Lol😂

He doesn't have a 3d brain that can flip things mentally 😂

Also it works how he wants, but it just turned around 😂 if you turn around the mic and look at it from behind, it turns up the gain clockwise

It works for all mics and headsets. So its very good

Sonar has been incredible. I've been using it for a few weeks now, I don't have any steelseries peripherals and the software was seamless and easy to setup and work through. The open eq working for any devices you are using is awesome.

I wanted to know which boom arm too. If anyone knows, drop it here please

i also am curious of the preamp in the mixer. What made the elgato wave so great bang for buck wise was the preamp making it capable of running a gain heavy microphone like the Shure Sm7b.

I can't hear any difference~

You're better off with your setup. The plosives on this thing are horrendous. I tested it when it released.

I don't think so

The plosives are what broke this mic for me. I tested it out because I've used Sonar for over a year now and love it - was excited to see SS do a mic. But my god this thing has NO built in pop filter. It was picking up even the lightest wind movement from my ceiling fan. No idea why more ppl don't address this because it was THAT bad. Even having the mic around 12 or so inches from my mouth didn't fully eliminate plosives. They made a compelling product but completely gave planted on practical usability and function. Unfortunate.

Nope you need to use it if you don’t want to

Genuine question, is that only with the microphone? I use a SteelSeries headset and isn't nearly as heavy on performance (around 300 mbs) I am wondering since I am considering it.

Well, the Alias Pro has the ability of 2 PC setup and Sonar is being routed that way. Are you using Sonar and Sonar Mixer as well ? @@notus97

i had originally gone with the wireless version but returned it for the wired version because the mic sounds better

the sonar software itself is free. and can use with any audio peripherals is amazing.

It's over like double the price though

i think its about $100 more if you account the microphone. but i think there is a lot to say for the addition of the dual usb c access. which i do no believe el gato has.@@daymianhogue1634

looks like the elgato low profile

I mean if your using obs or others you can you VST's.

Make sure the switch different devices is turn on in the settings

since bass means lower freq sounds, i think it will be the opposite

@@Weepsy_ well I guess my wording wasn’t very good, but unrelated to clarity, will my voice pick up better if I have a deep voice

But you’re failing to mention my Sennheiser is $999 and is a shotgun mic. The Alias starts at $179 and is a cardioid condenser mic used at the setup for streaming. Two completely different mics and use cases

Concerning the prices, that is of course true but i didn't deem this information important to the point i was trying to make, as price also wasn't part of the conversation when you talked diapraghm sizes in the video. It was only about the generalisation that bigger capsule provide more presence to your voice. I would understand if you were to argue that Large diapraghm's tend to be a bit more boosted in the midrange from about 4khz compared to smaller ones, which are generally more flat. Now whilst midrange is where most sounds lie when streaming or playing instruments, having a mic like a small diapraghm condenser that deviates a bit from the Rest of the sound is what i'd argue makes it easier for your voice to cut through game audio and whatnot. Which is what i would call a boost in vocal presence, but this is to be interpreted by the individual, as the term isn't all that well defined. When you're talking usecases for microphones, i don't see why that should matter in a streaming Situation as pencil mics are a great option for indoor Vocal recordings and also help to isolate your voice from let's say a noisy Keyboard or Computer Fan with their more focused pickup-pattern and are therefore just as viable for streaming if not more so, but this just depends on your Situation and preferences. Again though, this is not really relevant for what i was arguing. But honestly thank you for the Quick and calm-mannered answer, it's rarity on the Internet and i very much appreciate that. And sorry for the harshness of my first comment

@@Armbrust210ok buddy. “$800 price difference isn’t important information”

@@Sortamike Yes as the conversation was just about characteristics. And for example, in professional voice over, where you'd be very close to the mic not unlike streaming, the MKH416 or other SDC Mics are still a popular choice just for their vocal presence even if a large diapraghm were an option. Like how you might choose the 416 over the more expensive Neumann TLM103 for that reason. Which uses a larger diapraghm

Sonar is way better than voicemeeter with the same features but more user friendly and for me works way better

@@footballtalk4857 Dude that is completely fine, whatever feels better for you... i tried sonar but didn't like some of the bloat the software had, for me it felt less responsive and i didn't even see the option to control it with MIDI (that one might have been on me).

@@footballtalk4857 VM-s UI definitely takes time to get used to, but that is why i use a hardware midi interface so i don't have to look at it. Also i have set up MIDI over the network so i can trigger multiple devices at the same time with my phone or any other MIDI enabled device. I hope this doesn't sound too complicated since it really is not, if you want more info on how to set it up just ask.

@@k1vd03_2 I mean it's not for everyone but you can always turn off the things you don't like with voicemeeter for me the audio would sound weird or not record at all

You must be confused often because there’s clearly 2 mics….

​@@randomfrankpmy bad.....sorry for the stupid comment😂

Steelseries sonar has been there for a little minute and it works with any mic/headset

@@footballtalk4857 you must be new to elgato

Hmm I actually like the design it stands out from the same old design mic to me
