MAONO AU-PM461TR vs Razer Seiren Mini USB Condenser Microphone Review and Comparison

Ғылым және технология

This is a review and comparison of the MAONO AU-PM461TR vs the Razer Seiren Mini USB Condenser Microphone. These are both budget USB condenser microphones with different pickup patterns. The Maono microphone uses a cardioid pickup pattern while the Razer mic uses a super cardioid pickup pattern. Let me know which microphone you think sounds better!

    Hey man thanks a lot for making this vid! I was a bit worried that I'll have to flip between two different vids reviewing the mics and comparing the two but then I found yours. So thanks for making a highly specific but very convenient video! and also I ended up getting the maono mic since it felt like it was better overall. I'm not an audio guy I just wanted a mic upgrade and the maono one sounded better for me.

    Nice review man you showed the pickup when standing far away. Other reviewers dont show that. Reason is sometimes I am doing something away from the desk while on a call and I need to decide how both mics can pick up sound.

    i think the tapping on the desk should be a part of testing any mic. its so helpful. thanks man. for me i prefer the razer. bc its picking up less noise from tapping around desk and keyboard. its best for people in online classes. which is my use case.

    Hi, i have razer seiren mini which is i used to record my song cover but suddenly it has a static noise and i dont know why. Im using it on my iphone 6plus via lighting to usb. First i think its about the lighting to usb cause it say its for only IOS 13-15 but my iphone 6 plus is only IOS 12.5. Before there is no static noise even though the adapter support IOS 13, can you help me out what i have to do? Thank you

    The Maono sounds boxy to me, whereas the razor sounds flatter with a more balanced frequency response, which would require less work in post. I can't see the placement for the guitar segment but they don't sound like they are in the correct position. Also neither of these mics should be used with their included stands.

    I think Razer Seiren Mini sounds best when it's closer to your mouth. I watched some reviews and it didn't sound all that impressive on the desk. Maono is higher up than the Razer Mini so that probably gave it a more fuller and bassier sound. I'm still torn between them!
