Since I had some extra time today, I went ahead and made a short video about my motovlogging setup. In this video, I’m driving a desk and taking you through my helmet setup that I currently use. What I’m showing here is my most effective setup for video & audio capture. Good audio capture while speeding around on a motorcycle can be a challenge. I think I’ve found a sweet spot when it comes to balancing wind & engine noise still being able to capture a usable voice track.
