Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you for your encouraging words!

That would be very strange if a wireless mic intentionally did mid-side recording! I primarily tested them with a single transmitter. I'm a little embarrassed to say that...I can't find my CM28s! My favorite wireless set so far, and I seem to have lost them. At least temporarily. I will test this out when I find them again.

Hi Matthew. Thanks for response - I hope you find them! The receiver has 3 settings, mono, stereo and MS (mid-side) - but via usb into my DAW, stereo behaves as mid side. With audio cable it’s fine!

Good advice! Thank for watching.

Glad you like it! DJI is the one major brand of wireless mic I've never had any experience with.

Thanks for watching! It’s a solid system.

Yes. The sound is slightly better and it can record internally. However, if you need really small transmitters, the Lark is a great way to go.

Hi! I'm not sure a laptop cooling pad is going to help. Yes, it will keep the fan from running quite so often or as loud, but probably can't turn the fan off. So there will still be times when it's running. Unless the cooling pad is somehow dampening the sound as well. The best solution is to a) get your mic as far away as the fan as possilble, and b) get your mouth as close as possible (without overloading it). I don't know what your particular use-case is, but that's generally a good solution for most background-noise issues.

@@MatthewHaines Thank you so much. I will try to implement what you just said.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks!

Thanks for your kind words! As for the K87 style capsule, I mentioned that to sE. I got the sense that they weren't really trying to duplicate the sound of the C414 (which in my mind is a good thing). Even though the mic body shape certainly seems to imply C414, these mics have their own sound. Thanks for watching!

The built-in headphone jack is stereo, but you're talking about the monitor outputs. They are six mono outputs that can be grouped as up to three stereo outputs. You group them as pairs, so you could have one stereo and four mono for example.

@@MatthewHaines Got it! Perfect, much appreciated :)

What does that mean?

Not sure what you mean by card. The sound quality is very transparent unless you have the EQ engaged, and then it has a distinct character that you won't find elsewhere.

Of course! But the "open box" got me.

Glad this was helpful! Boya makes good stuff in general.

@@MatthewHaines It was extremely helpful. Still figuring out things for making reasonable quality video's, but the big items are now off my list. Once it arrives I can start experimenting with OBS. :-)

I like the sound of the Neewer a little better, although it’s not a huge difference. The internal recording is a definite plus for the Neewer.

@@MatthewHaines Which one you suggest more?

@@sherintalkz Neewer unless you need very small transmitters.

Thanks! So far it's doing pretty well. Fingers crossed.

I agree, reviews are helpful. I do a lot of them! I just don't think they're the best route to building a channel (at least by themselves).

Glad it was helpful! Good luck with your channel!

I'm glad you found this helpful! Thanks for watching.

Not sure what you mean.

Awesome! Thank you. Good luck with your new channel!

Because RUclips loves you and wants you to succeed. :)

You are very welcome. Thank you for watching!

That's great! This must be on a different channel from the one you're commenting on?

@@MatthewHaines It certainly is lol. This is just my passive entertainment intake account. Though I'm unsure how to keep the momentum of these views/subscribers for future videos, cuz I posted another video afterwards that I also put a lot of work into and it didn't get the same level of traction as the big one. It did better than my videos normally would, but not as good as I'd think given the circumstance

@@unknownperson7708 I'm actually doing some research right now on small vs big channels and the volatility of their view counts per video. Larger channel have much smoother deviation between views on videos, which is probably because they have a large subscriber base who watch everything they put out. Smaller channels don't have that, so a few 'hit' videos account for most of the views. There's more to it though and I might do a video on this in the future.

You’re welcome! I appreciate you watching.

Not on this one. but the bigger CQ-20B has a couple of Hi-Z inputs.

@@MatthewHaines I suppose I could buy an active DI box for it.

If it's working, no need to fix it! Question for you: does the 80/20 rule apply to your channel? I've been trying to see if and when it applies to channels, both big and small. In other words, 20% of videos get 80% of the views. You put out a lot of videos so I would expect that number to be skewed somehow.

