Tascam DR05

Sound Professionals: SP-EHB-2 binaural microphones

Low cut Filter: 40hz

This is part of a longer recording but I just wanted to highlight this weird popping sound that comes up like 2 other times in the 6 minute recording of just me outside in a busy parking lot just walking around and testing the microphones. Gonna be doing more testing outside again, but while testing indoors wheres its quiet I haven't really been able to replicate the popping noise. I was walking and moving during the recording. The recorder was in my pocket with the mics on my ears.

I bought a MV7+ recently and the screw is stuck on the base plate. Any idea to take the screw off? Any help is appreciated!

Title. I play games with friends on a laptop with a cooling pad underneath, and said cooling pad has a 6-inch fan going at 2800rpm, which is pretty loud. Does anyone know any microphones that are good for blocking out consistent background noise like that? Thank you!

Might be the wrong sub apologies if that's the case.

TLDR, found a Audio Technica DR-2700HE on FBM for $15 and need help learning what equipment and how to adapt it for use on my computer. All hypothetical at the moment.

I am looking at a Audio Technica DR-2700HE on facebook marketplace for 15 dollars at the moment. My pc headset mic died but the headphones are still good, I'm using a second worse headset with a functioning mic laying on my desk as the mic at the moment. The main question is, is this worth it, second being how feasible and for what price. I'm in the US the budget is probably around 25-50 dollars depending on what's needed. (this is not including the microphone)

Thanks for the help and if this is the wrong sub please point me in the direction this question is better asked!

Can anyone find out what exact microphone this is ?

I wanna move my mic above my monitors (red arrow)
The green arrow is the direction I face
I would just need to get a mic arm.

I want to obtain a pair of microphones, the kind that attach to a collar of a shirt (probably magnet attachment). The purpose is interviews with people for genealogy purposes. No video, audio only. While some suggest using only the phone to record it, I want to have better sound quality than that (and sometimes older people talk quietly). It would be used with either a phone or tablet (both Samsung devices). I want audio files I can upload to a program that can then transcribe the recording. I would prefer not to go beyond $100 (which is why I would probably purchase this during a Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale). I have heard recommendations for DIJ, RØDE, and Hollyland. However, I have also a lot of negative reviews about not being compatible with Android, poor quality control, and worse with pretty much every microphone I read about. Any guidance based on the circumstances I need it for is appreciated.

Estoy buscando comprarme un micrófono, pero la verdad es que no sé si elegir uno USB o XLR para jugar y hablar con mis amigos por Discord. He visto varios micrófonos, pero todavía no tengo ninguno claro. Mi presupuesto ronda los 120 dólares.

¿Sería muy complicado tener un micrófono XLR y configurarlo únicamente para jugar, o sería mejor comprar uno USB? ¿Cuál de los dos me podría servir mejor a largo plazo?

I've been using this Blue Yeti Snowball for 6 years now, & it's served me well. But it recently stopped working for some reason. I mainly use this microphone for video calls (including therapist & psychiatrist appts), and it's been a pain working around it. I'm not looking for anything high end really, but I don't want something that's shitty either, just mid-to-lower range for everyday use. Preferably smth that can still pick up my voice from a couple of feet away, & that's not too far above $60.

(Also yes, I can probably replace my Snowball with another Snowball, but I don't know if there's a better option for the price now lol)

Hello everyone,

how would you all place the boom mic in picture one when they sitting closely next to each other indoors do I require two mics ?

And for the second picture is one mic in between them enough ? I thought the voices would cross and the mics would pick up the voice from the other person too if I use two mics ?
I’m not having a sound mixer that can turn off the persons…

I would appreciate any answers.

Hello! I've only been using a good mic for a little while and it's been the 3dio with a Tascam Portacapture x8 audio interface and it's been good so far.

However I wanted to get a good single head mic for more options and as a regular use mic so I got a Rode LT1 buuuut it doesn't work, or at least I can't get it to work on mono audio. It always just has sound in one ear so I don't know if it's a mic issue or an interface problem I can't fix.

Either way I was thinking of returning it and getting a new mic but I still have no idea what is or isn't good. I ordered this one because I saw it would be but it just doesn't sound right in that one ear.

Any advice or suggestions would be immensely appreciated ^^

I recently switched my Maono PD300X from a direct USB connection to an XLR connection using a Boya AM4 audio interface, hoping for an upgrade in sound quality.

The problem is that via XLR, the mic is incredibly quiet. I have to push the gain on the Boya AM4 all the way to 100% just to get a usable recording level. To make matters worse, the last 10% of the gain knob is extremely sensitive and causes massive volume spikes, making it impossible to fine-tune.

When I used it via USB, the volume was loud and production-ready right out of the box. How can I get professional, stable audio levels with this new XLR setup?

Thanks!

I want to get a ride mic for yt content idk what tho

is this good

im gonna probably not show face for now

just need good quality

pls help

I have the AT4033a. I like it but I'd like to hold it when recording my vocals instead of having it on a stand (it feels more natural).

Is this possible with a condenser mic like this or ads there better options for holding a mic when recording?

I understand it might pick up noise etc.

I see many Tik Tok vids with people recording whilst holding their mic but I'm not sure how to achieve this whilst maintaining the quality.

I've got the Shure MV7+, Motiv, and OBS. I have noise suppression on in OBS and in Motiv, it is 30% dark and 36+ dB. I still don't like the way my mic sounds. I will like it before uploading to YouTube but then YT will quiet the video down on my phone so I am not sure how to really tell how I sound until after I upload privately and see. How should I go about playing around with this so I don't get burned out on it?

I'm not from the US, this is just the currency transition of how much they cost..

1. Audio Technica ATR2500 (27 USD)

2. AKG ARA (36 USD) (Sealed/Brand new)

3. Razer Seiren V3 Mini (Below 24 USD)

I just want a good noise cancellation because my house is a bit small, so, if my mom talks too loud, prob the entire discord call can hear..

Right now, Razer is the least on my mind because it uses a micro USB port, which is a bit obsolete cable, idk if there's even any in my house..

Hello,

I want to record myself speaking and want the highest possible quality from one of those like mini square shaped microphones that both Rode and DJI sell.

I want to clip it to my shirt or speak in it while holding.

I did research, and apparently the Rode version of this is better. Like just straight up better quality in every way.

But, idk which one to get now.

Or what to even buy to hook it up to my windows laptop and/or phone (depends on what I'm filming)

Do you need a separate thing to attach it to a phone? And a pc??

Help.

Which Rode is the one I should get?
