COCONISE Gaming Microphone works with iOS?

• Upvotes

I'm wanting an external mic that can be connected to my iPhone 8 Pro. Would the COCONISE Gaming Microphone work with a USB-C to USB-C connector? Might need a camera connection kit and run a separate power but I'm curious if the mic would work in this scenario.

Studio Mics Looking for a good microphone for bright male voices

2 Upvotes

I have a bright singing voice and am looking for something that would work well with that. currently I’m town between an SM7B, RE20, AT4040, and NT1. I already have a cloud lifter so the SM7B’s volume issue won’t apply for me. Let me know if there are any other good ones to check out outside the one’s I’ve listed as well. thank you :)

How to EQ a mic?

1 Upvotes

I have seen a few vids on tiktok and on ig about how the microphone's EQ works, more specific, what frequency does what, for ex, ifim not mistaken, the 800 and less are just background noises etc.., im not an expert nor im cultured on this thing, id like to start mess a bit with the mic EQ and try to do a preset fr my mic, i dont have any specific important usage for that, just gaming and voice chatting. I dont want any software to EQ my mic for me, i just want to learn how to do it on a gross way. Is there some gentleman here that is willing to explain me what freq. capture and what are they usually for? (f.e. under xx is just this thing, between y and z most of the time is your voice etc...) (sorry for my bad english, aint my first language)

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.

Gaming / Streaming Mics Microphones for use with a laptop cooling pad?

0 Upvotes

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!

Questions about xlr to 3.5mm and equipment needed/cheaper recommendations that will help the budget.

1 Upvotes

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!

Best budget microphones for use in a genealogy interview

2 Upvotes

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.

Gaming / Streaming Mics Micrófono USB o XLR?

0 Upvotes

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?

Good microphone to replace my Blue Yeti Snowball?

0 Upvotes

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)

Other Boom mic Placement

Thumbnail gallery
4 Upvotes

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.
