You can hear the entire room through the condenser mic, you want to minimize room sound when recording. Once you start compressing it will bring that out even more and cloud up the vocals
In close or distant micing they work sort of in the ballpark. However, in the second distance (I guess around 20 cm) the dynamic seemed to be marginally better at removing the room sound. But it could also be a matter of pointing the sound source towards the microphone more frequently with the dynamic than the condenser. My conclusion, though: it doesn't really matter to such extent it makes a noticeable difference to prefer either.
Good observations. We've found that many times people hear less of the "room" in a dynamic mic only because it has less high end (which makes the reverb less obvious). But when you compensate with EQ they perform the same.
@@LEWITT-audioyes! This is what I’ve been trying to explain to people! Gaaah. But unfortunately marketing has got the better of certain companies who claim that their microphones reject the ‘bad air’ This is more than a silly joke for audio professionals to laugh about. People read that crap and believe it to be true, and then when you tell them the truth it seems like you have a far out unpopular opinion. Wth man… so annoying..
The dynamic rejects reflexions better when closed to it and at a distance both grab the same amount of reflexions. At a distance they both performs equally with a slight difference in frequency response.
You should be able to tell thru a phone still, vocals are all midrange and thats what it transmitted thru phone speakers, you are just listening for the wrong things probably
at closest range to the mic, dynamic seems to be VERY slightly crispier, at distance, condenser clearer, not too much, but definitely a notable difference and inportant if you really need a microphone for something like music, podcasting, or other similar activities where crisp audio is extremely important.
The answer is not that simple as it seems. Generally, dynamic is better in untreated room but only if you speak close enough to it. At the distance you stay, dynamic sounds distant and the condenser you chose sounds better…
Actually, the closer you are to the mic, the less room sound your microphone will pick up, because the direct sound becomes dominant. But why do you even think dynamic mics are better in an untreated room?
It depends on the noise to signal ratio individual for each mic. Usually it is lower for dynamic mics but there are condensers with better noise profiles. Am I getting the prize?;)
In general, condenser microphones have a higher signal-to-noise ratio than dynamic microphones, meaning they have less noise in your desired signal. People tend to get very close to dynamic mics and stay further away from condenser mics, resulting in more direct-sounding dynamic microphone signals. However, if you have the same distance to the mic, the results should be very similar. This knowledge is your price. A price that can't even be weighed in gold.
Very strange way to compare sound especially since you have to cheat to your left to look at the camera and therefore are giving your voice mainly to the condenser.
That's definitely not an untreated room, maybe just for the echoe thing but other than that, andof course condenser mic are usually more detailed but also pick lot of noise vs dynamic mics
