Come along for the ride as I test microphones to capture engine audio on the Continental GT. Verbal POV audio was captured using a Sean 20s intercom boom mic . Engine only audio was captured with a Rode Wireless Go 2.
Well; I really enjoyed that. Just watched on my I phone; this vid defo needs to be watched on my 65 inch telly. The GT sounds awesome, luv it. I have just installed a pair of Hitchcocks slash cut slip ons to my Interceptor; my god it’s like riding a new bike again. Luved the vid; hope the trial was successful for you and thanx for sharing. Ride safe Neil from England.
In Scotland Glasgow is pronounced Glezga😂.The letter e is pronounced as eh.I live 25 miles west of Glezga in Gourock,across from the Holy Loch.Your bike sounds epic and your tarmac is smooth,unlike our roads that look like they've been carpet bombed.
Except for a couple glitches, the wireless is surprisingly good. I would probably use both at all times with the boom mic for your voice and the wireless for everything else for the purpose of editing. For instance, you could bring up your voice and turn the background noise down when necessary.
After I got home my old wireless setup decided to start working again, I might go back out today and record with that setup and post the vid so you guys can hear the difference. That setup allows me to run 2 mics at once and tune one for voice and the other for the bike sounds. If it continues to work Im going to be p*ssed that I wasted $200+ on the Rode setup as money is a bit tight at the moment.
Your Enfield sounds Fresh Voodoo. That Road wireless go2 was not as crisp as your first setup. The tidbit about the Ducati explains your admiration for your bike model. ( minus the crash site you keep passing) I figured you really "moved on up to the east side", when you went from the grom to the cub then to the 650. ( 1100...holy crappola) That riding pass will be beautiful when the leaves come out. Watching the reflection of the tree's in your shiny gas tank was cool. Hard work keeping that Stud looking slick I bet with no garage or carport.
I bought that Duc SS1000 because of how much I liked the Monster750 I had prior,... and of the 2 I still prefer the Monster. The Continental GT brings a sense of familiarity of the original Monster line.... without the absurd maintenance costs of Ducati- a 4v Ducati valve adjustment costs as much as what I paid for the Continental GT! Im going to try and post a followup to this video as my old wireless setup just up and started working again and we'll get to see the same run with a 3rd audio setup. Im trying to get this nailed down before the riding season fully kicks in.
I gave up on wireless mics for motovlogging. I use a purple panda hard wired to the camera. My biggest concern was moisture getting to the wireless mics. I hope you get it sorted.
I have a purple panda but I’m trying to capture the bike sound, it overwhelms all of the plug in mics I’ve tried. The wireless mics have reducible gain so I can tone down the engine sound level. I assumed Rode would be a superior product to my old setup that actually performed well, I got that wrong.
That boom mic is a "Sena 20s attachable" made for intercom systems, I have it rigged up to be able to plug it in to my camera. Its not wireless but can be used in conjunction with a wireless setup. That's why I said it's mounted in that helmet semi permanently, it's a total rig job and not "plug and play" but it's actually the best mic I've been able to find. You have to source a female 2.5mm TRS to female 3.5mm TRS adaptor to make it work and tape all connections down to make sure nothing can move or you'll get noise from the connections. My Hollyland Lark up and decided to start working again after I filmed this video... Im going to go back and film a couple more runs with the Hollyland setup and I'll post the video as a followup so you guys can see the difference. (if it continues to work that is)
@@UncleVoodoo Thank you for the information. I’ve been wanting to outfit a modular helmet with a boom mic. I think I’d seen the Sena on Revzilla’s site before but thought I wouldn’t be able to make it work, you’ve proven it can!
@@spencerhodges3950 all isnt roses with my hero 9, it overheats if I use the onboard batteries. So I have to run direct power to it from a power bank in my backpack (no batteries in the camera)
