Oh How Original Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 How is it for wind noise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamiyafanboy Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 (edited) See my full review here on the bike The wind noise is worse than my shoei but its not horrendous, I feel like I am connected to my surroundings more as I can hear more Edited June 17, 2020 by tamiyafanboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I want to reduce wind noise in my videos, no matter where I put my mic or how well protected it is, I still get bad wind noise, it's really frustrating, so I can only put it down to my helmet.

tamiyafanboy Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 Oh I see what helmet have you got? I recorded that video above and you can hear me OK even on faster stretches. I just used a mic connected to my phone, the free handsfree thing you get have you seen Teapotone he uses one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 You can hear my voice in the videos nice and clear, but there is still background wind noise, even after I have done all I can with the frequency in post processing, it's a frustrating annoyance. I have a Nolan N64... I've got a new HJC to try, hopefully that will be better. Have a watch here, you'll see what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it does sound good although I've now sold the TDM, in a manner of speaking, to my Dad since he needs something more comfortable for our longer rides and isn't getting any younger, also can't get finance or anything of that nature, I am his finance I have purchased another bike though as my 'new' bike.

Tamiyacowboy Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) for yall having wind in the mic problems thers a little trick you can use . first of you want a piece of fur you will sew this into a little mic hood and have it over the mic shoved into your helmet , what you also have to do is NOT have the mic near the front of the chin bar , most helmets have vents here and the wind can seep through at higher speeds a good place to have it is mounted on the side of the chinbar and close to your cheek this will help alot, another added measure is using a chin curtain this will help stop wind curling up into the helment from the chin area and under the chin bar of the helmet . you will need to just do plenty of test videos and play them back each time tweeking where the mic is placed untill you get a decent sweet spot oh and i ride with a scorpion ADX 1 Edited July 5, 2020 by Tamiyacowboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
