Hi Danny, excellent take on Hi $ v. Low $ Mics. I'm taking a self-imposed break for 3 days from WR, new sub & viewer. IMO I believe that every new YTuber/Vloggers believes they need the latest & greatest, but "Open Condenser" Mics & build quality have changed SO much & dropped in cost since 2019-Covid era when everyone & their sister decided to try & turn to YT as a revenue stream. 🤔 My only concern is longevity in any sub $80-$120 mic NOT from a major manufacturer+ warranty. Made in China tech, especially on Amazon usually are sold under @ least 3 different brands for broader market saturation. I'm pretty sure if you were in a band, you had @ least 2 Shure SM58's 😁. 🤔 Perhaps a vid if you haven't done 1 yet on different types of Mics. Basically everything vocal RN is Open Condenser design. I've used pretty much every type from plate mics to ? IMO I like & emulate Finneas 's travel/carry on, setup & the only reason I have an 🍎M2/16gig laptop + $120 Open Condenser Mic, PreAmp, Studio grade older AKAI headphones but I don't carry around a MIDI controller. Too bulky. Hey, if it's good enough for him to win 2or 3 "Best Producer, Best Engineering , Best Album Grammy's+an Academy Award, it's good enough for me, just use different brands but similar setup. I like to play with audio, mixer, warping, definitely video & DJ software @ times & stay up to date on gear & software. Creators get millions of viral views from recreating famous songs in real time using just an iPhone. Crazy, but a fun 5 minute vid to watch.
Of course if your Beyonce or Adele for instance, you're probably singing into a $30k-$130k Sennheiser.......& IMO & experience, the urban legend of "saving it in the mix" isn't possible. A bad take is a bad take, or session.
I wasn't dissing your KB skills previously. That looping clip just cracked me up. & I come from a competitive classical piano background music wise from 4yo-23yo. Music /Piano was my undergrad Major, then Minor, when I figured out getting a job w/a music degree, even in the industry in LA was too many years & NOBODY CARED. Unless you graduated from Juilliard, & got an MA as well (Berklee SOM is a joke IMO & they'll take anyone who can get enough financial aid or pay). & 2nd year thru Grad school Music Theory class was usually @ 8:30 am & 1/2 way across campus. NOT a morning person that age & switched my Undergrad Major my last year.
Point is nobody needs a band anymore to make good music, or a band. Even live. Ed Sheeran proved that years ago when he sold out Wembley for 3? Nights & it was just him, a guitar, mic, looping/effects stomp box setup & nobody else playing. Nice to see you haven't let your myriad of illnesses keep you down. Seriously allergic to a Hamster? Dogs? So sorry.
Besides actually liking the 1+ cell's you shouted out on a Q&A, I mentioned them hoping you'd add them to your list & hopefully get a "spiff" as an Amazon affiliate. My longest 12 year+ subscription to anything, although since 2022, it's been dodgy buying big ticket tech due to 3rd Party Sellers. Never returned anything in 10 years, then I got an obviously used Galaxy S & a previously exchanged AMD top end laptop. Had to return both. Unfortunately I can't buy Google Play w/all that credit. 😢😱
I'm not into CSR, did check out your channel briefly. Maybe I'll try it again, but IMO there's obv a PayWall @ certain cars/levels & drag strip type games are just reaction time, luck & which car/mods you have. Used to love GT3 mobile though as racing games go. I've played MLB/9 innings for 10 years @ that has cost me maybe $2 in 10 years & they have made the game better every upgrade & finally got rid of the artificial max 95 team ranking in the last year. Fun game if you like baseball.
Watched & liked your adjustable height desk vid on this channel & the EQ/voice effects video. I learned very early to keep the Sound board EQ pots flat doing anything spoken word, not music, especially live, pre-all digital filters/Auto tune. Was very surprised you use any EQ on your voice or add treble in the mix.
Sorry. This is a long response to 3-4 of your vids. All informative vids btw. Hope you grow this channel but obv WR's is the main one. 👍 I'm still trying to avoid Champions league for now. I didn't realize that you're a Level 43? I thought level's stopped @ 30? No matter how good/long you'd played. Had a 🫐 teammate last week that was in Champions that wasted 1/2 the battle shooting me & trying to push me w/a Shen Lou. Weird. 2x that's happened. After, I looked @ his Stats & bots. All MK3 across 3 different hangers w/maxed Titans. Surprising was his 47k+ battles won w/a 38% win avg. I've played maybe 1k battles now w/a 52-56% win ratio only playing Domination mode. I know you can get crazy 80%+ in different modes as top 3 is considered a win.
Stay Cool & healthy during this heat dome.
Hey hey,, The main reason to EQ a voice is sometimes your room or your microphone just picks up specific bad frequencies or if there's not enough high-end on the recording let's just say you have a darker voice or microphone your voice can be a little hard to understand when you get some background music or game sounds going or anything like that, you definitely want to cut any frequencies that are higher pitched or deeper than the human voice that way you don't have any room rumbles or high pitch squeals that you may or may not notice that somebody else might, I mean generally if your EQing a speaking voice you shouldn't have to do much just a few little tweaks here and there. as far as inexpensive microphones, that used to be a mistake to go out and spend 30 bucks or 50 bucks on the microphone but these inexpensive microphones just keep getting better and better fifine seems to be dominating the inexpensive microphone market right now and for a good reason. It's good to have nice microphones but for somebody who's just starting out you can definitely get something that'll make you sound nice for very little money if you know which brands actually make the good inexpensive stuff
But pretty much everybody will put EQ on their voice if they know how to work with audio but generally you just want to do a little bit You're not trying to do anything drastic if you have to do anything to drastic then you probably need to work on your room acoustics or microphone placement or something or.
