Noise Cancelling Mic - sheppy1 - 25:th-Apr-2016
Hey All [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]
Long shot but does anyone know of any noise canceling microphones that can be used with my head unit? Don't have to be cheap... Just good.
Thanks

Parrot do one. It's got two mics in a U shape. You wouldn't be able to hide it though

RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - sheppy1 - 25:th-Apr-2016
Ooooo that looks smart! Any idea if it would plug into a standard MIC in Port though?

What size Jack is on the stereo? If it's a 3.5mm then you'll need an adapter as it's a small Jack.

Ahhh right yeah mine is 3.5mm. Also my plug is like this
And the parrot one is like this (has more black lines)
Does that matter?

I wouldn't have thought so but I could be wrong. I'm not sure what the lines are all about.

Hi Sheppy1,
Sorry to interrupt your thread,
in the roof factory location. Is this type of mic not decent quality? Ive ordered the Android head unit but not looking to use the
bundled mic as id like to hide it away.
Thanks

Hey it's fine [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]
It is for that year... Right you get one with the unit which will only be long enough to peek out of the facia and Sit on your dash and that's fine in most situations but when on motorways and loud roads the other person struggles to hear me.
The one I got to sit in the factory roof location is fine when stationary but the other person can't hear me full stop when I'm moving!
I'm now looking at this Sony one as it has the 3.5mm Jack required

Bought the Sony one... People report it being great at cancelling noise but no one said they used it with a car... So will see how I get on!

RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - Rymaan82 - 26:th-Apr-2016
Ah ok, will look forward to your findings on the Sony mic!
RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - sheppy1 - 26:th-Apr-2016
Will report back [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES] for now I'll stick it in the same place as the one I got with the head unit... Which is just peeking out if the facia of the centre console. I may get an extension cable for it and run it to the roof lining too (if all goes well that is)

RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - bhalay207 - 26:th-Apr-2016
Did you insulate it?

RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - sheppy1 - 26:th-Apr-2016
I didn't but i also had it dangling below the roof lining as a test with the sponge mic cover on and still had the same issue...
RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - Rusty2009 - 27:th-Apr-2016
You could try covering the mic in Bluetac (not where the holes are).
@sheppy1 as I said last night I need to get back onto my mic but my plan is to simply glue the factory casing back together and then cover it in bluetac.

Done! Looks nifty too [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES] will test it over the next few days to see if it works well

Doesn't look too bad actually, nice work. Hope it works!
RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - sheppy1 - 27:th-Apr-2016
Cheers mate! Seems to work well so far on calls when I'm going around 30mph... Will test it when I'm going on the motorway to work one day this week and see how it goes [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Awesome well ill keep that in mind, be no doubt asking for your help/tips at some point along the way, yours and others info on this forum has been a brilliant insight. My mods start next week with the head unit.
RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - sheppy1 - 28:th-Apr-2016
That's great to hear you've already got a lot from the forum! Everyone on here is very helpful [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES] can't wait to see what you think of the head unit and what other mods you do!

RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - mrtc - 29:th-Apr-2016
have i dreamt it or is the microphone you bought for clipping on your tie,,
if it works in the car then thats cool but when i looked it up there was loads of people in business suits wearing them lol
RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - sheppy1 - 29:th-Apr-2016
You're not wrong! Hahaha but yes it's meant for clipping to a suit or something but works fine in the car lol

I can't believe none of you have said it looks like a battery stuck to his dash, it's the first thing I said to him :-P
RE: Noise Cancelling Mic - sheppy1 - 30:th-Apr-2016
Hahahaha again thanks rusty! I can't stop thinking that now every time I look at it!
And @tonto yeah tried it on the motorway and it seemed spot on!! Will keep testing though [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]
