It's endlessly frustrating and in fact at other times in this video the audio also wasn't great. No idea why, the microphone is always clipped to my first in the same place. Just when the battery is low for some reason it has a mind of its own.
@@CRG-2 It seems to be the decline of decent products and a lack of design thought going into things - most likely due to the throw away nature of most people. Hopefully, you get a response from the creators and a new feature update or something. Do mics even have a firmware?
Awesome video. I watched the main one and the power supply too. Crazy guys... invent imperial and then you go switch to metric after all, there's your problem.
The splitting of the keyboard posts seems to be a common problem with the Vics - I have 5 now and most of them have 1-2 split. Great job on the repair!
You seem to have an unlimited amount of patience... 😂 For the metal work that doesn't need painting, you can easily electroplate it with just a 9V battery and premixed solutions. It would be less time consuming compared to spray painting everything.
Please NEVER paint sheilding lids and fences where they clip together. The clips are intended to conduct to complete the faraday cage that contains the EMI. It won't stop the device from working but it ruins the intent of the original product and shows that you were thoughtless in your restoration.
Wow, who knew a low battery made the mic sound like it was going through a slow ring mod! I wonder what's making it have that sound, surely it's not broadcasting in analogue and having the signal cut in and out? But seriously, I've seen others complain about the lack of beep, mainly due to recording segments without realising it's died and having no audio. They really need to make it beep every 5 minutes or so when it's got low battery. Much less annoying to cut-around or filter-out a brief moment with that beep, than to have screwed-up or entirely missing audio.
Love the comment to the mic company - worth pausing for :D 😄

It is a bit of a hassle. But I have gone back to mic on a boom. I always forgot to charge.
Gold. Love the rant

Thanks. I'm glad to hear to you've enjoyed them. Plenty more mistakes yet to come too and I'm sure not only ones to be caused by the metric system 😅

Looking good
At 18:17 why did you say "no" after you replaced the 4066? It looked ok to me.

Sorry, where is the main video?
You can also replace the 6522s with brand new ones from WDC for $10 each.
