I am trying to record quality audio for some videos that I am making, they will have 2 people talking to each other in them. If there was 1 person I would be able to record it using a smartphone and a lavalier mic, is there any budget solution to record 2 people? I know I could use wireless mics but they're pretty expensive. I dont think 2 smartphones and mics would work and 2 lavs into one phone would be impractical. Has anyone done something similar before?

DJExile posted:You're recording the two of them like they're sitting down and doing an interview? And when you say "budget solution", what kind of a budget do you mean? They aren't just sitting and talking but they're also moving around demonstrating how a machine works. There isn't any background noise, music etc. Budget - around $100 or so maybe?

It's not a one off, I can buy these zoom recorder things no problem, however how will it work when I need to record the audio of 2 people that are walking around a machine? I could buy 2 recorders but then I can't really merge the 2 recordings?

Slowhanded posted:If the people need to move around, you could either do two recorders or one recorder and wireless lavs. For the former, what are you doing to sync the audio to the video in the first place? If you're slating (be it with sticks, clapping, whatever) just use that and sync them in post. I'm not sure what software you're using here, but even Audacity can do a simple mixdown. Wont that mush up the sound though? If you have one camera and one recorder, you'd sync the voice and video and replace the cameras onboard audio with the one from your sound recorder. If you have one camera and two recorders, how do you "merge" the two recordings into one?

Shellman posted:That sounds like a good way to drive your listeners crazy. I'm not sure if that would work? If you have two people talking to each other and they each have a recorder. It's inevitable that the other persons microphone will record your voice as well as theirs. Will this work OK in audacity as the there will be three tracks, the camera one can be discarded, then you have 2 that need to be "merged", this is where my problem stems from.
