Dude so good to hear from you! Thanks 😊 I’m having my own little renaissance over here. Getting back into producing/recording music too (which will be on a diff channel).

@@EricMakingWaves Sweet! Can't wait to see it!! I've been doing some Photography pretty solidly lately! .. working my way twords doing some video content eventually!

That's amazing. I actually haven't done much studio work with these mics (besides podcasting). In an untreated room that makes a ton of sense. Thanks for the comment!

I have no idea how I missed this! I'm glad to be back :) I'm actually gonna do a follow up video on pop filters. They're way better than the puffy wind screens, just a little more hassle is all. When are you making the comeback??

@@EricMakingWaves Was going to be this month, but fires. Slowly creating my next film. Stretching myself working on blocking and lighting. Then the comeback tour.

Any generic 1-5/8" foam pop filter is fine. It has excess high end anyway.

Did you ever find anything?

Thanks that means a lot! I use the Scarlett 18i8 Gen 2. I record video and audio through Vmix.

@@EricMakingWaves thanks eric! you still use the interface?

You’re gonna need an audio interface. It’s a box that takes the analogue signal from your mic and turns it into a digital signal your computer can handle. Check out the Scarlett 2i2. It’s a great starter.

@@EricMakingWaves Thanks for the reply! I thought dynamic microphones didn't need additional power in order to work with a PC.

@@dashodashev they don't but they're pretty quiet, the preamp from the audio interface takes care of that without adding a lot of noise.

Xm8500 mas opaco y oscuro el sonido en cambio la e835 mas claro.

First of all, you've got talent keep going man. Second, I think the sound you've got a good sound on your latest episode. As far as tweaking EQ, so much of it is down to personal preference. My advice would be to only make adjustments when you're listening back to your recordings. When you're recording your own voice it's easy to "mis-hear" things because you're hearing the headphones and the sound of yourself in the room. Listen to the playback, tweak, record again and repeat. Traditionally rap is done on condensers, but I understand for the sake of the live stream wanting to stick to dynamic. With either mic, to get that hard-hitting rap sound, you'll want a compressor. For live streaming, a hardware compressor might work best. The DBX 166xl (used) or DBX 286s are good and relatively cheap. Watch a few videos on compression technique and I'm sure you'll get the hang of it! Thanks for dropping by! Best of luck.

@@EricMakingWaves I’ll do my research - thanks again Eric. Love and support to you

Great questions. The e845 is even better at preventing bleed/spill so if you're in a truly noisy situation it may be worth the extra $20. It will be a little more finicky with where the speaker is located relative to the mic though. I don't think the e855 is in production anymore and to be honest I don't know much about it. Thanks for stopping by Frank!

I prefer the e835. It rejects unwanted sounds better.

@@EricMakingWaves I got a shure SM58 to compare...the sound was a bit more honky and yet less clear than the e835. I think it comes down to the 'presence bumps': For me, a more hi-fi/refreshing sound on the e835, with less fatigue, flatter mids. Now I don't EQ the e835 anymore...it's nice as is...like it more with time.

Yes, anywhere you have a lot of background noise a mic like this works great. You could also try the Sennheiser e845. It has even more sound rejection, but the down side is you need people to talk *directly* into it.

@@EricMakingWaves Does e835 also have to be pointed directly to the speaker?

That's a huge compliment my friend :) Thanks!
