Awesome video Daniel! It was super helpful. What would you recommend for in ear monitors? I have one of the Ecamm recommended ones, but I find the cord to be too short.
Hey @DrivenSpice! If you have the Mee M6 IEMs, or any other , you can use a 3.5mm extension cable to make it work for you. I've had to use a 25ft cable one time, though I think 3, 6, or 10ft should be more than adequate for most creators. Most wired IEMs have short cords so extension cables are needed regardless of the brand. If you want higher end audio quality, not that it's necessary, you can look into the Shure IEM series.
That's great -- do you have a recommendation for such a mic that also includes headphones (also for Yoga/fitness instructors who teach via Zoom remote classses)?
@@Catelynmeow I haven’t found a single piece that has both mic and comfortable headset, but what I do - when I need to move AND hear things - I use over ear Bluetooth headphones by Oladance.
Great q! If I need to hear audio, I wear either…1st choice: wired in ear monitors attached to a long 3.5mm extension cable (I have a 25ft cable)… or 2nd choice: Bluetooth ear buds. Wireless is always saving choice due to the chance of disconnections though, so I always have the weird ones as a backup.
I've noticed that when using these headset mounts with a green screen, the wire on the side of the cheek will constantly pop in and out of existence because it's too thin for the green screen software to process it properly. I find this so distracting that I've decided that I cannot use this style of microphone. I've noticed this problem using Ecamm's and Zoom's green screen functions. Has anyone encountered this?
Yeah, that will happen. But it's not Ecamm, it's just how chromakeying works unfortunately. Unless you've got a very high quality production and equipment to match, these thin items, and hair, will not look great. That's why I generally do not recommend using green screens. In Ecamm, you can make adjustments to the green colour sensitivity - there's a slider that appears when you enable green screen. You'll just have to play with it until you get the most optimal, but not necessarily perfect, look.Another hack method you can try is by adding tape around the wire to make it even more prominent.
This is so helpful!! Thank you for sharing this tip!
It’s my absolute pleasure! Stay tuned for more helpful stuff! 😀
Great video Daniel! I never knew Rode made a headset mount for the lavalier mic!
@@alec.johnson IKR?!?!? I found it a while back and was like…”WHUUUA?!? I WAANT!”
Got one of these. but it's been in the box... you are inspiring me to dust it off and do something with it. Thanks for the inspo 🙌🏾✨
That's awesome!!! I'm happy to be your inspiration. I can't wait to hear you using it!

How do you walk around and listen to (monitor) your voice and the sound from your computer?

You’re moving
@@MarkusSchaub luckily I use a high frame rate camera or you might have only seen streaks as I was moving 🤣

@@danielchilive Thanks, Daniel. I agree, avoiding a green screen would be the best approach.
