Cardo Packtalk Bold Review and RECORDING HACK

[@czarodzi9967]

9:35 the caption reads "Recording your conversation" while you're saying "Installation of speaker and mic wiring" and I like the featured example 🤣

Glad that these worked out for you guys on the trip and the audio did sound good and clear in the clip. I have a pair of JBL studio monitors in my set up and am very pleased with them. Thanks for the review Peter. 👍😎

Great video and an awesome tip for recording. What Tascam unit did you use?

[@CurtisSound]

Nice job. I've used this method to record and monitor audio from a chase vehicle and it works well. Though, I also wire my own mics into helmets and mount an RF transmitter to record separately for some of my projects. Also, you may find it more comfortable to place the boom mic arm between the cheek pad and EPS liner of the helmet. The cheek pad should pop off with a few snaps.

Looks great Peter and glad to hear they worked really well on your road trip :)

[@JohnDaubSuperfan369]

Taping 3rd party equipment to your helmet sounds like a guaranteed way to Schumacher yourself, but that's actually a quite neat setup.

I wish Cardo would add the Packtalk Bold to the recently introduced Intercom Recording feature

[@jillmondt5398]

John thank you for this video. I know a couple who are bikers. The lady told me it is a challenge to communicate while on the road, this is going to make her summer rides so much better, if she gets this audio rig. 👍 Update: They have this rig.

Cool as always 😎👌

Could you use a splitter to keep from requiring a third unit?

[@PetervonGommJAPAN]

That’s a great question! And I thought about that after using the third unit. It’s worth experimenting

[@_Moto215]

Do you think you could use the cheaper Cardo Spirit to be the recording device instead of spending more on the bold?

[@nefertemur8951]

Greetings PVG, what an awesome presentation and promotion, yuu are truly a professional in your line of business. Can you tell me what video editing program you are using? Thanks for sharing and I look forward to your next episode as I am sold.

[@PetervonGommJAPAN]

Thank you! I use Final Cut Pro for video editing.

[@nefertemur8951]

@@PetervonGommJAPAN Awesome, thanks PVG!

[@Grimsy_Max]

Really useful information! Thanks

[@007007gf]

Based on the short interesting audio clip, the documentary should be good. Thanks for the review.

[@DooMMasteR]

Yeah battery life was the biggest letdown, also when you do not power them off, they stay on indefinitely until the battery is empty, I will stil uses it for tours, but for daily driving I went back to a Nolan N-COM with auto power off/on based on a motion sensor. Sound quality is really nice though, best in class I would say and the mic is also quite usable.

[@ramsessilent]

they seem to work great might have to get a set for 4 wheeling. thanks for the share! stay awesome!

[@NorthViewMoto]

Cool idea on how to record your voice without having to use a mount GoPro. Thanks for the tip.

[@lohanette]

Nice bit of tech.

[@jarihult]

For a tech geek , kind of🤔this video is a diamond 😎Very interesting to see this , thank you Peter for sharing this with us 🙂👍!!!

[@scubasteve524]

They only loaned you the units? Man most motovloggers get them from cardo as a promotional unit because of the numbers of viewers they will get from the vlog. Kind of disappointing. Good video though keep it up Peter.

[@PetervonGommJAPAN]

Yeah I totally agree! For whatever reason this local office here wouldn’t give us the units - I think that’s part of their policy. Had we used Cardo USA I think we would’ve gotten them for free. That’s OK will be bugging them again on the next ride - gifting us a set will be a condition-

[@MarcRitzMD]

Using a third unit for recording is not a workaround but a deal breaker. What a horrid system

[@MarcRitzMD]

Proprietary microphone plug is unacceptable. No "audio hack"would be necessary

[@lindamorita710]

Entertaining -- don’t understand any of the technology, though. And, would never be on a bike in the near future 🙂
