Very cool of you to reply to viewers even after this much time has passed!!

@sparkestudio Год назад

Thank you, I want to help others. The lack of time working a lot makes it very hard to do and investigate things. Expect more help videos and more trips and tricks coming soon. One video I finished last night but thumbnails can be difficult and is holding back the release... Any TRS 3.5mm microphone to android mobile... Also works to PC without an audio interface. Next video planned Zoom F3 hot tip 3 video. Next after Sennheiser MKH50. Saramonic didn't send me the blinkME they said they were sending it seems.

Hi! I'm a bass baritone, so I have a decent deep voice. I enjoy voiceover and singing. What microphone do you recommend for my tone? I don't want my voice to sound muffled, so perhaps something that boosts the bass even more isn't my first choice.

@sparkestudio 2 месяца назад

Audio technica AT4040 has better low and high response compared to the AT2035. for low cost the Presonus PX1 is impressive. I reviewed those other mic's BUT the Presonus was one of my first videos on this channel. I used it mainly for cartoon characters and advertising voices.

@sparkestudio 2 месяца назад

The Lewitt 540 sub zero is a beautiful mic that has a natural tone with extremely low self noise but isn't cheap. I have a video comparing the AT4040 and the AT2035 on this channel as well. The differences are very small but are important for pure accuracy but double the cost difference is questionable.

@KillahKuin 2 месяца назад

@@sparkestudio Thanks! I live in Argentina, so low cost options are a must. I'll check those vids.

Hi nice video. Which application you are using for editing Audio

@sparketech 2 года назад

2:06 is where I list the recording software. My video editor is Davinci Resolve 18 Studio and other than boosting volume I didn't modify or change the audio at all.

Hi, I like the value with the PM500. How can I eliminate the noise when trying to be silent? With an audio mixer setting? Let me know if you have a video for some specifics on that? Thanks!

@sparkestudio Год назад

Hiss can be reduced with a good loud audio interface or it can be edited out ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vtg2Ti8qeuA.html

@sparkestudio Год назад

If your gain levels are too high on your audio mixer it'll cause hiss as well.

@sangeetshaala 2 года назад

should i buy At 2035 for Singing purposes. I don't have a treated room? hope you will reply ASAP.

@sparketech 2 года назад

Yes because AT2035 because the lower noise floor. If you want the best microphone without paying huge the AT4040 i also reviewed is better, has better pitch noise response for lows and highs. The PM500 is going to make you sound a bit better depending on the pitch of your voice if you are looking for a little more push in the low tones but again with more sound in the silence... The hiss in the silence can be removed. Refer to my *hot tips* video playlist for that information.

@sparketech 2 года назад

The Sennheiser MKE600 is a great choice for an untreated rooms but at 3 to 4 times the cost. I have 2 videos for that mic one with singing and playing guitar refer to my video description of that review to find my other video on my other channel. PS. To reduce echo for cheap get some moving blankets and put them on the wall towards the wall you are singing or place some furniture on that wall.

@poker4501 4 месяца назад

I've no idea what You meant by "depending on what tones you prefer" is there a mic that doesn't changes tone alot? How do i know what tone is suitbel for me?

@sparkestudio 4 месяца назад

This mic adds a deeper tone to your voice. Do you want a deeper tone or is that bad for your voice? Some mics are more natural but I prefer the bold tone because my voice isn't at all deep

@poker4501 4 месяца назад

@@sparkestudio do you have a way to check if the mic push a deeper tone?, or do you have any mic recommendation that doesn't changes the the tone of your voice?

@sparkestudio 4 месяца назад

@@poker4501 Even the famous SM7B pushes a deeper tone, that so called God tone people love that this mic also has. If you want nature try Lewitt lct 440 which has insanely low self noise, or Se Electronics VR1 but it has somewhat high self noise but a very natural sound that is especially beautiful sounding for recording instruments. The biggest question is what are you using the microphone for? Do you want to be close to the mic or at least have it out of the scene like I do in nearly all my videos when doing reviews of studio and camera gear on this channel. If you want a Mic to use out of the scene the next question is are you using it inside or outside? Is it a treated room with sound dampening or not. For natural tone and all of my movie recording like the Batman movie I made I use the Rode NTG 5 which I review on this channel. I have piles of microphone compare videos and use case videos. Here's a good round up video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tPTFXsw4P9k.html and here is the NTG 5 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-r6zdruyMc5M.html Problem is that it is impossible for me to know the sound you want but if you want to sound completely natural there are piles of options. Most condenser mics pick up everything and are HORRIBLE in untreated rooms where any form of sound bounce happens. Dynamic mics are less sensitive but are generally good for an room that may have sound bouncing of hard flat walls like the MV7 and SM7B but they are not natural tone.

@sparkestudio 4 месяца назад

@@poker4501 If you want a good mic for the price with most natural sound and quality fort the price AT2035 is the more natural sounding of the 2. The AT4040 has a wider sound stage nearly identical sound to the AT2035 at double the price. If you are intending to do pro level audio / singing for the price paid. My MKH 50 video with the comparison of the other mics should have given a great idea for sound. The SE Electronics SE8 I really liked but it needs to be fairly close at 1 foot away at furthest to as close as 6" away for best results. I purchased it for use in a room with hard walls where sound bouncing can happen.

@dreiespejo157 Год назад

what will you choose for doing song covers AT2020 or this maono PM500?

@sparkestudio Год назад

I have never used the AT2020, but I did notice that the AT2035 has a bit of a compressed sound stage on the high end and low end. I'd figure that the AT2020 would be pushing the compressed sound further. I'd choose the PM500, just keep one thing in mind. The PM500 requires more gain than the Audio Technica mics, you'd want a good audio interface used with it.

@sparkestudio Год назад

Watch my other video for a short clip of me testing singing with the PM500 at the end ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pFHArUY8Z-4.html

Hi why AKG is suitable for Singing

@sparkestudio 2 года назад

The mics can be for low cost I'd recommend the Audio-Technica AT2020 for better audio. The cheap AKG P120 can work still but we are getting into less profections in pure sound but when not going for studio recording quality they could be good enough for people on a budget. The Audio-Techinca AT2035 is impressive for the price at a higher price.

pm500 or behringer b2 or something else? I'm man, my voice is low. I need mic for rap

@sparketech Год назад

Recommended mics are also a price thing... The cheapest mic option could be the PreSonus PX1. For great sound that is accurate and you'll need a pop filter for it is the mic I personally use for all my videos the Audio-technica AT4040. If you look at my playlist I have mic vs mic tests and "professional" mics that I tested to give you more ideas. The AT4040 is my #1 choice but not cheap.

@@itame1686 the PreSonus is super cheap. Mentioned it is looking for low cost, the PM500 is low cost. That is why I suggested the AT4040 for quality but at a higher price. I reviewed a lot of mics, wrote on my way to work, no time to check what mics I have tried and am at work for another 7 hours :P. I hoped Lewitt would send a mic to review, I am too small of a channel that they declined my request.

Like Mao-Zedong you pronounce it Mao-no not Ma-uno, I think 😅😅

@sparkestudio 11 месяцев назад

I don't know. I heard the name spoken 2 different ways and the way you wrote it would sound different than anyone else I heard. However the way you wrote sounds pronounced as a Chinese name would be spoken. In Canada and USA spoken that way would have everyone puzzled. Often names I spoke differently here and are given a nickname. I work with several people from China, at the LNG Canada Project.
