Thank you, this is very helpful! What a professional production!
Thank you! We have 6 new tutorial videos coming soon. Stay tuned.
Very useful, thank you!☺️
This was very helpful, thank you
Very well done!
Purchased it a week ago,,, hope it will fulfill my requirements
Very informative and helpful. Thank you. 👍
Thank you! We have 2 new tutorials in preproduction. Hope you like those too.
Subscribed to the channel striving with really good content for audio-video making. Thanks. Wonder why RUclips can't suggest or recommend such a content but rather would put some crap content in the recommended section. It's bad that I had to follow this video from an ad.
Keep an eye out for more content like this coming.
Thanks for sharing miss because I need it very much
Glad you like it. We have more like this coming in 2022.
That strain relief section was hopefully just what I need. Got to test it out tomorrow 🤞
Amazing video I really enjoy your awesome video.
Thanks so much. We have a few more of these planned. Be sure to subscribe for alerts of new videos.
Really it was very useful video
Thank you
Thank you Ganesh! We really appreciate the kind words and are even more glad you thought the video is useful. Best regards.
Really great videos! Question, though: Why is your video on Hiding Lavs marked as 'for kids'? It makes viewers unable to save the video to their favourites and disables comments!
Thank you.
Any time. We have more content like this planned for 2022. Stay tuned.
Nice video!
Thanks! More to come soon.
The best outfits to wear when wearing a lavalier microphone include: a button down shirt, a polo shirt or a v-neck shirt. Crewnecks make it harder to properly position the microphone.
Great information
Thank you!
I like your suggestion
So glad you liked it. More tutorials like this to come.
Thanks
Thank you!!! We have 2 new tutorials coming out late this week and some longer-form in about a month. We hope you like them too.
I use my wireless lav mic with my samsung on pro mode and seems good, but ive had to put the gain down all the way to -12. It seems to help any distortion, j think i naturally talk loud and with a wide range of tones and volumes haha. But I cant seem to get rid of background noise like fans and humming etc. Unless i film in a steamroom/hotbox (not exactly an option) i cant fully turn off all the sources of air. Ive been trying to figure oht if there's anything else I can do to fix this etc. Its not always obvious but on ocassion i can hear on playback. Agh. And idk if its my voice or the mic (I've tried alot of different ones so i think its just me and a lack of settings adjustment options) is there something I could use to help the audio not get that blown out sound or distortion etc when i talk certain ways etc. Im struggling hard to figure it out and get the sound high quality. But my wallet cant test much more. Any suggestions on fixes, softwares and or tech add ons etc would be so appreciated 🙏
There are 2 issues you mention here: External Wind Noise and Humming
Wind noise from fans or AC is hard to get manage, especially if you have a fan on near you. You need to either turn the source off while filming or move away from the fan or AC vent when filming. I often pump my AC at 69 degrees before I shoot to cool down the room and turn it off for filming. Otherwise it ruins my sound.
A hum could be from the fan or electrical equipment near by that gives off electomagnetic noise. If it is the fan, turn the fan off or move it far away as possible. If it is electrical equipment, try to isolate the gear by an obstical like a blanket or moving away from the source. I often will put blanket on two chairs to block power supplies from lights.

Thankyou
Edit: :)
Really glad you liked the video. We have more tutorials coming soon. Stay tuned and subscribe for more details.
I'm going to try mounting upside down, my biggest issue is plosives and breathing that I find is tedious to edit out and frustrating.
Same. Did it help?
@@dipanjanghosal1662 yeah sound quality is much better now.
Nice video but I have a question. When I record my lav mic also captures some mouth noises which is pretty annoying. Any solution for that? I use Boya by M1
The best solution for this is to experiment with the microphone positioning. Moving the microphone even an inch or two in any direction can make a noticeable difference. Also, try angling the microphone to the side a bit. This may help cut down on some of that noise you are hearing. Hope this helps!
Is there a way to make the mic louder on my iPhone. I have the Blink 500Di and at the highest volume, it’s still not loud enough for me to use. I use the videos for Instagram posts.
Absolutely! If you go to the app store and download our free SmartRecorder app, you can adjust input levels from there. Here's a link apps.apple.com/cn/app/smartrecorder/id1461041445?l=en
@@SaramonicUSA Awesome, thank you! I just got mine two days ago. Love them, I just need to boost the volume a tiny bit and then they will be perfect!
Cool background music
Thanks! We hope you like the Tips & Tricks too. 😉
@@SaramonicUSA those are not tips and tricks. It is a tutorial video. And thanks for the wonderful presentation and knowledge. Good work👍
Hi Saramonic I JUST got the b2 kit and Im learning how to use it. For some reason its picking up all the sounds around me. Even while using the lav mic. I tried checking my audio levels in the camera (canon t5i ) and when I speak regularly its at the 12 mark and when I speak at a loud tone it goes about two yellow - above the 12. Please help.
This can usually be solved by changing your levels on the B2 system or on the cameras input, sometimes a combination of both.
First try to reduce the input level on the camera. Monitor with headphones and try to get a natural peak level input that doesn't exceed about -6 to -4dB. This can be done by having your subject speak naturally then speak loudly, when they are speaking loudly, that's going to be your peak.
You can also turn down the input level on the transmitters. Monitor with headphones as you check the levels and see if you're still getting the excess background noise.
My next tip would be if you are recording in a very noisy environment, try to move to a less noisy environment for the shot.
If you cannot move to a different environment, try to isolate the sound issues that are causing problems. For instance if the air conditioner is making a lot of noise, turn it off. Same is true for fans freestanding or from a computer. This is something that every audio recorder has to deal with. To limit the external sounds that are causing problems is the first step to getting a good recording.
Hope that helps.
@@SaramonicUSA Okay, Thank you! I will try those suggestions out.
Great. Best of luck!
You are going to achieve your subscriber which RUclips Policy
Have y'all heard of Lav Magnet yet? You should check it out. Very useful accessories for wireless.
Just checked it out. Pretty cool.
@@SaramonicUSA Hit me up in an email. I'll send you a kit.
Will do. Thanks!
Is there a way to increase the volume of my microphone in Google Meet?
If you are using one of our wired microphones, you can adjust the input level within Google Meet software or your computer's audio settings. For our wireless systems you can do the same thing, but the input level is also able to be raised from the transmitters themselves. Hope this helps!
I am using boya mic only, but the sound is not coming clearly in my laptop, the voice is blur. What is the solution for that?
Sounds like an issue with the mic, or your set-up.
Contact info@boya-mic.com and they will be able to help you.
Does this mic work with Android? Is there be a USB c cable you can use?
This video is about lavaliers in general, but we have dozens of USB-C lavaliers and USB-C Audio Adapters.
Here is a great USB-C Lavalier: saramonicusa.com/lavmicro-u3a-ultracompact-clip-on-lavalier-microphone-with-usb-c-for-android-mobile-devices-computers-with-6-6-2m-cable-right-angle-adapter-open-box/
And here is a USB-C mic adapter that you can use with 3.5mm output lavaliers: saramonicusa.com/sr-c2003-short-usb-type-c-male-to-gold-plated-female-3-5mm-trs-adapter-cable/
Just to name a few.

I have them say the Alphabet. I like the car tip.
Once you find your sweet spot, mount your microphone.
Pedantic, but I wish people would call these what they are: lapel mics. Actual lavalier mics (larger and hung around the neck) haven’t been used since the 1970s.
Very well done!
Thank you! More to come soon.