@@MatthewHaines Honestly, my channel is probably much closer to 90/10 or maybe even 95/5. One thing that has helped me though is because basically every one of my videos is a review (i.e. an ad) I have been able to charge money for most of the videos I make. Because of this I am able to create most of my videos and instantly make my money's worth back from the time spent on making the video. The product review space I think is definitely different from most other RUclips spaces in that regard.

@@GoTechGeek Interesting! So even on videos that are getting a couple hundred views, you're getting paid for them?

@@MatthewHaines Yes. A lot of the videos I do are specifically for Amazon though so agents / sellers are paying me to post my videos there then I cross post on RUclips.

Fair enough. Conversely, I can't see what everyone sees in Marques Brownlee, and he's got as many followers as Arun. Different personalities for different tastes! Thanks for watching.

@@MatthewHaines I watch some of Marques, I like his clean no nonsense approach, but my favourite tech youtubers are Flossy Carter and Dave2D, curious as to who's content you enjoy the most and anyone that's influenced your channel?

@@dreamingthelife I don't actually watch a lot of tech youtubers! At least not general tech. I watch Sara Dietschy sometimes. The only reason I follow Mrwhosetheboss is because of his production and editing, rather than the content. I just don't care about new phones. :) I do watch audio and video youtubers though, like Tom Buck, Obscure Mics, JesseDriftwood, Peter Lindgren, Dark Corner Studios...

Thanks for your comment! I can only imagine how hard it must be with young kids in the house!

That's all good advice! Thanks for watching!

​@@MatthewHainesOne more thing that might sound simple, is to just ask the viewer to subscribe (this has also been tested) and it works. I've subscribed to you 😊

I just tried a headset/lightning port adapter cable with the M1V series, and I can't get it to work on my phone. I think you need the phone-specific model, rather than the version aimed at cameras (which is what I have). They do include a TRS-to-TRRS cable if you have a dedicated input on your phone, but that doesn't apply to iPhones.

@@MatthewHaines Thank you for replying.

It's actually a Lauten Audio LS-208, but thanks! It's a condenser mic that behaves a lot like a dynamic mic in some ways.

One thing to consider is that movie reviews is a very crowded market. The barrier to entry is low, so anyone can do them. There are of course channels that are doing well on movie reviews, so it's possible. It will just take awhile to establish your channel.

Thanks!

It's a marathon, not a sprint! Try and get a little better with each video and eventually the views and subs will start flowing in. Maybe ask a friend to look at your channel and give their first impressions: thumbnails, titles, topics, editing etc.

Glad you liked it! I definitely took a risk on this one.

@@MatthewHaines You aced it bro !!

You're welcome!

I think it's about size and aesthetics. The mic is smaller than the H2N. But also, it's just nicer to have around. The Zoom is really ugly. Also, the noise reduction on Tula is pretty good, and it's written to a different file if you're recording, so you don't have to commit.

I've never used the E50! So I don't have any insight there. The E40 is very capable and a good bargain, but you're going to want a pop filter for dialogue. Like most condenser mics, it's very sensitive to plosives.

Good luck!

@@MatthewHaines THANKS❤❤

I record directly to camera when I'm using a wireless mic or on-camera shotgun mic. But XLR mics need a preamp and then it's a little tricky to get that audio into the camera's input. It's very easy with most video editing platforms to sync "good" audio with the scratch audio recorded with the camera's mic. This is even more important when - like in this video - there are two mics involved.

@@MatthewHaines thank you for your answer. I have a saramonic smartrig +, 2 xlr port, 2 levels. I am surprised nobody use this kind of solution. No sync in post but maybe it's outdated.

No they're not. But from what I've read re the DJI bluetooth sound quality, it's only good enough for phone conversations. Also, the price differential!

@@MatthewHaines but I can Bluetooth them to my imsta360 X4 so I’ve been told
