Movo VXR10 Pro On Camera Shotgun Microphone Review / Test (Better than Phone or Camera Audio?)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лип 2024
- Today, I have the Movo VXR10 Pro On Camera Supercardioid Shotgun Microphone in the Audio Hotline Studio! I don't usually do too many reviews for On Camera microphones, but when Movo offered to send this over, it truly peaked my curiousity. I really wanted to see just how good a small mic like this could be, and if it really is a big improvement compared to Phone or Camera Internal audio. I also wanted to push it even further and see if it could be just a great all around mic for any spoken word applications.
This mic is quite versatile! You can use it in a lot of different ways with a lot of different devices.
You can:
Plug it into your phone, iPad, Camera, Computer for better Zoom call audio, an audio recorder and basically anything that will accept either a TRS or TRRS 3.5mm cable. This gives this microphone the ability to be used by a lot of different people, with a lot of different use cases.
Check out the testing and audio samples and see if this is right for you! Every person has different expectations of audio gear. If the features are what you need, and you like the sound, then it is right for you!
If you have any additional questions, feel free to comment or email me!
Thanks for watching the Audio Hotline! I'll see you Audio Nerds next time!

I've used this mic clipped to my visor in a car for audio recording. It does a good job of rejecting background noise and not thinning the voice too much. And by going overhead plosives aren't a problem.
Great video again!
The kitchen test was freaking awesome lol
Thanks for creating a great review video!
Thanks for sharing! I thought it was well thought out and thorough.
Loved the review🥰🥰
the BEEEESSSTTTTT review ever saw.❤️
Fantastic..... Loved the cooking sequence
Glad you turned the mic around while filming the plant, (it made me giggle). 🤣. It sure sounded different. Had no idea the sound could change so drastically depending on the camera it's plugged into, or the angle and direction of the mic. The treated rooms verses non treated rooms etc. Thanks!
What I found most intriguing was how well it sounded outdoors when camera was turned towards you verses away from you. It sounded a lot better than when you went into the untreated room indoors, or spoke to the cat and said "awe what-ever". Hahaha! Sounds like something i'd say. 😉 good review! You're very talented. You put a ton of work into these videos. Hope it pays off for ya! ✌
For the love of God...please tell me the name of those sound tiles you have in the background of some of your older videos? Love the content. Subscribed!
Honnestly it sounds great. I have a Zoom with mutliple mics, including all Zoom-mics and a 1200 eur Sony Shotgun mic, Sanken Cos-lav mic etc etc... but something like this is just practical and sounds more than just decent. Ordering it riiiiiiiiight now. THanks bud!
Last one - sounded extremely solid on my PC Speakers at work
Hi mate, I LOVED that cooking sequence. Spectacular, peculiar, creative and heartwarming B-roll, if there ever was!
That's quite impressive...wonder how it compares to the other camera mics such as the Sony Shotgun.
Good review
Awesome review. Does the duo use the same mic as the vxr10 pro?
Appreciate that you also put in iphone audio examples 🤙🏽 I'm thinking of using my phone as my third/fourth camera for certain events. Btw if you did that iphone scene with the ultrawide lens that's why it looked like that. If you used the standard lens then no idea lol
Looking forward to more videos. Tons of mics out there 🥲
I'm currently considering getting a stereo mic for my r5. Considering between the sennheiser mke 440 and rode stereo x. The new Azden smx 30v or Comica traxshot could have been perfect but I'm not sold on their audio quality.
If you've ever had an experience with any of these mics or looked at their specs, would appreciate helping me choose 😵💫
Great review I think I will get this mic..now which mic is better between movo dual shot gun vs movo 10 pro? Can u make a review of these two see which one has the best quality sound?
excellent video, what is your suggestion for overhead mic in the budget, i mean NO xlr connection, noise rejection, none acustic treatmet room, i know im asking for too much, but i dont like to have a mic in front of my face when im gaming
As per usual, watched the video... Bought the mic. My Video Micro just happens to have a short in it after like 3 years so this was right on time.
Thanks man!! I appreciate it and I am glad I could help you find a new mic!
Dude, thanks for the review. Very impressive little mic regardless, but especially for the price. Glad you mentioned the iPhone 12 footage. I have the 11 and have been contemplating the 12 thinking it might have better low light performance. Yikes, doesn't look like it! Any thoughts? Thanks and sorry for the tangent.
Yeah... it was rough video quality on the 12 pro for sure. It seems like iPhones, and Phone Cameras in general, struggle with videos that have really dark objects (my wall) and really bright objects (the subject). They just don't have the dynamic range that bigger sensor cameras can achieve. Had I been in a room with a lighter wall and overall brighter scene, it would have done a much better job. They do a great job outside in daylight also, but that black wall REALLY throws them off.
If you were only going to upgrade to improve your video quality, I would probably wait.
Its really good 👌
Hey can you review the Behringer U-PHORIA STUDIO bundle please?
