Lapel Microphone Systems
August 1st, 2010How do I connect two wireless lapel mics to the same receiver for video recording?
Q: I have one camcorder and I want two lapel mics for a video project. I have one mic input hole on the camcorder and I need two mics. I was thinking of using this mic:
http://www.amazon.com/Matrix-Wireless-Lavalier-Microphone-System/dp/B0002KR7EU
but I need two. Does the receiver recognize more than one transmitter/mic?
A: It depends on the receiver. That particular one to which you provided the link will work with only 1 mic per base station/receiver.
At $15, remember, you get what you pay for. I wouldn’t touch a wireless mic in the FM, 800 MHz, 900 MHz, 5.4 GHz or any other “shared” band because that chances of picking up interference are WAY too high. I hope you don’t pick up interference when recording your project.
I use Shure wireless full diversity VHF lavalieres… Sennheiser and Sony Professional make good ones, too.
Does your camcorder have manual audio control?
Most consumer camcorders use 1/8″ stereo mic jacks – if you decide to go with this, you will need a 1/8″ stereo (plugs into the camcorder) to split left/right 1/4″ female jacks. Radio Shack should have them. Be VERY careful – all this weight (the 1/4″ jacks and the base stations” will be very heavy on the 1/8″ jack into the camcorder – you don’t want to break that…
Good luck.
