Hi Steve, so I just want to go with a basic vlog, the family vlog you explained sounded pretty good so I just want to go with that. Now my question is, I would need to buy the Movo VXR10 mic along with buying the Media Mod and use both at the same time to get the sound quality right? Thanks for your video, it's very helpful!!!

@SteveWB

Жыл бұрын

That is correct. You can use the dongle but that is a pain because it is just hanging there and you have to buy a special case. Here is what works best for me for family vlogs. I use the Hero 10 with the media mod then I like to use the deity D4 duo because it has a mic for in front of and behind the camera and that just plugs into the media mod. Now if you do not want to buy the deity get the rode or Movo VXR10 but just remember that if you are behind the camera you have to speak louder than people in front. You should get a great result!

Thanks for the video. Can you charge the gopro while the external mic adapter is plugged in? I need to charge while recording. Thank you

@SteveWB

I think that requires a different adapter. It is a 2 in 1 usbc. The single side goes in the camera and the dual side is where you hook up power and audio.

I will go with expernal mic because perfect to remove battery and fix ir

Smallrig Aluminum cage dissipates heat - You don't get this with the Media Mod - That said - there is a VLog version of the AL Cage that holds the Mic adapter. You need to test the Rode LAV mic with the Mic adapter and the AL Cage

The clip on mic will be great however you need a way to connect it to the gooro and you have 2 choices. 1 the media mod and 2 the GoPro dongle. If you use the dongle which is much cheaper you need a way to mount it with your gopro usually a housing can be purchased . That is why I like the media mod because it has the built in microphone adapter that you can plug the rode into. No housing required. I hope this helps . If still confused let me know and I will try again.

$5 1. Take a rectangle piece of 3M double sided tape. 2. Place over front microphone. 3. Use a razor to cut out a small square from the tape around the front facing mic. 4. Cut out a matching sized piece of a foam Soda/Beer Koozie 5. Place onto the 3M tape, fully encapsulating the mic holes. Great for reducing wind noise and if you do it right it can be done in 5 mins and save you lots of time and money!
