      Have you tried this with an iPhone 14? They have three microphones one on the bottom,one on the top of the screen and one on the back near the cameras. I’ve been wanting to record the progress of the buildings in my city being torn down and remodeled. The winds been the major problem and I’m not tech smart to figure out how to record audio tracks over it and lol them together.

      @@JohnDaniels I’m just returning back to this after all this time. Thanks greatly for that link. I have 3 mic locations and one by one put my finger over each and spoke while shooting video. There was no effect while blocking the speaker on the bottom of my phone and also on the front at the top near the front facing selfie camera lens. The only one where the sound was completely blocked was on the back of the phone right next to the 3 lenses that are used for normal video recording. The huge problem is that it is extremely close to the lens and a piece of foam would show in the video. I shoot a lot of wildlife in breezy areas and would so greatly wish for a solution to lowering wind noise on my iPhone 11 Pro but thanks for your efforts here. 🤟🏼

And like you had a hard time stopping the noise on one of the mics. What I ended up doing is getting a app called open camera and then setting the audio to mono and then that all I recorded from the bottom speaker which was an easy place to put the wind guard. Sounds like you're going to need to get some kind of external mic. Good luck and let me know what you figure out 👍🏻

    Try outdoor test and record something with foam over each location to see which is best /proper location.

      The recording part on some phones could be with a mouthpieces but like you said it varies differently on different phones and the best way to do it is like you said record and then just talk around different ports on the phone just like in the video I showed you can look it up on the internet too and it will show you where your mic is the mic on my pixel 4 is at the very top of the phone it's a real small little hole but like you said on different phones it could be in different places

    • @JohnDaniels
      @JohnDaniels  Před 3 lety +1

      That's a good question, make sure that the roller is in the right location. You can tell the where the mic is by recording a video and then just blowing around different parts of the phone where you think it might be and when you play back to video and you hear that loud noise you'll know where the mic is and that way you can position the roller in the correct spot. The only other option I can think of is to buy an external mic. They have some like a USB C that you can plug into the bottom of your phone and then with the external mic you could buy a dead cat wind protector I think they call it this is big fluffy piece of material that goes over the mic and then you could try that. Let me know how it works out.

    Does it still pick up the sound if your voice with this on?

      Good question 👍🏻 if you search my channel for Dallas BMW Marathon and watch a little bit of that video I use the same setup with the hair roller and was talking so you can get an idea of what it sounds like 😀

      @@747heavyboeing3filming aircraft sounds fun, wind noise really messes up a video. I hope it helps. Let me know how it turns out. Some smartphones have a microphone at the top which is a little hole and a microphone at the bottom. So sometimes you have to use two of the hair rollers, one at the top and one at the bottom. And sometimes it's hard to get the microphone at the top with the little hole from getting wind noise even with the roller. So what you may have to do is look in the video recording app and see if there's a way to record in mono where your recording just from the bottom microphone which is easier to keep the wind noise out of

      Make sure there's not two microphones some of the phones have a mic on the top and they'll have a mic on the bottom so if you put the wind blocker on the top one then you'll still get to wind. from the bottom or vice versa.
      I ran the Dallas Marathon using this technique and I had to use a program called open camera and then within that program I had to record mono which only recorded audio from the bottom speaker and that's where I put the wind blocker on and the video sounds great but it was really windy that day so it really does work 👍🏻

    The iPhone 12 has mics next to the lens & on both sides so this solution wouldn’t work unfortunately 😂

    • @JohnDaniels
      @JohnDaniels  Před rokem

      Yeah that makes it a lot harder, you can look and see if there's an option to only record on certain mics. On my new Google phone it has microphones on the top and bottom and I tried to stop the wind on the top one and could not get it to work so I use this photo app called open camera and inside there they had an option for mono recording which only recorded from the bottom line and so I put the hair roller on the bottom of the phone and it works perfect. But you're right if it has multiple mics and hard places it's almost impossible it seems like these phone manufacturers would come up with some kind of solution for this 👍🏻

      @@JohnDaniels I agree! I think in the future they will come up with a solution but for now it’s hard to get inbuilt stereo wind protected recordings. Filmic pro allows you to select mics but not the stereo ones either side
