I finally found a MOTOVLOG setup for CLEAN audio & video

[@AntiParallali]

A few of you are telling me the MOVO mic is out of stock on Amazon, if that's your situation, it's in stock on their website MOVO's website: shrsl.com/3vtcm Amazon: amzn.to/3CJHkfG

[@TWOTEN_DAILY]

Hi Lali are you using an add on when you edit your videos? I tried to edit the video but the wind noise is still there even with the mic inside the helmet not tucked in behind the cheek pad mic is sticking outside the cheek pad. i mean its not bad compared to the mic of the go pro internally i can still hear myself talking and the sound of the motorcycle but the wind noise is still there maybe you can help me out a tip maybe? Lol thanks in advance

[@AntiParallali]

In Adobe Rush I just reduce background noise by 10% and click "enhance voice" that helps it out and gives a good balance between voice and hearing the bike

[@AntiParallali]

You can use a free software like Audacity to process audio if your video editor doesn't have something built in. I used to do that too

[@TWOTEN_DAILY]

@@AntiParallali thank you so much im using davinci pro software. Ride safe 🙌🏼

[@Intercom_e_Cia]

Hi Lali, have you using some setup to mix the Cardo sounds (like music or conversation) in the GoPro records? I trying to make a setup using the Cardo mic and 2 others micro microphones to capture the sound from speakers.

[@gmcphoto]

A million thanks for sharing your links on your setup. I was really struggling with audio quality, cracks and pops. OMG this Mic has definitely solved my issues even at highway speed with my Visor UP! Sound quality is excellent. I highly recommend, thank you.

[@vangoodwin7335]

I've no intention for vlogging, but i do appreciate the time and money spent to have good video and audio in your vlogs. Thank You young Lady Hoka Hey

[@DemonViewLLC]

Had to bookmark this. I have had so many people complain about recording bad audio on a motorbike with GoPro's and I end up taking hours upon hours trying to educate them. Now I'm just going to direct them to this video instead and save myself some time!

[@DemonViewLLC]

Oh look, follow up comment! I'm STILL sending this video to people who have the exact same issue when motovlogging. It's good to have a "real world" example with audio of how the setup works. Also I can barely ride a bicycle, so I can't weigh in. So thanks again for this video!

Hello Lali we just found your channel. We are using GoPro Hero 8's as well. Have not media modded on a helmet yet will do so now thanks to this video. The Purple Panda just got us again with the issues you called out during a week of vloggs from Florida's Forgotten Coast. This was very helpful. Best wishes for you and your platform from ODTRP.

Lali, you are an Angel, that microphone that you recommended is FANTASTIC! It took 3 weeks to be shipped to me but it arrived this week and I have just done a quick test ride with it and the quality is amazing right out of the box. I hope you don't mind but I have mentioned this video of yours in my test video using this setup. I can't thank you enough for this advice as I now finally feel like I have the audio quality to start MotoVlogging properly.

I'm getting ready to do my first motovlogging season. I am rocking a Z1R Solaris helmet, GoPro Hero 8 on chinmount, Tascam DR-05x, and a Purple Panda microphone. I have a Drift Ghost XL setup on a side mount on my helmet for backup and for dashcam. My handsfree audio is the Cardo Freecom 4+ with JBL speakers, which I love cause it raises and lowers volume based on ambient sound. Lastly, I put deadcats on ALL microphones. This effectively deletes wind noise. Always use deadcats. I will say they look absolutely ridiculous. But, they are absolutely necessary! I will say this. The Purple Panda is the absolute BEST microphone I have tried so far and that is my pick for the audio. Purple Panda with Tascam DR-05x.

[@OwlsEye_PT]

Hello there, Thank you for this suggestion, I have replicated it in my helmet and it works like a charm, specialy the mic. I did a first test today and the footage and sound are amazing. Thanks for this video! Cheers from Portugal!

[@Aussie_R6]

Gotta say the gloss carbon helmet looks so good. So happy you found your perfect motovlog setup Lali. Have to go look at the helmet as I'm due for a new one soon.

