1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:07,600 So, at long last, we are finally doing something that we haven't done before. 2 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:13,440 We are revealing the identity of the cameraman. It's this guy. No, I'm 3 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:17,920 kidding. Actually, we're getting a microphone for NCX Tech Tips. We're 4 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:24,480 getting a proper microphone that isn't a little uh weird like twinky thing that I 5 00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:27,119 clip to my uh clip to my shirt. This is 6 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:32,079 a proper lapel mic from Sennheiser. It's the 7 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:34,239 EW112P and it is a clip-on microphone, 8 00:00:32,079 --> 00:00:38,320 condenser, omniirectional. Okay. So, Oh, okay. Yeah. It includes a receiver, a 9 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:43,920 body pack transmitter, as well as a clip-on mic. It runs off four AA 10 00:00:40,559 --> 00:00:47,120 batteries, and it has output cables, 3.5 11 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,960 mm jack, and XLR. I actually don't know 12 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:53,199 all the details of this. Uh the cameraman helped me pick something 13 00:00:51,120 --> 00:01:00,879 because he is kind of the expert on all of this stuff. But uh we have the G the 14 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:02,800 PG3. So PG3 here. So we have a setup 15 00:01:00,879 --> 00:01:05,760 that looks like this. So that's what why don't we just open it? Let's just open 16 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:11,760 it. Forget this. It doesn't even come sealed. I was very surprised for a a 17 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:14,240 microphone system that retails for $900. 18 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:19,600 I had expected it to like I don't know have shrink wrap on it or 19 00:01:16,119 --> 00:01:21,680 something. But uh okay, here we go. Wow, 20 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:26,880 that is a heck of an instruction manual. I hope this is in a lot of languages. 21 00:01:23,439 --> 00:01:29,840 Yes, it is. Okay, so the languages are 22 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:33,200 available are nine. And let's see how long the English section Oh, that's not 23 00:01:31,439 --> 00:01:37,439 too bad. Okay, cuz I was going to say like an instruction manual this long for 24 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:41,600 how to plug in a microphone. That would be pretty bad. Okay, so I don't know. 25 00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:46,479 This isn't English. English is the second language in there. Oh yeah, Sennheiser. Of course, it's German 26 00:01:44,479 --> 00:01:50,880 first. Okay, next thing. Additional information. 27 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:56,000 Okay, some more additional information in 28 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:58,840 German. And here it is, our expensive 29 00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:02,439 new microphone system. So, I'll have to figure out what 30 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:09,200 everything in here does. This appears to be a 31 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:12,080 box. Inside, we probably put some 32 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:16,160 batteries. Okay. See if I can figure this out. Yeah. Hey, batteries. There 33 00:02:14,319 --> 00:02:21,840 they go. Okay. So, the batteries go in this way and then that way. So, this is 34 00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:25,280 either the transmitter or the receiver. They both look the same. So, Oh, no. No, 35 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:30,879 they're not the same. Okay. Okay. I got it. I got it. I got it. I'm on 36 00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:32,640 this. See, computer stuff unboxing is a 37 00:02:30,879 --> 00:02:36,239 lot more comfortable for me because I already know most of this stuff and I 38 00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:41,040 don't actually have to try to learn on camera because learning on camera is 39 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:46,239 very difficult. So, uh, okay. Here. So, this one is the transmitter because the 40 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:50,640 mic line is here. I can also mute it or I guess the cameraman could run up and 41 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:56,319 mute me if he felt like being a jerk. And uh then we've also got the 42 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:58,000 microphone itself which is here. So, 43 00:02:56,319 --> 00:03:04,560 this is what I'll be using now instead of that horrible thing. Uh there's a 44 00:03:00,879 --> 00:03:06,400 little clip as well as a little a little 45 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:10,080 cute little cover for the microphone. I wish I had a knife. Oh. Oh, wait. I do 46 00:03:08,239 --> 00:03:15,599 have a knife. Oh, yeah. I have another thing to reveal in this unboxing. I have 47 00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:17,400 a new toy. I have a knife on my keychain 48 00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:22,400 now. Look at that. I got it at House of Knives. Probably spent way too much for 49 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:25,840 it there, but it was kind of an impulse buy. I was like, "Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. 50 00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:29,840 House of Knives. I need a knife." So, I went in and I got the knife. Okay, there 51 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:34,640 we go. So, I got a little cover for the uh for the microphone. Go ahead and plug 52 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:38,400 that in there or cover that there. Okay, there we go. So, it looks like that. 53 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:43,360 There's my microphone. And it goes in that little clip somehow. Maybe we'll do 54 00:03:40,959 --> 00:03:46,840 that, too. It's all made of metal and everything. I was expecting it to be 55 00:03:45,239 --> 00:03:52,560 plastic. Okay. 56 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,879 Um, so yeah, I don't know. Maybe this 57 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:58,439 goes through here. 58 00:03:56,439 --> 00:04:05,360 No. Oh, I see. So, it has to go through this 59 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:07,280 twisted coil somehow, I think. You know 60 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:13,239 what? I'll figure that out later. Okay. So, anyway, we got our mic plugs in 61 00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:18,720 here. There. Let's keep this simple. There we go. Mic there. Oh, and 62 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:23,840 it even screws on. Look at that. All right. And then on this side, we 63 00:04:24,199 --> 00:04:31,160 have the 64 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:33,840 receiver, which goes like this. 65 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:37,440 Yep. And that goes into the cameraman's camera. if he had a way more awesome 66 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,960 camera, which he doesn't. So, we're actually going to use Okay, I better 67 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:45,040 unscrew that before I try and unplug it. There we go. So, we're actually gonna 68 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:49,759 use this one. So, all it is is just a normal uh normal like 3 and 12 mil 69 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:54,960 headphone jack. So, you go ahead and unplug it or plug it in here and then 70 00:04:52,479 --> 00:05:00,479 plug that into the cameraman's camera. And then in theory, we are going to have 71 00:04:57,840 --> 00:05:05,759 much improved audio in our future episodes of NCIX Tech Tips. I can try 72 00:05:03,280 --> 00:05:11,280 and turn this on, but honestly, I don't know how. So, yeah, I guess I'm not 73 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:14,960 really going anywhere with this. There the announcement today. We have a new 74 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:20,160 microphone for NCX Tech Tips. Be excited. The audio quality will be much 75 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,160 improved. We hope.
