Sanyo Xacti HD1000 microphone test

[jasonhoneychurch1]

what is with the music?

[HapticX]

i agree with posters, need visual spectral analysis display comparing the two (and spectrum of sound source as well). so many 'audiophiles' have no clue to how many compression/decompression processes occur during media distribution!!

[AngelManuelPacheco]

LMAO it's fake as hell

[kalakalachuchu]

whose singing? it's not richard singing and he sounds so good

[trippiano]

@kalakalachuchu It's Donnie Osmond. Believe it! It's true. Look up his last 3 albums, you'll find it.

[kalakalachuchu]

Can you tell what's the difference with 2nd and 3rd please?

[realjuvelive]

sony mic i think it's fake

[jefkearns]

@realjuvelive It does look like the fake one

[realjuvelive]

@jefkearns watch it there is a comparison video

[DuralastTurbo]

LoL!! The onboard was best - much more clarity! Probably because mounted to a baffle, amplifies the sensitivity. The 1'st 1 was MUFFLED! NOT natural, but rolled-off highs. The Sony OK, the last 1 (onboard) most detail. Can roll off the highs in SOFTWARE after in EDITING! =)

[anim8rjb]

That Sony mic is an obvious counterfeit, so of course it sounds like crap. Youtube search "Sony ecm-ds70p fake mic side-by-side comparison" and watch the first result. He does a side by side sound test and the difference between real and fake is staggering.

[GanEdenAustralia]

@anim8rjb best sony mic around that

[Todaylight]

Impressive test, watch my on with the waterdrops too ;-)

[SteU4IA]

Any one compare the cheap knockoff ebay ones with the real ones?

[OhMrBeefy]

I just a sony stereo mic for $13 free shipping. the ebay item # is 170402260249

[fishycomics]

congrad's they go as low as 5.00shipped,  50/50 you'll get a good one ora bad one.

[OhMrBeefy]

lol oh no!

[renderz]

Thanks for that test. Really useful to know. It wasn't bad at all! It has made it a more likely purchase for me.

[xeonfuze]

yeah....that aftermarket sony mic doesn't sound good at all, if anything internal mic sounds better

[theipodtouchking]

can i use the Sony ECM-DS70p with an ipod can u please quick reply

[alex2810motors]

the internal mic sounds the best?

[89notes]

i like your test. --- to the others

if uve messed with mics enough u will know how difficult it is to get good room acoustics. it really can make or break a recording. .. try using headphones and listen closely again.

[joethemusician]

if you plug the microphone in does the camera just know to use external microphone?

[1l2nb]

whats the name of that song

[NengVang2007]

The song name is (right here waitting for you)

[quadracer392]

You can defanitly tell a diffrence if you watch it in high quality. To do that you have to add &fmt=18 to the end of the URL which you can do to any youtube video. I do agree with you the first one sounded the best, but for an onboard mic it sounds good also

[WaltrikG2]

Yeah and the audio from this video is mono ^^

[soufianDEMOS]

IMPOSSIBLE to distinguish the quality of the audio. The acoustic is terrible and the audio gets compressed when broadcasted on youtube. This is a pointless test ...

Thank you for trying though.

[poprocks889]

Go to the high quality version and listen with a headset. I couldn't tell the difference at first either, but you can really hear it if you add &fmt=18 to the end.

[mossite]

Yes, you can connect an external mic, via mini or micro jack. Not quite sure at the moment.

[enzmusic]

hey there:) would you mind checking some of my live vids to compare the sound quality with my camera, thanks:)

[alchemist2012]

I need to make superb 3D sound. so i need a microphone that i can place the right and left channel apart. does the Soundman OKM Classic Solo II anable me to do that / and where can i find it ? thnks

[skinnyblinddude]

I can't speak for the OKM Classic Solo II, but I can comment on the SONY ECM DS70P. I use it with an Olympus WS 311M digital recorder. I was very surprised at the stereo effect, which is much better than I expected. It is unidirectional, meaning it captures sound in front of the MIC. If you decide on this MIC, make sure you buy it from a reputable retailer. It is being counterfeited and sold at a very low price through eBay dealers. It actual price is near $50.00.

[happygolucky360]

internal sounds better, but RODE VideoMic is better still.! - checkout my vids on the same subject. - cheers.

[happygolucky360]

very good - thanks!
