The Aston Halo is over $400 and you don't even have room to put your script in there to read it!

now it's in a bundle with the their audio interface. Vocaster Two Studio for arount 100€ (interface, mic, headphones).

I was about to buy tank 3 and then i saw this video. Now i am wondering should i go for AM8! or may be podmic since fifine tank 3 isnt worth the price. You make sense as tank 3 is jumping the price range its worth considering another industry proven option

How exactly do the OC16 and OC18 compare strictly as far as sound for vocals? Really torn between the two. I’m a singer/songwriter wanting to upgrade from an AT2020 (so either will be a step up!). I’ve read the OC16 has a few dbs more self-noise but wondering if they sound very different as far as clarity/frequency.

I just got a akg d5. I like it better than my e835 and my sure. I didn't ge5 to compare it to my sennhauser e935 yet or my ev nd96.which I really love for feedback resistance. The sennhauser picks up more nuances from the vocals but feedbacks alot more if u have a band around u or a really small room with no sound dampening. The akg is more powerful. I had to turn down my vocals alot compared to every other mike mentioned ☝️up there. But not too much feedback . I might come back after I try it ne t to the ev at home. Im traveling and busking right now.

This guy’s voice and camera presence is so reassuring. I could watch his videos for hours 😂 Just bought this mic, excited to try it.

Please put that content creation class together when you can! I'll sign right up. I'd love to learn from you.

So you would go with the maono pd200 vs tank 3 if price was the same?

Rubberfied plastic, nice, I really like me some sticky interface surface in a few yrs. And no real knob, yeah…no.

Love the Friday show! 🤘🏼😎

took 3 seconds to realize B is shitty lumpy NT2A

When you drag race a Range Rover against a Mercedes-AMG car, initially the Rover pulls ahead. However, it struggles in corners and soon falls behind. Similarly, comparing the sound quality of two microphones using only a voice won’t reveal all issues. Have a talented singer perform with each microphone to assess how well they handle complex phrases and accurate notes. You'll find that in the cheaper option, it's like inserting an egg and discovering it's tilted at the other end. In Indian scales, Sruti represents a critical frequency zone that uniquely characterizes classical music pieces based on note transitions. Neumann microphones are known for capturing this essence. While a $100 microphone can elevate a recording artist to stardom, the choice of microphone itself tells a different story.

Why Are You Being So Disgusting ?

O.K. It Took Me 3 Days To Watch This Video. I Got It On The First Day.

DONT PURCHASE THEIR EQUIPMENT This brand's hardware relies heavily on firmware updates, which can lead to potential compatibility issues down the line. Additionally, when they release newer interfaces, older models might not receive full support, potentially pushing you towards an upgrade. In my experience, resolving technical issues with their customer service took over two weeks, and the solutions offered weren't entirely satisfactory. This has led me to recommend exploring other brands to avoid similar frustrations.

Just ordered a 102, which should be a wee bit of a step up from my $99 MXL. 😁

Thanks for sharing. Clever comparison. It took a little while before I realised that the whole video end-to-end was a test, letting the mics speak for themselves. I guessed correctly, but I have fallan in love with the NTG3 again. I am a big fan of the 416 but do agree, one is not necessarily better, they are just different. I can see myself tweaking either in post ever so slightly depending on the person's voice or as part of a creative choice, but that is it. The workflow for either is going to be a breeze. Mmm, do I buy my shotgun mic now, or do I watch another 1000 comparison videos? 😊

The p120 sounds very muddy the MXL 770 sounds nice and crisp

So the issue you had with the laptop. Was it an issue with Antelope hardware/software, or an issue with the laptop/Windows? If the support engineer had to take over the laptop i'm guessing the latter?

this thing on sale for 88 dollars, is it worth it? coming from a blue snowball, will use for general chatting and meetings. I already have a scarlett solo that a family member is not using. Or should i save some and go for fifine am8, or the behringer xm8500

thanks for the review, Can you suggest me something very similar but WITH companion app please? I don't care even if it's cost is even double

Hi, I wanna know something. I need a sound interface for recording vocals and live streaming. What is the best between mixer and sound card?

Yes more history

I’m down. But if I’m gonna go get the supposed replacement of the iconic Beta 58, I think I also want Shure to make it LOOK like a Shure mic and not try to make it look like a Neumann KMS 105…. I realize they don’t want us to see a Beta 57 out of it but come on, Shure, give us something ICONIC like you always have.

$58.00 right now on Amazon.

This is all very confusing stuff I have the Shure sm58 and have always thought the audio was really quiet so on my interface (behringer u-phoria umc404hd ) I have been trying to get levels at between -12 to -6 db while recording to try and make it louder with out clipping and then further increasing the audio in post after recording. So it seems like I should try to aim for lower db range and then just increase it by much more in post.

The old adage stands true as covid taught us. Wash your hands.

Behringer is really good

thanks for the INFO!!!!

I have been using the same sm58 units for a decade. 2 or three times a week, occasionally more. I also bought - a decade ago - 2 EV mikes where the advert showed them being bounced off a wall, run over by cars etc - which is why I bought them, but I kept those as backups just in case the 58's failed. We never used them because the 58's never did fail. Every few years I would take an EV out of the bag to test it. Upshot is both EV's died in storage -never used at gigs and the 58's continue to this very day -and will be used again tonight ! We have had zero problems with the 58's over more than a decade. At nearly 3 times the price of a 58, I'm not seeing a huge amount of attraction in the Nexadyne....

I really want to know the prox effect compared to the KSM8

If the am8 was in a solid aluminum shell, it would be a super soilid mic for almost any user imo. I just got one and Im very impressed by it.

Am i the only one that is super disappointed with the design? The black and silver SM58/Beta58 look is so iconic, no clue why Shure decided to ditch that design language and make a mic that looks one RGB light away from being a gamer accessory

One overpriced microphone replaced by an even more overpriced microphone.

Ableton live is the easiest and most overlooked daw to use. From the first groove swing to mastering. Minus mouse clicks(pt,pre sonus,logic ,etc)and list searching that doesn’t move if you click the wrong place on your screen.

How about, instead of putting a giant black blob over your face, place a small diaphragm condenser, shotgun mic, or boundary microphone, slightly out of frame? It baffles me why anyone would use either of these mics in a VIDEO application

As of today, the SM48 is $69 on Amazon. It’s shocking what the microphone market has done in the last few years

Have you tried dropping the Nexadine on the ground ? Their robustness contributes to making the SM58 and 57 so all-around.

Just remember that if you speak moistly.......

My favorite was A! So glad it turned out to be the OG. Great video!

For live performances, there's very little reason to spend more than $100 on wired vocal mics. For recording, there's very little reason to spend less than $300 on vocal mics.

I want to save up to get one. I saw this one voice over artist who decided to live in a van and got one herself so he can work from her van life while still having a great audio sound.

I got a hum in mine. I only unboxed it today. I'm trying to use this mic on a ur44c. Literally been sitting in the box since about 6 months cos I can't seem to get rid of it. I heard there was a problem with the 770 but I don't know... anybody know the fix my fellow producers

But is it built like a 58'?

Very good Review, thank you 😀 You have covered everything there is to know

Gigcaster 8 would also be good for 4 people group. Has bluetooth for seamless phone calls. 4 headphones. Tons of voice, singing, and guitar effects... ...and Auto Tune!!! Drop Mic. (Not the Shur SM7B; too expensive for my dropping budget)
