  Great review. I really appreciate it. I already have one that I want to start using for voice over work and it is definitely a hot mic that seems to pick up every little noise. Can you tell me if it is best to have the High Pass Filter on or off for voice over work and which position of the switch is on or off. Great musical skills too. Love the guitar playing. Thank you :)

  @unumludumАй бұрын

  Very hot mic. You definitely need some treatment in your recording space because of that output and the full capsule this microphone has. To answer your first question... it depends. If you like your voice to sound lower and more bloomy when you talk closer to the mic then keep the high pass filter off. This effect of making your voice more lower and deep sounding when you get close to the mic is called a proximity effect. If you want your voice to sound more natural sounding when you get up close to mic keep the high pass filter on. To answer your second question the high pass filter is off when the switch is to the right and switch to the left turns it on. Let me know if you have any other questions.

  Would i use focusrite solo or dbx 268s for livestreaming setup so i can add future devices like hughes & kettner tubemeister 18

• 
  @unumludumАй бұрын

  You would need a focusrite 2i2 with a DBX 286s. The reason is because you need one input for your mic you're speaking into and a second input for the mic that is used for your guitar amp. The DBX 286s works very well for voice but if you want to use it on a guitar amp you need to run it after the mic you are recording the amp with. Do not run it in a pedal chain. The reason is because those are unbalanced lines and the DBX 286s uses balance inputs and outputs. If you try to plug it into your amp directly it may break the 286s. Hope that helps.

  Sounds really thin in this video?

• 
  @unumludum3 ай бұрын

  You are probably right. The reason is because in my other videos when I use the sE Electronics DCM8 I do some post processing by adding some gain to get the volume up to around zero dB. I didn't do it with this video because I wanted to show what the microphone sounded like right out of the box. If I would have played with the gain on my preamp a little more I am sure I could have got it to sound like my other videos. I hope that helped.

  Fix for real-time monitoring on the AM6: 1. Plug the headphones to the 3.5mm jack 2. Click "playback" tab from the Sound Panel, Select "fifine Chat" or "fifine Game" as the default output device, you can monitor your voice mixed with the PC audio. You could also go to Page 13 of the Instruction.

  Excellent review, thanks! I see it on sale on Amazon for $163 so I'm going to pick it up, especially since it might be discontinued. The video was a pleasure to watch, a great change of pace from the typical tech review vids on KZread. Please continue to make them. Based on my bit of experience I think that improving your thumbnails could make a difference. You have a really cool studio setup and you are plenty photogenic so if you have everything in focus, not just the product, I think it'll help. You got some traction with this vid so learn from it and iterate. You also sound like a very good musician so let that shine too. Subscribed and looking forward to more.

  Being a dynamic mic, it is not made to pick up sound at any distance. It is the kind of mic singers use so that it doesn't pick up the noises on stage made by the band, and that's why they get right up on the mic. So when you use it you are expected to get right up on the mic, as opposed to a condenser mic. What it came with is a mounting bracket, not a shock mount. A shock mount has some type of soft insulation, sometimes flexible, in order to deaden the transfer of sound vibrations from the mic stand or arm to the microphone. I hope that clarifies some things for you.

• 
  @unumludum4 ай бұрын

  That is correct! Dynamic microphones are definitely designed way different than condensers. They're two different types of technology to record audio. Dynamic microphones use a magnetic field to generate electrical signal and condensers use a capacitor with two metal plate covers. Dynamic microphones usually are better to be talked into up close between 4 to 6 inches, but there are some people that do use them up to 6 feet in order to catch ambience as well as organic reverb in the room/recording space. I don't know why they wouldn't just use a condenser because they're a little more sensitive and better suited for that, but to each their own. Lastly, thanks for correcting me. That is correct it is a mounting bracket not a shock mount. I actually made that mistake because my sE Electronics DCM8 has a mounting bracket as well, but it also has an internal shock mount, so I always would just call it a shock mount. I did however explore more in-depth to see if the Tank 3 has an internal shock mount and I was not able to find any information on the internet which leaves me to believe it doesn't so it would just be a bracket. Thanks for the feedback!

  Feels like the video is delayed half a second or so.

• 
  @unumludum4 ай бұрын

  So I watched the video a few times and couldn't really notice any latency where the audio wasn't syncing with my video. Is there a particular part in the video where you see it not syncing. I was recorded in real time with OBS with no postprocessing, so unless the encoding was corrupted I don't know why it would be out of sync. The only other thing I can think of is if you are watching the video on Bluetooth headphones there is latency that happens sometimes which doesn't sync correctly with videos. Either way let me know your thoughts on the matter. Thanks!

  The SE electronics dcm-8 / dynacaster has a built-in three layer pop filter and a built-in shock mount. It also comes with a foam pop filter to go over it if you really need it. I do have an extender for it because of the way the XLR Port is on the microphone. I got the extender on Amazon for about $8. I hope that answers your questions.

  Oh not a problem. For the SE electrons V7 I used a sm58 shock mount, but it will work for any handheld microphone. The pop filter I used was one made for the Shure SM7b, but it is a really good small metal pop filter that works great with a small microphone. It is awesome for videos because it does not cover your whole face when you are on camera. Links to both are below.

  does your microphone have a bottom cap that unscrews? i've tried two of these microphones and one unscrewed at the bottom while the other did not, both sl models

  Yes, mine does have a cap that screws off. I can't speak to the older model baby blue bottle or the bluebird, but I do know that all the baby blue bottle SL's have an unscrewed cap. The reason for this is because it is supposed to be a professional studio microphone and it makes it easier for repairs as well as to be able to alter the microphone like switching out the capsule. Hope that helps.

  You have a good point about most people not really caring about the audio quality being a studio level recording. There are however quite a few select individuals that see the name U87 and think they're going to get a $3,000 quality microphone for $30. My hope is that they'll watch this video and get a better idea of what they're exactly purchasing.

People need to know not to expect miracles. :-D People also need to know that a $3,000 mic or a $30,000 mic will sound like garbage if used the wrong way. And no one mic will suite everyone's voice. The SM7B isn't a good fit for me because my voice is 90% muddy. A mic that "warms" my voice is terrible.

This H&K does the EVH sound better than anything else I have, by far. I'm using the Line 6 212 speakers (vintage 30 and Celestion G12H90) for the moment. I'll need to close mic each to hear if one is sounding better than other. I have an extra Vintage 30 still in the box and was considering building an oversized birch cab for it.

  Yes, it's a hybrid but sounds pretty good in my opinion. I have a Marshall JCM 2000 100 watt head that I used to play live with. If you put a tube screamer in front of the Hughes & Kettner you can get the same modern mid sound the Marshall JCM 2000 is known for. This is also somewhat the downside of the Hughes & Kettner. If you're not using an overdrive pedal I feel the distortion on the high-gain setting does sound a little heavy in the low frequencies and really cuts a lot of mids. I feel it would be a little hard to stick out in a mix if you are not using an overdrive pedal, but other than that it is my favorite amp.