[@mikemccabe8198]

I really enjoyed this video. I enjoyed the tech info (I'm certified geek) but also seeing you ride around where we used to live. Hershey is one of the few towns where you want to live near the factory. The smell of chocolate and roasting almonds was heavenly. The wooden roller coaster (at 7:46) on the left was, at least at the time when it was built in the early/mid 90's, the largest wooden structured roller coaster either in the nation or world. Would be cool for you to do an episode just on the Hershey story as you tool around the town. He was a great man. Thanks for the video! Enjoy all of them!!

[@AKmohanrajj1]

You're Positive Vibe is so great that i started to Vibing to it ❤😁 Keep Going ❤🙏💯

[@DieselLegiance]

I just ordered the mic. I have not been able to find a mic that works good so I’m looking forward to trying it. Thanks 👊🏼

[@XenaTheQuadCamBikah]

I’ve watched so many videos on a good Moto log setup my head is spinning and I’m ready to say f this. I don’t like full face helmets I wear a Bell 3/4 so it’s been especially challenging to get decent audio without having to scream. I made a video using a go pro 10 with the media mod, using the back camera and the camera is on a neck mount and it was ok. I tried a full face with a gaming mic and got all kinds of snap, crackle, pop so ditched that. . (Had I seen your video first I would have bought this Mov instead) Thanks for all the effort you put in Lali. Much appreciated!

[@brothersbikesandbourbon]

Absolutely love Chin Mount--great customer service. Super product. Went into that world thanks to you

[@RamblinManMoto]

Wanted to thank you for this video. I ended up using the GoPro Media Mod and the same microphone and I LOVE this set up. I'm using a Shoei helmet.

[@slept-on_SP]

Chin mounts is a game changer. I went with an external audio recorder since I dont plan on vlogging/talking, maybe when im a beast at doing wheelies ill add a mic to it but not quite there yet.

[@Ryzza5]

If you're worried about losing all audio, connect your mic to a RODE Wireless Go II transmitter which you can configure to auto-record without needing the receiver. Each transmitter has 4GB onboard storage which is around 7 hours of WAV audio. It also has dual recording at normal and -12dB to avoid clipping. The real holy grail of audio recording is a dual-vlog setup that records your friend's voices over the intercom.

[@AntiParallali]

great, now I just need friends! LOL

[@motorbikehike5350]

Lali, thanks for the advice on the mic. It is working well for me so far. I stuffed the whole thing behind a cheek pad and it sounds pretty good. You are pretty smart and funny.

[@MrSirjamalot]

I just installed the Twiins handsfree 3.0 Bluetooth system in my helmet a few days ago. You were right about having music to listen to while riding. It's not very bassy, but it sounds pretty good. The speakers fits perfect in my helmet slot of my HJC helmet. It took me a while to connect to my phone but got it done. I accidentally called the chinese resturant 4 times while trying to pair it up with my phone. They probably thought I was prank calling them. I was getting hungry in the process. I haven't started doing any videos yet while riding, that will come soon.

[@du-rron874]

Thank you for sharing your research. I just ordered the Mic because of your recommendation.

Great video! I am currently going through these headaches of finding solutions to Gopro audio issues. It is so annoying! Glad you found what works for you!

I bought a Strada II earlier this year as well and love it. Mine is matte black.

[@crunchmunchkin]

Lali, thank you so much for discussing about a trusted mic in so much detail. I've had so many issues with the various lavalier mics that I used and I had given up hopes of getting a mic which wouldn't leave a hole in my pocket! I have read a lot of positive reviews for the Movo ACM400 microphone (on Amazon) that you recommended and I'm finally going to try one out to test it! best wishes from India!

