There are many different kind of microphones in the market. Get the one which gives good sound quality and the characteristics are what you need. Omnidirectional microphones record sound coming from all rections. Cardoir microphones pick the sound coming from front and attenuate sounds coming from other directions quite much. With cardoid microphone you pick less envirnmental noise when you talk to it, but you know how to talk to it.
Cheap multimedia microphones are usually omnirections and will generally sound bad. The problem is that you can't get good resuluults with some soundcard when you connect professional microphone to them (for example Sound Blaster family of soundcards form Pro to 32 have too low -20dBV (100mV or 0.1Volt) to be usable with any professional dynamic microphone).
Bagaimana cara nak buat siaran langsung untuk ke internet event dari tempat aku ni. Apakah peralatan yang diperlukan dan apakah Software yang mesti ada...maksudnya disini dari handycam ke terus masuk boardcast..streaming live video ...
Di sini aku buat rujukan untuk digunakan pada masa akan datang..
Items Needed:
Video Camera with Firewire
Windows PC with Firewire
Windows Media Encoder 9 (free)
Optional:
External Microphone
Windows Media Services
Before starting you will need to figure out where you will host your stream. Windows Media Encoder can host up to four streams which is about the max most home/office Internet connections can handle. To support more clients, we use a dedicated Windows server running Windows Media Services on a 100 Mb connection at ServerBeach. Other options are services such as Christian Video Channel, VitalStream or ChurchQuest (plans start at $8.95/month).
If you will be hosting on your own, make sure you have sufficient upstream bandwidth. We usually run a 387 Kbps stream, which with a 2 Mbit upstream you could serve 4 to 5 clients. (There is quite a bit of overhead due to buffering, etc.) Also, you will have to open a few ports on your firewall.
For this example we will be using our dedicated windows server.
1. Connect video camera to PC via firewire, Windows XP should automatically detect it.
2. Fire up Windows Media Encoder, the new session wizard should pop, select the “Broadcast a live event” wizard.
3. Under Device Options, select your video camera for both the video and audio (unless you are using an external mic connected to the sound card).
4. We will push to our Windows Media server, this avoids opening inbound ports on the firewall.
5. Server and Publishing Point
Server Name: DNS or IP address of server running Windows Media Services
Publishing Point: Choose a name for your stream (does not need to already exist)
6. Under Encoding Options we chose the default setting of 387 Kbps under “Live Broadcast video”
7. We usually don’t archive the file using the streaming box because of the reduced quality (recording quality is based on the Encoding Options we just chose), we just slide a tape into the camcorder.
8. We don’t include any videos for an intro or conclusion, but you can easily do so.
9. Add in all the relevant information about your stream.
10. Review the settings and click finish.
11. You will be prompted for a user name and password, enter an account that will allow you to create/manage publishing points on the streaming server.
12. Start Encoding
13. Tell your users to point their web browsers to http://servername/publishingpoint

Country music (or country and western) is a blend of popular musical forms originally found in the Southern United States and the Appalachian Mountains. It has roots in traditional folk music, Celtic music, gospel music and old-time music and evolved rapidly in the 1920s.[1]
The term country music began to be used in the 1940s when the earlier term hillbilly music was deemed to be degrading and the term was widely embraced in the 1970s, while country and Western has declined in use since that time, except in the United Kingdom and Ireland, where it is still commonly used.
In the Southwestern United States a different mix of ethnic groups created the music that became the Western music of the term country and Western. The term "country music" is used today to describe many styles and subgenres.
Country music has produced two of the top selling solo artists of all time. Elvis Presley, who was known early on as “the Hillbilly Cat” and was a regular on the radio program Louisiana Hayride,[ went on to become a defining figure in the emergence of rock and roll. Contemporary musician Garth Brooks, with 220 million albums sold, is the top-selling solo artist in U.S. history.
While album sales of most musical genres have declined, country music experienced one of its best years in 2006, when, during the first six months, U.S. sales of country albums increased by 17.7 percent to 36 million. Moreover, country music listening nationwide has remained steady for almost a decade, reaching 77.3 million adults every week, according to the radio-ratings agency Arbitron, Inc.
