it's gotta be said that Sony has been
pumping them out quite recently just
pumping out all over the place and
people been paying attention to Sony
pumping out a seminar for that rx 107
but something has been missed something
has been kind of swept on the rug and it
should be paid attention to because this
could up your video game not PlayStation
video game your video game glad we
cleared up anyway if you want to up your
video game check out Skillshare the
sponsor of this video and online sharing
community with thousands of classes that
include filmmaking photography as well
as audio recording but in this video I'm
going to teach you I'm not gonna teach
you bugger all in fact but I'm gonna
show you what makes the Sony mic so
unique compared to something more
conventional like this rode videomic pro
let's go the first thing to take note of
the ECM p1m I hope that's right oh yeah
yes these can be won them is that this
is a digital mic oh my god we're living
in a digital era it's like I'm a battery
in a matrix but no you know this doesn't
actually take batteries that is one big
difference between the ECM br1 them and
the rode videomic pro divert video mic
Pro takes a chargeable battery just look
how tiny that is it makes the road look
like a monster radish it's a neat
compact design even the shock mount is
internal you see down here where's the
road you might bro look at that and the
road just kind of sticks over the edge
which means when you put your eyeball to
the viewfinder you just keep poking your
forehead okay let's hit record on both
them swing them around whoa
double-barreled shotgun style we've got
the Sony easy and b1m and rode videomic
pro I quite like the sound from the rode
videomicro it's it's got a nice full
rich sound I don't want the Sony what is
it sounds like but the Sony is a digital
mic what exactly does that mean apart
from that you and the matrix how it
usually works is sound from my mouth is
analog goes into the mic through the
cable into the carrot that's where it
gets converted to digital and recorded
onto your media it's that analog phase
where there's potential for interference
with a new digital mic sound for my
mouth and log goes into mic gets
to digital and then a digital
information is sent through to mi Shu
into the camera and directly onto media
so less chance of interference sounds
fantastic so what are the compatible
Karan's available yeah okay
I don't have one those anyway let's
compare the sound quality analog versus
analog sound quality test can be a bit
boring so there's spice things up a bit
but nonetheless hopefully you should
stand right there both shotgun mics in
there both pointed at me they're quite
close to me but this is quite a live
room as they might say there's no
soundproofing no sound insulation no
sound deadening these walls are pretty
bare the floor is hard but unless
hopefully it should sound right there
both shotgun mics and they're both
pointed at me they're quite close to me
but this is quite a live room as they
might say there's no soundproofing no
sound insulation no sound deadening
these walls are pretty bare the floor is
hard you know I can hear the sound
bouncing off the walls right in there so
I think you'll hear that would be shot
gun mics I don't know what the noise
level is like
just try to push out fart they don't
want to push too hard I was it might end
up with with produce the mic levels are
adjusted to pretty much the same level
with the Sony you just used the wheel on
the back of the mic there's a clock
ticking clock up there
how's that sound I don't know I haven't
got my headphones on hopefully it sounds
good but that is important you want it
as noisy as possible
talking about noise the sony has got
noise cancelling I mean that's normally
for this kind of noise it's for big epic
noisy bastard places with lots of noisy
bastards about and you just want to cut
that noise out on the left here I've got
a Sony mic that's the news
Sony shotgun mic on right here it's the
venerable rode videomicro Sony distort
as I mentioned before therefore they've
got tech like noise cancelling just like
your headphones but a little bit
different so they've got the low-pass
filter just like with the rode videomic
but this noise canceling vocals sound
nice and noise free because I'm in the
shopping mall lots of background noise
let's try it boom
that's with noise cancelling on
something is when you're shooting
location like this it may not sound too
bad when you're say hey because you kind
of lock it out in your head
the background
like you might hear with road be a micro
right now hopefully this noise
cancelling on the sony is gonna sound
pretty good also you've got the option
for super directional for focusing on
the sound from one source
uni-directional first say to people
speaking or omnidirectional that's good
for all-around sound
actually I think that's it you sound
like this so it should be just focus on
me but has long background noise so I
can switch it to news cut and that's
with noise done so hopefully sound
pretty good but look there are some
issues with having as a my shoe
accessory with the rode videomicro
because it uses the 3.5 millimeter jack
you can extend it you can put the mic
somewhere else you can you can put it on
the other side of the room but also you
can reverse it which is good if you
vlogging with an 87 Karin because the
screen doesn't flip out you can't check
the audio levels yourself if you're
vlogging teste testes testes one two
three but with the sony mic you have to
do in front of a mirror with a seven
it's a very practical mic though with no
need for bad for your cable there's less
things to go wrong there's no cable 2x
and he slip out a socket oh there's no
battery to go flat because there isn't
one I could talk about sound quality and
which one has the better sound but at
the enof aid that's all down to personal
preference before I tried the Sony I
thought the rode videomic pro has quite
a fall sound and sony well not
completely the opposite but this sounds
like there's more details when it comes
to the vocals compared to the road which
almost sounds a bit muffled this is the
muff on muff off test
alright dead cap on the Sony quite often
when you put something like this on the
mic foam dead cat it does kind of cut
the trebles all right dead cap on the
Sony quite often when you put something
like this on the mic foam dead cat it
does kind of cut the trebles all right
let's take this foam off the road Oh
both mics a completely naked no and it
looks quite lewd yet so as I mentioned
before having the foam or dead cat can
kind of take the edge off the trebles
yet so as I mentioned before having the
foam or dead cat can kind of take the
edge off the trebles but it firmness
making the road sound a bit more muffled
or is it just inherently like that and
how does it compare to the Sony mic but
is it the foam that's making the road
sound a bit more muffled or is it just
inherently like that and how does it
compare to the Sony mic the features of
the mic are great offering up
versatility and practicality all in a
body that's small and without the noise
of a cable dangling down it's hard to
argue of that
with the benefits of digital you just
have to listen to Sony's own samples but
otherwise as an analogue on camera
shotgun I think it produces a very
likeable sound but what are your
thoughts which mic the do prefer but
