what a gorgeous New Year's Day morning I'll tell you what the sun is out we're gonna get some work
done on the sails but I got an announcement today we're going to start the new year off with some
new camera equipment sound everybody said oh your sound's terrible no we're coming down the
Mississippi it's like I know I'm listening to it too I edit the video but man there's a lot of wind
out there so we're going to try and compensate for some wind this year because sailing is in
the forecast and fortuitously holy land wrote me and said hey would you like to test some of
our products I said absolutely I would so these are like lab mics they just clip on real easy
so when I'm talking to another person I'm going to try out one of those and I upgraded the rodeo
mic on my camera so I run a Panasonic camera and it has an external mic plug in it I wish
they put that mic blood someplace else because I can't close the door all the way but anyway that
runs up to a road mic and I've had a road mic for a long time this is the new one this is a rode Pro
r model and it has a battery on it I hated the one before that had a battery in it because I
forgot to change the the battery to turn it on or turn it off the battery went dead so it was
a pain this battery keeps its charged for a long time because it magically knows to turn itself on
and off when you operate the camera so if I turn my camera on it comes on if I close my door and
the camera shuts down this will shut down too so it saves its battery and it's got some modes that
you can adjust for when I just set it for okay just assume I'm always going to be in wind and
you've been listening to this mic for a while now since I've gotten off the Mississippi so if you're
still complaining about sound uh just uh save your breath but let's give these a try I've got this
one connects to an iPhone so I can go up the mass maybe with my phone and get better sound and this
one will be able to be jacked into my camera so in the Box you have another box open them up and
it doesn't get any less confusing in little hidden compartments for the wires a dead mouse windscreen
this is nice it's one of those battery cases that you put the stuff back in it just starts charging
back that's nice yeah it's got plastic over the contacts tracks in there and they got one for
whatever phone you got okay there's a problem I can't have my Otter case on my phone and use the
microphone so I've got to lose the otter case uh I hate losing my outer case it has saved my
phone so many times I bet somebody makes a penis extender for that I mean a an extender for that
so see there's a clip that goes on just like that it's a pretty good fit a little clip still works
lovely thing is there is no app needed you just plug the receiver into the phone and take the
microphone out of the the box I have the two microphone units so it's a they sell them also
with a single but this will have two channels on it and we'll start out with a blue light
on which means it doesn't have noise canceling you press the little yellow button goes to green
and you got noise canceling so let's do it a try testing testing Mary had a little lamb her fleece
was white as snow wherever Mary went the lamb yeah I went there too and one Discovery I made
If You're Gonna Play the video back you need to unplug the transmitter or you don't hear the audio
fleece was white as snow wherever Mary went the lamb yeah it went there too and I looked
at some YouTube videos and the people who know audio like this gadget too so I'll give it my
recommendation off theirs and yes they make the little penis extender for the phone the other
thing I thought was handy is you can also plug in your phone and charge it through the receiver
while you're using it so when you see the field mouse you know I'm using the Lark C1 from holy
land and if you don't see it I probably should be using it and for your video camera the Lark
M1 it's pretty much the same setup as the Lark c one that works with your phone this one just
has on its receiver a jack so you can just Cable in from the receiver into your camera welcome to
setting vessel speaker out from Pirates Cove Alberta Alabama here on Perdido Bay or take
the receiver and jack it right into the side of the camera welcome to setting vessel Seeker out
from Pirate's Cove Alberta Alabama on Perdido Bay and back in case the charger and you can
plug the case into a USB to charge it that's the Lark M1 from Holly lamb and you can use
the larkham one with your phone too you just got to be able to Jack that cable into your
phone and Holly Land has those cables available if that's the way you want to go the C1 I like a
lot better because you can just plug it right into your phone and it's done no cable so it
carries around with your phone you just need that extender if you got the otter case [Music] foreign
