thank you for the guidance
Thanks this is so clear, I understand finally!! Very articulate
Very nice video thank you very much
Very good . Thank you
Excellent presentation
amazing thank you!
🤙 good stuff
What I"m interested in is why the King Bee in the explanation segments sounded better than the Shure SM7B connected to any of the other devices. O:
Ah well. Good demonstration covering the different interface types (six, including the two bananas). Would be curious to see how the Boss Gigcaster 5/8 compares to the more expensive Rodecaster. I'd also probably go Yamaha AG-series over MG-series for non-live events (I bought and returned an MG10XU due to chronically low USB output, and kept my Alesis Multimix 4).
Great video. One question, if I purchase the YAMAHA MG10XU as you recommended in a previous video, would I no longer require the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen USB Audio Interface?
Not sure this great video is for beginners lol. What EXACTLY do you recommend for narrating a self published book on Amazon? I'm old and do not understand all of this technology. Thank you in advance.
Really informative and helpful video, thank you so much. Regarding the inline interface with the condenser mic, you say you go into your settings and enable Phantom Power--what settings are these, where can I find them? Are they within OBS or the system settings, and what should I be looking for?
I have the same question @kettner
Can i use the tulip output on my mixer as well to connect it?
Can I use this audio interface just for my Logitech blue sona microphone and then use a seperate speaker such as my Logitech wireless headset?
I needed this video! Quick one, my audio interface just decided to give in, and I was using it to connect to my mixer for a podcast. What other option do I have to be able to record in the interim till I manage to buy another audio interface?

So I actually have the Sound Blaster X4 and is it okay for me to plug in with the Shure MV7 by using the XLR to audio jack cable?
Nice done ✅
Thanks 🔥

I HAVE THE BEHRINGER uphoria 404 will that usb go to the p.c. also
Can you provide some options that don't require drivers and software... essentially plug and play... for my personal setup I use Mac, this isn't an issue... However I would also like the ability to use with my work PC (Windows) but don't have admin rights to download software/drivers , but really want to upgrade my audio quality for my conference calls, and presentations.
Anything you connect to your PC will require a driver, unless you’re using a headset mic of some type… but XLR is not an option .
Thank you very much for this video.
Question, is this capable of connecting to a games console, PS4 or PS5?
Thank you in advance.
I think you’d need a hdmi audio extractor first.