Enjoyable & informative video good job. I would like to ask you if you would know if this pro microphone would be good for recording drums and especially recording drum cymbals. Previously I've used my internal microphone that comes with my mid-range Android Samsung cell phone in video mode and after recording, you could hear that my cymbols are clipping and some mostly distorted so I tried an external microphone called Smartmic UC Mini that attaches through the USB c-type cable but unfortunately basically just about the same results. Do you think that this Pro microphone would resolve my issue making my cymbal sound clear without distorting or clipping? Or would this be more of an inferior Android cell phone recording issue. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you.
Hi friend. which is better to record music? the original movo or the pro movo? I need it to do speaker reviews and I want it to capture the best audio quality. What microphone do you recommend to use with my iPhone? do you recommend another reference? I really appreciate your help.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
note: i don't speak english. I used google translator.
If I ever need to record plosives I'll know what to buy. Other than that it's OK I guess?
Closing on 10k subscribers, early grats!
That's when you use the foam protector
Can it be used for shortfilms?
The headphone jack I believe is just a passthrough for the headphone signal from the TRRS plug so you don't lose out on the ability to connect headphones to the same jack as the mic. If there is latency there it's being added by the host device. Some powered mics have a jack that lets you monitor the mic before it goes off to the host device, but that's usually because those mics have a USB audio interface integrated into the mic so it's doing amplification and the like in the microphone.
Oh the bad video quality on the iPhone looked like it had a beautiful filter. It seemed to be smoothing out your skin and making your lips pinker 🤣🤣 does the iPhone have such a thing by default?
You definitely need to check out the Deity D4 with a microphone in the front and back! Super awesome choice for Vloggers or creators because it sounds better than most other shotgun microphones of this style!
I guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me.
@Joel Larry instablaster =)
@Wayne Bruno Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Wayne Bruno it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much you really help me out :D
@Joel Larry Happy to help :D
I tried this in my home office just above the camera line of sight, I clipped it to an overhead Architect lamp on my desk that I already had. This is very similar to the viewer who clipped it to the visor of his car. You can do this because it only weighs 2 ounces, not 2 pounds.
What is with the headphone output jack? I can't ever hear / audit anything when using on Canon M50 or Galaxy S10. What am I missing?
It just passes through the headphone part of the TRRS cable. If you're not using the TRRS cable or you're plugged into something that's not outputting any audio you won't hear anything. The purpose is just so you're not tying up your headphone port while the mic is plugged in.
It's equivalent to those TRRS to separate mic and headphone adapters
hey i need to ask you a quick question i got the samson r21s to do voiceovers and i do voiceovers using imovie and i turned on the mic and it simply does not work on anything not even my laptop, does it require an interface, or do you have any idea what can be wrong with it?
Hey! How are you currently plugging it into your devices? XLR to 3.5mm into the headphone jack? Are you using iMovie on your iPad or your computer?
@@AudioHotline its all good i decided to return it the customer service said it might be defective. But do you have any recommendations for a mic for imovie that would work for voiceovers for imovie on ipad?
I plan on doing car vids where I will have the mic in one place and I’ll be moving around and talking at different angles and distances What mic do you recommend?
Are you going to have some sort of field recorder to plug a mic into? Or are you wanting to try and wirelessly get the mic signal to your camera? Also, is there a particular price range you are trying to stay in?
@@AudioHotline thinking about using a dji pocket 2 , price range I suppose $80 max
Yha it all depends on the camera how good several mics can sound.
OPE! Thats what she said!!!!
7:12 Man, that high-pitched tone in the background, when you're outside with the mic plugged into the Canon, is super annoying. As you mentioned, camera amps aren't the best, but I'm wondering whether all mics plugged into that camera make that noise, or if it's an issue with this mic. That's a deal breaker.
That was actually an external noise, not the mic at all. We live kind of close to a hospital and I have noticed when the life flight is about to land, or take off, that noise starts happening, it’s a pretty annoying noise. Luckily we can’t hear it inside.
@@AudioHotline Thanks for answering! I was wondering if that might be the case, and it's useful info for your viewers. I hope the sound is not too relentless for you.
Pickled WHAT !!???
Peanutses 🥜
@@AudioHotline 🤣🤣
Piper Peter what are you doing my guy
“Peter piper picked a patch of pickled peanut-ses”
I haven't been able to get this mic to work with my iPhone 12 Pro. I would love to know how you were able to accomplish connection.
And if you should happen to answer this comment and tell me about MFI adapters, that won't be helpful. I'll send you a photo of my pile of cables, adapters, dongles, (I don't even know how to spell dongels, dongles, blah, blah, blah). I'm disappointed, no, disgusted with this mic.
I feel cheated. Came for the Movo to Fujifilm listen as the thumbnail hinted I might find that. But no. Nice video otherwise.
The indoor vlogging test and kitchen scene was done with the XT4.
Also the “untreated room test”
