me who put Bruce onto them, as I had them on a Honda CRF250L. Bruce was originally looking at some knobblier ones, but I said they would rattle his teeth out 😂. When Clementine’s tyres need replacing, I will be going down that route 👍. Just need the rain to bugger off so we can get out again. You wouldn’t believe how hard it rained just after I returned home 🤬😂 Cheers

@ianhughesroyalenfield
@ianhughesroyalenfield Месяц назад
Set up is….DJI Osmo Action 3, with DJI mic adapter, and Cheap Amazon laptop/notebook mic in helmet. I was using the DJI lav mic, but I was getting too much clipping. The Zoom H1N, with dead cat, is in a pocket in the lid of my tail bag. To me it sounds a bit muffled, hence why next time, I will try without the dead cat. I watched a few RU-vid vids on using the zoom for on motorcycles. One is called The Schaaff (?) method, which I might try as well. Syncing was a bit of a pain, but I turned everything on before setting off on the bike, then pressed the horn 3/4 times, to make editing easier. Hopefully that will get better over time, but this was my first attempt. Cheers
@BulletBeena
@BulletBeena Месяц назад
@@ianhughesroyalenfield I’ll have to check out the Schaaf method. I’ve got an Osmo Action 4 and I’ve just been using the inbuilt mics for ambient sounds, which is ok but it’s hard fighting the wind noise so I’d rather have a separate mic behind me to cut it out altogether.
@ianhughesroyalenfield
@ianhughesroyalenfield Месяц назад
@BulletBeena the built in mics have no chance coping with the wind noise created by motorcycle use. You definitely need another option. Having the OA4, you could buy a Mic 2, which connects wirelessly to the camera without the need of a receiver. It’s certainly a good starting point, and if you do find you would like to introduce more exhaust note, look to the zoom h1n from “Bax Shop”, they have them on offer at the moment. There are loads of vids on the Mic 2 😉.
@BulletBeena
@BulletBeena Месяц назад
@@ianhughesroyalenfield No the internal mics aren’t great. I bought a mic cover for the camera and I use a piece of cardboard to cover the mics as well and it kind of works ok. Would rather have something better though. I have looked at the DJI Mic 2 but someone told me that it doesn’t always connect straight away when you do a quick record, which is not great.
