Hello, I have a question, doas the sony fx30 with tamaron 17-70 and dji rs3 mini fit well, I wanna get this combo but I don't know if it will fit well, because the maximum payload is 2kg and the camera with the lens ways about 1.5 kg, but 2 kg is the maximum payload, so it won't break after time the gimbal or if it fits at all well, so it didn't vibrate random??? Thank u, Nice Video
@RayOrtegaКүн бұрын
Thanks. I can't say cause I didn't use the Tamron with the gimbal, I used the Sigma 16-28 that is in the video and it worked very well. I'm not a fan of that Tamron, just because it feels kind of cheap but it still looks good when you shoot with it. Not sure how the weight of the Sigma compares but the gimbal seems really solid and handles that lens great but for your arm's sake, a lighter lens might be better ;)

For sure, that's a whole video on its own that I could make;) I definitely hear too many people getting too close to their mics and engaging the proximity effect which then comes out as just muddy audio which makes it very hard on the ears.

@Ray Do you know if it is possible to run an Elgato stream deck through a mixer if I were to use a usb-c to 3.5mm cable from the stream deck to the line in on the mixer? Basically in place of your iPhone used in the video.... I'm just curious about this as I don't know if it will function as the stream deck might need the software in order to function which would require having the usb directly into the computer as opposed to the mixer. Hope this makes sense.
@RayOrtega12 күн бұрын
You are right about the software being required. If you stop the software on your computer, it will tell you that the Stream Deck will not do anything. Essentially it's not a device that holds any music, clips or anything in it, it's just a controller that activates that stuff on your computer. You could however, just plug the output of your computer into the mixer and then your Stream Deck could be used to trigger any sounds you wanted.

@RayOrtega12 күн бұрын
@@TrickshooterTV no problem and now that I think about it more, it gets real tricky when you are trying to play computer sounds back through a mix-minus. The computer sounds will only play in the main mix which you don't want to send via mix-minus because the whole point is to not send SOME of the main. mix, you want to send some audio minus others. The main mix sends ALL audio. So typically what we have done is to use an iPhone, tablet or other computer to bring sounds into a channel on the mixer and then send that specific channel out of the mix-minus (aux) channel. With the Stream Deck, it will trigger sounds to play on the computer but those do not go into a specific channel on the mixer, they go to the main mix and this is why you need to bring the sounds in via another device. It all gets really confusing so I understand you asking followup questions! ;) Maybe the main question is why are you using a mix-minus? If you are bringing in another computer, your gaming computer is different than your streaming computer, then you'd want to put the sounds on the gaming computer and send those to the mixer on the streaming computer. I'm not really sure what your setup is so what I'm saying might not fit exactly with what you're doing but hopefully that's helpful.

Hi Ray can this be achieved using the Q802USB seeing as it doesn't have the Aux sends? I'm planning to use this for live streaming. I thought maybe splitting the headphones would be the better option at first but I don't like the idea of having audio from the game or people talking in game in one ear and hearing my own voice in the other war so I'm thinking this mix minus setup would be better for me if possible.

@RayOrtega15 күн бұрын
A couple different things to check. If you're getting too much noise and breath, it sounds like maybe your gain settings are set wrong. Are you using the auto function? If yes, try manual, if using manual, try auto. There may also be too much compression which could be bringing up the noise floor. Try without compression and also try with the noise reduction on. If it sounds like you're in a hallway, make sure the reverb is turned off. If it's already off then you're likely recording in a space that has too much reverb/echo and need to be somewhere else and/or you need to stay close to the mic.

Thanks for watching. What you hear in this video is pretty true to the mic. The level was only raised so that it's consumable here on youtube but definitely no limiting or heavy compression. Bringing up the audio has no effect on the native sound of the mic, if anything it also lets you hear if there are any noise floor issues. I used no EQ aka the flat option and did use noise reduction that the mic supplies because that is how I would use it and it's a built in feature of the mic.
@danielenstrom187318 күн бұрын
@@RayOrtega Good information, then what we hear is the processing that the microphone system applies. Yes noise reduction was strong. The noise gate cuts start and end of most words. To me it also sucks the lift out of the sound as well. All nuances and textures of a voice, meaning the fidelity, are also gone. Just a note. Røde have a similar problem. Damage control on their system is to set it at -21 och -24dB and gain in the camera instead. Then it is sort of usable.

@RayOrtega21 күн бұрын
I’d say no. Of course pops depend on the person who is speaking. Every one has a different level of plosive that they produce but this version has given extra room between the windscreen and the capsule which helps more than it did on the first version. It also depends on mic placement. If your plosives are heavy you’ll want to speak into the mic off axis at more of an angle.

Hi! Nice vid! I am a noob who learns fast. I skipped first-grade 😮. Problem is, I go straight to the end of the book because I want to solve the problem. I live in a noisy apartment. I have a U87 condenser for recording vocals. I can’t use that for KZfaq content I wanted something a tad better than my iPhone and I discovered a lot of people loving dji Osmo pocket 3. It has a wireless mic that sounds pretty good. Those mics that clip on are tacky. I’m like you in tacky department. I might put a piece of black electrical tape over the Sure thing if I buy this mic. So I see a lot of good things. I was going to drop $500 on the SM7B with installed pre-amp. I play and record music and it is like a fav for dynamics . So noise is something I need to address and it looks good on camera. The thing about the MV7 is I could use it directly into the camera anywhere and if I am playing guitar at the beach with my friend singing it seems a lot more practical than the dji wireless 🛜 . But - if I fear for recording vocals in my studio I may find myself wishing I just dropped the $500 on the SMB759879 - I am getting all these numbers mixed up 🆙 So that is me. I want to solve the end before I shoot my first video. Possibly because I am prone to buyers remorse. I don’t really know anything! I might find the dji wireless will be just fine for my first 59 videos because no one will see them anyway. There goes the broken AC sitting on my top floor apartment. Had I known it was going to be like this I would have paid more attention to money when I was younger and bought a house It’s July in Los Angeles! Tell me I’m crazy 🤪

Can't say for sure 100% but phantom power sends power down XLR cables, not 1/4" line or instrument cables so it doesn't sound like it would be an issue. Maybe more accurately, phantom power should not be going to the 1/4" inputs on the combo inputs you see on the L12, it should only be sending phantom to the XLR input when turned on.
