Hey guys! Here is my review and comparison of the MAONO AU-A04 vs the MAONO AU-PM401 to find out which condenser microphone kit is better. The microphones are both affordable studio microphone bundle kits, but in my opinion one is definitely better than the other. Let me know what you think!

Thanks for the review. I checked another review as well and while I definitely prefer the PM401 (based on your observations), but I noticed a few differences. 1) Another reviewer did an unboxing of the MAONO AU-A04 microphone and his did NOT have a small microphone tripod (the silver one). Either it was a temporary inclusion when you originally bought it or it was exclusive to your microphone. He also said the stand is very flimsy and despite the shock mount, there is some background noise if you bump into it. 2) The Price is way different now (especially in Canada). Full price for AU-A04 is $89.99 (CAD) and Full price for AU-PM401 is $109.99 (CAD). Amazon Sale price brought them down to $60.39 and $76.49 respectively (in CAD). $16 is more of difference than $5 making the AU-A04 the better priced option....but honestly, I'd rather go with the better mic PM401 or get a cheap entry mic like the Blue-Yeti mics (they've risen in price by $30 in the last 6 months and haven't gone back down, which is why I haven't bought a microphone yet). So that's where I'm at. Thanks for the advice.

Hi Tobias! I was wondering... in your professional opinion... if you thought both of these microphones could be used for a 2 person podcast? Or would it sound too weird with the difference in models? Thanks!

@TobiasHolenstein 3 жыл бұрын

I don't think it would sound weird, but the only problem is that I don't think you would be able to use both mics to record at the same time, because in audio recording softwares (as far as I know) you can only select one input device (one usb microphone) at a time. That's kind of the drawback with usb mics. When people are using more than one microphone at a time they are usually using a multi channel audio interface where they can plug in several XLR microphones and the recording software will recognize the audio interface as the audio device

@carlmercado2474 2 жыл бұрын

hey man I was just wondering, I haven't watched a review of the MAONO AU-A04 with an interface. Would you recommend it?

@TobiasHolenstein 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Carl, so the A04 is a USB mic, so you wouldn't need an interface (unless you just wanted one for monitoring the audio). But if you already have an interface and if it has phantom power, I would just recommend getting a regular XLR condenser mic. Feel free to let me know if you have more questions, I'll try to explain as best I can

Hi Tobias. I hope you have a great day. I have a question I will be glad if you help me. So I bought a Maono AU-PM401 today and as you know it doesn't have On/Off switch. So when I shut down my computer it is still on with green indicator. My question is that when I want to shut down my PC should I leave it like this or should I unplug it? Or should I do something else? I googled my question but I didn't find any answer that I can understand. Instead I got even more confused when I read about Phantom Power. I will be glad to if you friend help me.

@TobiasHolenstein 2 ай бұрын

That's interesting, maybe that is something unique to the kind of PC you have. When I turn my Mac off, everything plugged into the USB ports turn off. Personally I would probably unplug it, but I don't think it would do any damage if you leave it plugged in

How will these 2 mics fare compared to phantom powered mics in terms of gain?

@TobiasHolenstein 3 жыл бұрын

So from what I understand, I don't think phantom power will affect the amount of gain you can get with a mic. It's pretty much just an electricity source that is needed to power an XLR condenser mic. However, if you are using an audio interface that supplies phantom power (like the Focusrite Scarlett interfaces) you can increase your input gain substantially more

I'm not sure how similar they are to the AU-MH501, but they look pretty similar. Eventually I started having this problem where the AU-MH601s audio started cutting out on one side of the headphones and I think it was due to a bad connection with the cable, since the cable is completely detachable. It looks like the cable on the AU-MH501s is not detachable so I don't think you will have this problem

Hi there! It sounds to me like you may be better off recording with a dynamic mic, which won't be quite as sensitive as a condenser. Although, if you still want to try to make the A04 work, maybe practice moving away from the mic for loud parts and try positioning your mouth at least 8 inches away from the mic at all times and don't point the capsule directly at your mouth. Hope that helps!

what other soundcard can I use with MAONO AU PM401? Cause their soundcard is kinda expensive for me. So I need other soundcard that will work to maono au pm401.

@TobiasHolenstein 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Danica, with the PM401 you shouldn't need a soundcard. Withe these USB microphones, the soundcard is build into the mic

The PM401 I bought broke after like less than 6 months. And even earlier the monitoring jack broke. Been using my zoom h1 instead, but recently bought the AU40, gonna try it out for home use.

Sorry to hear that! Do you know what caused the PM401 to break? Or did it just stop working one day

@TobiasHolenstein 3 жыл бұрын

Hi, I actually don't think it will work with the V8 sound card, because it looks like the V8 sound card only has a 3.5mm mic input and a 1/4" mic input. I think you would need a regular XLR mic and not a USB mic

Hi Olivia, for recording videos, what I usually do is I record the video on my camera and I record the audio separately on my computer and then I sync the audio up with the video in editing
