I&#8217;ve learned SO MUCH about how to get good sound and stream it and I really enjoyed the process. Sometimes the learning process (the journey) is so much more fun than arriving at the destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Right now the heart of the set-up is the QSC TouchMix 8 mixer. To that I connect the BK-7m, my FR-8X accordion and a mic or two. It outputs sound to a 150 watt small computer speaker setup that is a 2.1 setup (satellite speakers and a woofer). The mixer also outputs the stereo signal through to my Zoom F4 field recorder while in audio interface mode. From there it&#8217;s all software that is picked up by the ZOOM meeting software and sent on to the people viewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">One of the challenges was in getting good quality voice output, so the Neewer NW-410 microphone was used and that worked well, but picked up everything, including the background. The solution was simple, switch to a dynamic mic and my old Radio Shack equivalent of the SM59 was up for the task, and it worked great, except the wire got in the way. I needed something small, wireless and that had great sound AND had a mute switch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">This brings me to my latest acquisition, the Godox MoveLink M2, a wireless lavalier system that is really affordable, but really good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"512\" src=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.40.24-PM-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1481\" srcset=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.40.24-PM-3.png 580w, http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.40.24-PM-3-300x265.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"488\" src=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.37.38-PM-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1482\" srcset=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.37.38-PM-1.png 500w, http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.37.38-PM-1-300x293.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"528\" src=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.39.33-PM-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1483\" srcset=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.39.33-PM-1.png 450w, http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-03-at-5.39.33-PM-1-256x300.png 256w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are a couple videos from YouTube:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"5 Minute Review | Godox MoveLink M2 Wireless Microphone Kit\" width=\"880\" height=\"495\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Hna2xAbkky8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Godox MoveLink M2 Review vs Rode Go &amp; Lark 150\" width=\"880\" height=\"495\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ke3aBsjxlIk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">For me they work REALLY well, mostly because of how I use them\u2026 in my live streaming setup and educational videos that I make, so my distances are perhaps 1\/20th of their max and they have a pretty good sound to start off with and add a little tweaking and they sound really good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">This weekend I&#8217;ll be testing them out on a live streaming event with some friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That&#8217;s it for now\u2026 enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Live Streaming part deux!
