I had one complaint that I wasn&#8217;t able to use an external mic, because Multi-Cam simply didn&#8217;t have an option to choose between microphones. I tried to use a USB mic plugged into the iPad but I think because I had to use not only the Camera Connection Kit but also the 9 pin to 30 pin dock connector adapter, the iPad just said it wasn&#8217;t supported.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: left; margin: 5px;\" src=\"https:\/\/podfeet.com\/NosillaCast\/NC_2014\/NC_2014_06_22\/projive.png\" alt=\"ProJive showing xor and mic input\" width=\"300\" height=\"181\" \/>This week I remembered that ages ago Steve bought me a device called the ProJive XLR from CableJive that might do the trick. Big girl mics have XLR connectors, which is a three-pin connector, and the ProJive accepts the XLR connector. On the other end it has an audio connector that you plug into the headphone jack on the iOS device. I&#8217;ll never understand how you can use a microphone by plugging into a headphone jack, but it actually works. The ProJive also has a monitor cable so you can plug in a set of headphones to monitor your own audio.<\/p>\n<p>I plugged my Heil PR40 into the ProJive, and the audio jack into the iPad and fired up MultiCam and it worked perfectly &#8211; good audio AND video!<\/p>\n<p>One other note, last week during the live show I hung up on the audience from the $400 Mac OS app Wirecast Studio, and then fired up RecoLive&#8217;s Switcher iPad app and I successfully sent video to the live audience over on Justin.tv. There was much enjoyment! Steve and I got excited that I could actually do the live show this way till we realized that if I do it that way, my microphone won&#8217;t actually record into GarageBand \u2026 so there would be no podcast!
