Alright, my winter jacket, with a liner of course, caused a ton of audio issues. It ruined a few recent vlogs I filmed - ARGH! Anywho, I did a bunch of testing over the last couple of days, and I've got a video I'm putting together of OVER TEN different tests of mic placement and jacket/sweatshirt zipped up versus unzipped...
It's a quick one (about 6.5 minutes long) but goes through a TON of stuff related to mic placement, and at the end I show the setup I'm running with right now.
Quick & Dirty Version:
Half helmet, purple panda lapel mic actually clipped to my chin strap near my left ear pad - and audio is EXCELLENT (IMO), even compared to my previous favorite setup.
Of course, this is only on my Street Glide, and I haven't tested it on other bikes yet, but it requires 0 effects in post to get good, clean voice. There's hardly any wind noise, too!
If anyone wants to see the final vid, I can embed it in a post somewhere (Hippo, where ya want it, if at all?) once I upload to YT.
