Thank you so much for explaining and giving some context with every explanation! You explain in that a way that helps one learn sound dynamics too!

So, so helpful, I'm so grateful that you do such detailed videos of so many common audio equipment combinations!

You are literally the best with demonstrating not only the features of the product, but by also giving links and instructions to help your viewers. Much appreciated

This was the most best review I’ve seen in a while, definitely will buy everything 😁

your videos are beyond helpful. thank you for explaining everything so well!

Bro I have same setup When u record u put gain 50-60% Or more Cuz if u turn down gain I can’t hear myself And I need put gain 60-70%

I finally figured out abt the gain dial today after 1.5 years of using this exact set up. I don't sound like shit now thanks :)

Thanks man! Got me setup and running.

i've had my AT2020 with a scarlett solo for the past 3 years now (the solo is very similar to the 2i2) and never really knew what to do with both and didn't really want to watch a full hour long video on setup, so thank you so much for this quick and easy to understand video!

@@MrVaDelux The mic has held up very very well for my voice-over purposes. Its landed me an audition with a huge studio. Although, when I posted this comment I hadn't realised that the Scarlett 2i2 was out of stock, so I went for the Presonus Audiobox USB 96. Its amps aren't as good as the focusrite from what I've heard, but it's gotten the job done. I recommend you buy a good cable as well. You do NOT want a noisy cable, trust me. Otherwise, I 100% recommend this combo for any of your voice-over needs.

Hi, nice video! Which usb type goes into the audio interface part cause I know for the mac its usb c

Excellent job! How does this interface works with Audio Techica Broadcast Stereo Headset BPHS1 (built in mic)?

What are TOP 3 high-end wired headsets with microphone do you recommend? This is going to be mainly for online teaching. I am currently using Logitech Pro G X. I am happy with it. But I am looking for something better. I could use a separate headphone and microphone and interface, with this option, what do you recommend?

Great video! I'm wondering if this or the Presonus goes better with the AT2020 (which I just bought). Research is key!

Which microphone do u suggest for an upgrade?..AT2020 vs CM25 MKIII (That comes with focusrite bundle)

How do you set it up so it can pick up voice and guitar from a distance so U don't see the mic in the frame?

i have this setup, and i don't had a good experience with this because for reasons that i don't know, i have less low frequencies on my recordings and sounds so dry, with no weight, disappointing.... but i'm still trying to make this work! maybe i need an accoustic treatment on my room, or maybe is better try on a studio

If the cables are extremely long (think 10+ meters) it's possible the signal loses some strength.

I see you are using lots of gain for the AT 2020. I have the same setup9AT 2020 +Scarlet 2i2 3rd gen), and I really have to crank it up to get any sound. I thought it was broken.

See im having serious issues. I have this exact set up but if i set it to the lowest i can go to get a green light i can hear people in their yard two entire houses away from me with the window closed. Why is this happening? the audio is absolutely terrible with 0 built in noise gate functions??

Hello, I just recently got this setup to record vocals for music. If I turn the gain up too loud, I can hear things from clear across my house and a ton of air noise. When I have it down low enough to silence all of that, the vocals sound "tinny" Any ideas? I'm new to this.

When i plug in this setup into my computer for some reason i only hear myself in the left ear is there a reason for that

I’m rocking a scarlet solo with a AT2020 and I have a quad cast s for comparison. The difference is actually very minor. In my opinion I don’t think it’s worth going xlr since condenser mics sound so similar and the price difference is quite hefty

I also have the Podmic as a comparison to hear how a dynamic mic sounds. It’s my favorite for sure but I don’t like having to be so close to my mic when I speak so I’m sticking to condenser mic in my case being the quad cast. I think it’s the best bang for buck along with me not needing an audio interface

do you speak through the top or the side? or both?

Great questions: I started recording voiceover tutorials with a Presonus AudioBox ( currentprice.io/audiobox ) and AKGC3000 ( currentprice.io/akg_c3000 ). If you scroll wayyyyyyyy back to the first videos I uploaded, this is the setup that I used. I use headphones more when I'm recording a group podcast, or if I'm less comfortable with the setup. If I'm using a setup that I've used a million times, I'll often skip the headphones because I'm more comfortable without something on my head. That being said, I've found the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro ( currentprice.io/beyer_dt_990 ) to be extremely comfortable and I've been wearing them more than I've worn any other headphone while recording.
