Thank you 🙂
You just saved me 7 minutes. Thanks!
U saved me so much time! Thank u thank u thank uuuuuuu!😀
Thank you
thank you
As a music and sound producer, I would suggest Sidechain-ing your audio (As we call the music producers call it), which is essentially to limit the signal to only output once it is above a certain threshold of db (decibel). This is a great thing to use to avoid all the noise in your audio between every time you speak. Most video and music (DAW) software got such solutions included, It is just the matter of understanding the software you use :)
Would you recommend a preamp, or a device like Zoom H6? I'm completely new to sound and trying to figure out how to get great audio for my channel. Still haven't decided on a camera, because all the DSLRs have like 30 minute runtime, which sounds like a nightmare.
I find that the fan makes alot of noise, but if I turn it off, I'd be sweaty while recording 😂
Turn your fucking ac on
@@johnlemon8267 Get him an AC he might then turn it on

Same here😂
@@johnlemon8267 we don't have ac bro
man, your videos are super underestimated! you are the reason I stopped second guessing my self and got in to the you tube game. I am now 300 subscribers in guys! The best to you and your channel man!!!
ZaidsExperience Congratulations on hitting 300!
817 now
Cool bro
ZaidsExperience i just got to 200 myself. I am working on my audio as well. Check me out and subscribe guys. Thanks.
Wow that voice over using the camera mic and also the phone mic really sounded good! Great tip! Cheers!
Just wanted to tell you how helpful I have found your tips. I’m new to TH-cam and finding your videos and podcast has been really helpful. Thank you for all your hard work.
Lot of thanks, I discovered you when I've searched a video for a cheap camera for vlog, now I fall in love to your channel, thanks for every tips.
Always find your tips super helpful Sean. I'm on limited budget so filming with iPhone and tiny plugin rode mic, natural light only.
Filming environment is challenging - there can be regular traffic noise that the mic picks up from most rooms in my house (unfortunately also the rooms with the best natural light) and I find myself trying not to speak too loud because I film when the baby sleeps. On days where it's just not working I'll try to make it work with voiceovers instead.
But really pleased that I'm still able to get it done 👊 and I really feel like I'm improving with each subsequent video 😊🙌
Very helpful, as usual! Thanks, Sean!
Thank you for the audio tips! Love your videos always aiming for the best and the road to the top! Very blessed :)
thanks for posting this on your community tab! i did a test run before filming my first video and right off the bat - investing in a mic is a must.
The vocal projection advice is a really great reminder. I know that I can have trouble with that at times. Sure, I sing and project like crazy but I didn't remember this in regards to videos and I'm sure that makes a difference when I record.
Thank you soooo much!!!!!
Liked the way you demonstrated the sounds of the different microphones! Very helpful.
I bought the Boya when I started off on TH-cam per your advice and for $20 it has been doing a phenomenal job for the quality of my tech reviews. Appreciate all you do Sean!
Sean you are awesome as always. Between you and Harris I learn so much.
Thanks for the help which i have searching from few days
Thanks for the help!
great test of all the equipment in the video
Thanks I needed this I’ve just started my channel and I needed help with audio quality
🔮I love the way you giving a presentation. Clear, straight to the point.
great advice shawn , really helpfull
super helpful thankyou!
You’re videos are always helpful. Thanks!
Great video. For anybody who wants a sample, I switched to a Smartlav+ from Rode on my video this week, "The Future of the Channel." I like the sound a lot but costs about $80 USD. I record into a Tascam DR-05 ($100) and sync it up later with the video. I used to use the Aputure A.lav mic on all of the videos before that one and I like that mic too and it's only about $35 and sounds almost as good as the Smartlav+. I hope this helps.
Damn man you're sooo amazingly good at explaining and entertaining!! Amazing channel and you have everything for vloggers ;) I'm always using your link in the description)) get that coin! That's the least I can do :)
Yes
I love , love , loveeeeeee all your videos, you helped me a lot. Thank you! 🤩🤗
Always good. Great ideas and thanks for sharing the experience!!
thanks Sean for this information
LOVE this video! Am sharing with all my clients as of right now! Personally I rely on the power of my voice and my built in phone mic for social media videos, but I have a fancy wireless lapel mic for training and promo videos.
