An awesome video as per usual, Brian! 😆👍👍 As ever, I appreciate you for taking the time to highlight the best way to get highest quality audio possible, especially if you're wanting to use the baked in method as opposed to editing and syncing the audio & video in post-production. ☺👌 Personally, I'll always opt for the recording externally then syncing and editing in post 99.9% of the time, however, even with that being said, I'm sure there'll be occasions where the baked in method come come in handy. 🎧📷🎤 Cheers to you, my man! 🍻

Also I am thinking of getting the sennheiser mk600 and use it all together. Probably I will sync as it sounds so much better. But thank you!

Baked-in actually sounds better, but it's just because you didn't adjust the raw wav volume to match the loudness of built in audio. The 1-stage audio data-compression trick is super cool, thanks!

@globalmolecule 2 жыл бұрын

yeah, well it sounds richer but actually the flatter signal of the uncompressed is the better signal because it can be worked better. But I hear you I like the baked in sound too, but his point was it was the raw file, that can then be produced in post to make you sound like god.

@Audio for Content Creators So does the H5 have phantom power? Also, if I am understanding you correctly, I want to use a Rode NTG4 shotgun mic for streaming, and after watching this it seems as if my audience won't hear any difference between the Rode and a $30 lav mic from Amazon? BTW I am on a gaming laptop and I could hear a huge difference between your audio A&B tests. The baked-in audio actually had more bass, but it sounded almost clipping and the highs were not as defined.

Hey I have a question about Zoom! I’m trying to create a professional but simple videoconferencing setup. My thought is an A6700 with 4K USB streaming with a H5 interface connecting to a MKE 600. So then everything just comes out of camera, no need for a USB audio interface, making it easy to move the setup as needed. I’m worried about the compression effects you mentioned at the end, will USB streaming from camera still compress to AAC?

@bingbang9643 Жыл бұрын

what about an XLR female to 3.5 male directly from boom to the camera, using NTG4+ cuz it has self phantom power.. would it be similar quality as the zoom method u showed? all the zoom is doing is giving phantom power right? the rode NTG4 + has a -10 db button option so I'm guessing is not optimal but it might work.? asking cuz I have to cover a small event with 3 handheld cameras and I'm already using a dedicated on camera mic on 2 of them but buying a new one just for this job is not worth it. or am I better off recording audio directly from the GH5, without anything attached? Thanks a lot