[@AntiParallali]

Good luck! I've had a lot of people giving me good feedback about it too since I made this setup video

I was contemplating the Hero 10 but then saw it had SD card error issues. Digging your setup. Might go that direction. Maybe the Hero9 with the Media Mod. Love that I can also use this as a normal vlogging camera off the helmet using the Mod. Ride safe. Just found you. MP

[@AntiParallali]

Just know the hero9 media mod is more bulky than the one for the hero8

[@rogerdayton]

I'd get a 10 before a 9. I still use 8's, but have been contemplating getting some 10's. As far as SD cards. I'd get SanDisk Extreme Pro. Shouldn't have any problems with it. I'm always paranoid of loosing footage. So I frequently download and reformat the card.

[@BlackRiverRider]

I have been using the Hero 10 since it came out and a Hero 3 Black for many years. Never had any issues with SD cards using SanDisk brand at the proper write speed and I use max bit rate all the time.

[@codiejman533]

OH MY GAWD!!! you earned a SUB. I've not tested on a ride yet as it just came in (the mic) but already I notice a huge difference in how much of my breathing comes through, way less. I hope the popping is taken care of from this. I also tucked it behind my cheek pad. I have a modular helmet. I'm actually worried lots of airflow will come in through the cheek pad as its right where the front of the helmet seals at but either way the audio quality is great and clear. Thank you!

[@AntiParallali]

Glad it helped! Play around with the position of the mic if you get too much wind noise, or add a fluffy deadcat to it

[@GaamaLuna]

That road looks super (nice ) ride green landscape just relaxing of a ride overall🏍 😊 😎

[@Michael_Motorcycle]

Can I just say what everyone is thinking? You are so delightful and amazingly beautiful! I appreciate just hearing your voice and seeing your smile!

[@JeffMarcum]

I have found that the GoPro mic adapter is the cause of most of my audio interruptions. I have a media mod and new microphone ready to go. I just need to take time this weekend to swap them out. You’re right, the key to the correct microphone is getting one that plugs straight in to the media mod without the need for a TRRS-TRS adapter. The fewer the connections, the better.

[@AntiParallali]

Yes, definitely skip the adapters if you can. They're a big part of the issue. They're not designed to be plugged in and out constantly like we have to in motovlogging

[@brapperdan]

[@Hkmmotologs]

I think when you want to purchase for lav mic/any mic for gopro or any action cam is to look for 3.5mm TRS industry standard connector ( 3 section connector). Most multipurpose lav mics including purple panda comes with TRRS connector ( 4 section ) for direct compatibility with most smartphones and comes with an adaptor to convert TRRS to TRS converter which in moto vlog setup adds an additional bulk and complexity. just buy any good quality lav mic with 3.5mm TRS connector preferably short cable length . Rode, Sennheiser, deity, boya etc. have descent quality budget options that's used for wireless lav systems.. Great video and insight by the way!.. Subbed! :)

[@AntiParallali]

Yes, TRS connector. And if you need an adapter to make it work, don't buy it

[@OldGuyRidin]

You've convinced me. I have the Purple Panda and have issues with it. I'm trying the Sony ecm cs3 but haven't been out yet to test it. Just ordered the Movo acm400. Should be here by Sunday. Thanks for the tip.

Thanks for telling us about the mic. I got a Purple Panda, plugged into a Hero 9 with the media mod and the audio was shit from day one.

Ended up getting a Senna 20S Evo to plug into an old cellphone to record audio just using the Senna on my helmet. Works decent enough but I'll give this mic a try.

Hey Lali! I have a very similar set up and I'm just starting out motovlogging. I have the same helmet (forza version, not carbon) and it is a good bit quieter with the front chin vent closed! Also, I got a Zoom h1n audio recorder because I was frustrated with the wind noise/clipping I was getting no matter how quietly I talked or how well I sealed up the bottom of my mic. The h1n solved it and made the audio better than I can imagine. It's $100, but it is soo worth it. I tried like 3 different lapel mics and it was really just the audio recorder that I had to change out. Really cannot recommend it enough if you ever have any frustrations with audio if you don't have a dedicated audio recorder already.

[@AntiParallali]

I do want to try the zoom recorder...but to record my exhaust so I can just upload pure Spicy boi Akra exhaust vlogs with no talking lol. Pure bliss sound!