Honestly, you have some of the best solutions for on the budget gear. Big props to you and many blessings bro. Don't stop and I hope one day we can collabrate as I will be launching my blog page in near future. KEEP CRUSHING IT!!
Good tips, appreciated.
Thanks, well done.
Helpful. Thank you
Thank you for the tips
Great tips, thank you so much!
You are really helping me level up my channel, I appreciate what you do, thank you.
Oh oh...I think the Boya sounds better than the Rode. Not as thin and tinny.
I thought the rode was far superior
Plus its way cheaper than rode
Thought so as well
Right.
Brilliant explanation, thank you soooo much! :-)
Thanks man. This was really helpful!
Love your videos and contents, are amazing!! Thank you so much!!
Thank you once again for some awesome tips.
thank you your post
Thanks for the tips, Well appreciated
I NEEDED THIS VIDEO!!!!! Hey, do you think you can make a video about editing? Maybe the basics and other helpful tips!
Thank you for the information it was very helpful see ya on tv
Brilliant thanks
thank you for useful tips
Great Video. Most video we produce is done live even if it's just being recorded for TH-cam. So we use the DPA D:Fine headset microphones which are XLR. We then use a Scarlet 18i8 to convert XLR to USB and provide the phantom power. These are known to be the best microphones money can buy and they are used on broadcast and in hollywood movies. They are so good that we usually don't have to worry about post production or room noise.
I use the Blue Snowball and it has worked super well!
EZCubing
is it really better than the iphone mic?
This was very helpful, thank u
this was so helpful!
Thanks again for another great videos. I try to improve my audio sound by using audacity.
Thank you so much Sean! Your videos are very helpful and look great. I have the Snowball mic ( it was given to me) and I have found it better for me than much more expensive microphones. I think certain microphones do better with certain voices.
You are so welcome!
I feel more confident now Thank you again
Hey Sean nice video!
Great video as always. I've been debating on getting a blue yeti to start a podcast. But would also like to use it for voiceovers. Not necessarily sure what the best budget friendly set up is for podcasts. Would love someone's input. Thank you
Vanessa Blanco I have a blue yeti but like he said the blue snowball is just perfect for the price
My wife and I just used the Blue Yeti two days ago to finally get started on making a podcast. I'm in the process of editing it, and it's... pretty awesome lol it's worth it for podcast and voice over. I feel like quality wise alone, we're off to a great start. As for a set up, I got the idea for us to record in our walk in closet. Turns out all those hanging clothes were great for getting rid of echoes and giving us the quiet room we need to isolate our voices. It's great. We're just beginners, but I'm sure we could give you pointers if you're interested.
So helpful 😊 Thanks Sean .
Very helpful.
MAN THANK YOU SO MUCH, THIS WAS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED!!! honestly came expecting less than this, maybe a 6 out of 10 but you get a 10/10 in my book. great work.
Thank You very much
This has been very helpful. Thank you - [You earned a like from me]
Your voice quality is great brother... loved it.
Ty soooo much
I used to use the Blue Snowball ICE, but upgraded to the Yeti about 4-5 months ago. I now also use a Mic Arm and Pop Filter. i'd say if you want your audio to have more base and prominence, bring it closer to you.
Great video on audio... Was hoping you can make one on the best budget ONE mic setup for recording live music/concert
Thanks for the tips. 🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒
This was helpful!!!
At the moment I use my phone as a recorder, and it works quite well. Ive been looking to get a nice lavalier but haven't found one that catches my eye, yet.
how do you avoid background/interferences noise? Even when I record an audio using the iphone mic and my earphones, it does record my voice well but it has a static noice in the background .... thank you
I do live soccer commentaries using a blue snowball. Works extremely well as long as you set up the microphone each time you use it!
Awesome information for youtube beginners..Binge watching think media and video influencers like it's a series on Netflix! lol Great content!
I actually use many of these options depending on my environment. I use a Zoom H1 external mic with a lav for my reviews, a blue Snowball for my Podcasts. I even use my iPhone for my Drive videos. Great video as always Sean.

Love your voiceover tip!
