I got a cheap lapel mike online. I think I paid less than$10.00. I put it in the elastic pocket on the hump on the passenger side. Work great.

Patrick, here is the mic I bought. Can't beat the price and so compact you can place it most anywhere.

I have one vid but it's too large and I don't know how to cut it back. Any suggestions on software that someone of advanced years can understand? I'm tired of trying to find an 8 year old to help me with this stuff

your pc should have windows movie maker on it. should be fairly simple to just click and drag the movie to the desired length. if you have a mac i think imovie works in a similar fashion, but bama dave is the mac expert

I finally figured out how to edit the clip I shot on the last Raleigh drive.



Here is a link giving the audio with the mic positioned in the pocket on the passenger side hump.

nice, thanks lee. its definitely better than the gopro internal mic. i do hear some rustling feedback though also that mic doesn't seem to use batteries, and from what i have researched on the gopro forums, the mic port is not powered suggesting an external mic with its own power source would be beneficial

 

Just got mine in a week ago, have to start using it so it's good to go for the dragon.
