[QUOTE="Gonz, post: 6613653, member: 72493"] You can get in-line Mics for about $15 or so on ebay. If you do this, it's easy in that you don't need to add a separate 12v power source for the microphone. However, it means the mic will be within 10 inches or so of the camera. In the videos I posted from last weekend, the microphone is under the hood, just behind the passenger side headlight. I kind of like the sound there. I can hear when I'm on/off the gas, can hear the tires & even the brakes. Oh, and if I'm running behind an unmuffled Sentra, I can hear that too...... Not sure that I'd want the mic. down there if I had a screw type supercharger on the car, though. In the past I have run the microphone inside the car as well. This means I had to splice the microphone power lead. NOt a big deal, but just more wiring to deal with. The way it is now, I leave the RCA leads under the hood running into the cabin permanently & i just disconnect the camera at one end & the camcorder at the other when I'm done. For comparison, here is an older video that shows what it sounds like with the microphone inside the car: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gDgh_F1iQk"]YouTube - Shenandoah Circuit - Two Laps WRX[/ame] It's from my first weekend at Shenandoah. I made this video to help my brother before his first day at Shenandoah last weekend. Most of the talking you can hear is my instructor. Gonz.