We use the Rode VideoMic Pro for cam audio and for VO we use the Samson Meteor Mic. For audio editing we HIGHLY recommend Audacity. It's a free solution that offers a lot of options.
Just got a cardioid shotgun mic from Boya that I plan to use for my iPhone and excited to test how it sounds 👍🏽
Thx for the tips👌
I use a blue snowball with foam tiles and it works really well
This is helpful for my future videos. I ordered a usb mic to try.
Thank you.
Since my TH-cam video/audio budget is $0 right now, I'm grateful to know that what I have right now will work well. It may not be as dynamic & professional as some videos out there but I'm ok with that. Gives me something to work up to & drives me to make the best content I can! ✌💜😊
I have almost all the equipments required for vlogging and TH-cam videos like Osmo action, sony a6400, Mavic 2 pro drone, rod nt usb mic, boya m1 mic and many more...but unfortunately I have no content..😂
hello mam I have lots of file and power point on economy and bussinees but I can age to shoot videos and audio if you are doing the video please help me we can do better and make excellent vidoes
What are your tips for getting better audio for your videos? Tell me down here!
THiNK Media TV in my video editor u cam increase the decibel of the sound it works well. Keep crushing it 😁
THiNK Media TV I am thinking to use a Rode NT1a mic for my gaming channel, it's not very expensive, and sounds great! I'll suggest Rode NT1a
THiNK Media TV I set up some huge pieces of Foam around me which keep the sound intact.
Tip if rode is to expensove buy the bm 800 and a simple usb sound interface it gives me cristal clear audio for less than 25 $ use your on board mic and use adobe audition or audacity and the quality will be much better
LuckyMe Thanks for the tip man.
Thanks a lot for helping me improve my audio 😀
Thank you so much for that awesome tip about using camera or phone to do a voiceover - I’m just started out and pretty out of depth with audio etc! Great tip :))
I am in the same boat
I just bought an "iRig" handheld mic for $40 for on the go and interviews. The sound pretty good for the price.
My latest trick is using the Boya with my old iPhone 4 and use the Apple Native "Voice Memos" software to record - it's great for voice overs OR you can keep that combo on the subject and use it as a virtual wireless mic if you sync the audio later. I also find the Boya actually sounds better than in this video if you can get out of a room that echos :)
Thx so much
As a new content creator you don’t understand how helpful this is
Samson Meteor. Got mine for $23 in-store at Best Buy and am overall happy with it. I also use a studio condenser mic for voice overs when needed.
I am about to start my channel and luckily I had a blue snowball just like that tucked away in a drawer 👍👍👍
This is great. I just got a Rode Mic for my TH-cam videos.
the one an only SEAN! haha! i knew, and used all this techniques but somehow, i just find this video entertaining to watch.
greetings from MEX
thanks!
hey the boya mic is not working for mobile videos. Do we have to download any app for that?
yeah the boya and the phones own microphone is the same and i am very dissapointed too plus there isnt a difference in sound
The phone voice over tip is great, a massive sound improvement for the cost of moving your phone towards your face! :D
good video. i like . really good tutorial
Great video. You might want to add showing how to strip off on-camera audio and replace with better audio. A discussion of Mono vs Stereo audio might be nice. You might also have mentioned that bad audio will drive people away from a TH-cam channel but they would tolerate lower resolution video. This is because with TH-cam, we are often doing something else while 'watching'.
Going to try for the next video....👍🤗
As for budget microphones I use a Comica CVM-V30 Lite shotgun style mic, it sells for less than $40 and does a good job!
I do most of my videos with it!
Thanks Sean, great video and tips as always! I'm so glad you mentioned that I could use my I Phone, because on one video recently, my sausuage making, I neglected to turn on my shotgun mic! Now I have a way to fix that problem. And I'm definitely going to buy a Yeti Blue so I can do direct voice overs as well. Really enjoy your educational videos.
Great!
Thanks for the information Sean! I have struggled a bit with this. I have a wireless lavaliere mic that I use when I do "talking head" videos but with my channel I have been doing alot more vlog style (I have a fitness channel geared towards Dads, if the channel name didn't give it away! lol). WIth the vlog style I definitely need to find some sort of simple shotgun mic that can attach to an iphone because I have terrible audio when I do vlogs. Thanks again for the info!
