Merry Christmas and Happy holidays, Bandrew!!! We appreciate everything you've done throughout the years, and thank you for making these videos fun. You could be reviewing types of pond scum and we'd still watch due to your demeanor and fun way of presenting things.
merry Christmas! you helped me choose a microphone (the podmic usb) and even tho i dont need anymore equipment now, i still watch almost every video you make 😂 keep it up man.
You recently reviewed the FIFINE USB/XLR Dynamic Microphone, which, based on your review, seemed very effective in noisy environments. It was on sale for less than $50, so I bought it, and it is. I love it. The only thing I dislike about it is the RGB ring. Thank you for reviewing it. For my needs, it is better than the Shure SM58 Pro XLR Dynamic Microphone, which you also reviewed (and I bought on sale for $89).
Whoa! Totally missed the Lewitt Ray but that is genuinely some neat features for a microphone. Immediately getting added to my wishlist for when I'm looking to blow more money on mics.
Hey dude. Happy holidays. Its been great watching your production value increase steadily over the years and so glad you've got a niche of UA-cam you've settled into so well! Keep it up. We'll see ya next year.
I have a Monte Allums modded Green Label MIJ Boss CE2-B, definitely one of my favourite things too, especially on synth. FWIW you dont need a re-amp box for most pedals - if they work with synths they will work with your interface line. Very few sound different. I have 2 pedal loops (1 stereo, 2 mono) on my ADAT expander, so i can send to them pre (via the DSP) or post in-box effects.
Yeah. The mute button is a -40db pad if I remember correctly. Still nice to have. And the mute by distance seems like a true mute which is interesting.
I'm love to see a proximity sensor that could be used to control a VST instead - even if it was only for one mic. Would allow not just editing after the fact it but using the automation for other things.
Over the last year I picked up something that you use quite a lot in your reviews: The Gator Frameworks quick release adapters. These are great for when I want to quickly swap between my Shure SM7b and my Neumann TLM 102, which was also another thing I got this year, for when I want to just chat and talk vs when I want to record my described video and voiceover work, and don't want the SM7b sound
I think the KM104 is up there with the Mojave 201 FET for the two mics that sound the best on your voice. The Mojave has a little more air to it but the Neumann has a smoothness about it that is probably safer for people with sibilance issues.
Grabbed an Elgato mic arm, the stiff, low Version you can only turn. Gave my PSA1 Rode to a friend after Rode sent me a replacement part for free(thank you Rode!), but after I‘d gotten the Elgato arm. Other than that it‘s all software. DxRevivePro(I‘m a dialogue editor&mixer), ProQ4, Arouser. Oh yeah, a friend and fellow engineer gifted me his unused Focusrite Red7 preamp/comp. Sure hope I put it to good use. It‘s a fine unit.
Happy Holidays, Season's Greetings, and Merry Christmas!! Thanks for all you do!! Btw, long before I cared about mics or knew anything about them, I did several years on a radio morning show as the "say stupid sh** guy." Anyway, I remember thinking the mics looked "weird." Turns out they were BCM 104s. You're welcome for the boring story...
I do think that the minifuse interfaces have 1073 preamps in the software bundle if that counts. I wonder how good software versions are compared to the real thing?
Opamp Muffs are amazing! I've got an original and the JHS modded EHX reissue. For 80s chorus I have an original Small Clone, bit noisy these days but nice
*Looks like for Bandrew (as american) its difficult to stay calm while speaking which is opposite for slavic people as we are emotional only if we force ourselfs😁*
Dude, I totally missed the X1A... Maybe that would be the one to get for a condenser... I am currently back in the seat with the SE electronics V7... I go back and forth between that and the electro voice RE20.. going into an SSL 2 . Maybe, it would be fun to try out new interfaces... I still think noisesist or cedar is pretty cool to have... Anyhow, a happy holiday to you brother, you make some dope content and hope 2025 brings you a lot of success as well! Cheers 🍫👨🦯😎
Danke! Dear Bandrew, Thank you very much for all your thorough, educating, and entertaining testing. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄🎤🎶

your musical interludes - got to love them!
"Yahooo😐"
😂😂Merry christmas!
Happy holidays Bandrew ~ today I learned re-amping was a thing. What a cool piece of gear!
merry Christmas! you helped me choose a microphone (the podmic usb) and even tho i dont need anymore equipment now, i still watch almost every video you make 😂 keep it up man.
Geary Christmas! (could not resist 🙈) And your German „zuletzt Nummer 1“ was quite alright 👍
Bandrew is fun and all, but this Festivedrew is so much more... eerie? haha, I love this so much

And a merry Twin Peaks to you as well
Merry Christmas, Bandrew. May your Christmas tree be surrounded by audio equipment.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS BANDREW! 🌲🌲👍👍🎤🎤

"Festivedrew's" intro mood makes the holiday spirit sound like an STD. xD
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Bandrew.
I’ve been watching since your MXL 770 review years ago. Keep it going, the industry needs you ❤️

I love this.. ‘My favourite Microphone’s’ !! Very interesting selection 👍

When you muted the Lewitt Ray @2:43 I could hear you say "Now I am muted". What caused this?
I don't own the mic but in all reviews i've seen it seems the mute is just a big volume decrease.
Still a nice mic tho
Yeah. The mute button is a -40db pad if I remember correctly. Still nice to have. And the mute by distance seems like a true mute which is interesting.
Holaaaaaa Neumann...
that chorus pedal is awesome
I'm love to see a proximity sensor that could be used to control a VST instead - even if it was only for one mic. Would allow not just editing after the fact it but using the automation for other things.
This was great, but I feel like we missed the end of year box throwing video again. but there's a week left to make one, so I'm optimistic.

i no speakers inst something you normally do but if you an review speakers and maybe even live mixers that would be great
speakers, monitors, I second this.

Broski !!! What about the TLM 107 tho???????????
I have only had the 107 for a week.
@@Podcastagelooking forward to the review !!!!!!!!
I do think that the minifuse interfaces have 1073 preamps in the software bundle if that counts. I wonder how good software versions are compared to the real thing?
I see you are using a TLM 107. Are you going to make a review on it sometime soon? I've got one and would very much like to hear your opinion.
Your holiday music is horrifying. Horrorbabble-level horrifying. I love it. :)
4:40 just fell off my chair laughing. 😂 ITS REALLY LOUD…PROBLEM SOLVED
German native here and what you tried to say there was barely intelligible :D Still a great video though :)
Hahaha! I tried. I listened to it about 20 times before trying to say it.
Opamp Muffs are amazing! I've got an original and the JHS modded EHX reissue. For 80s chorus I have an original Small Clone, bit noisy these days but nice
Neumann is moving things forward as well. The BCM104 is available in black 🤣
What’s that mic u used for voice towards the end?
From a Spanish, what a great job on the fkng pronunciation jeez i thought i was trippin listening to you in spanish hahhahahahah
merry christmas you fine sounding and musky people
Hey sir can you suggest a good mid budget pencil condenser for live tabla
DPA 4099 would be rad
How budget we talking? the sE Elctronics sE8 is an astonishing mic for around $225 at sweetwater atm (normally a touch under $300)
I second the se8 recommendation.
@@mycosys oh okay thank you
@@Podcastage okay thanks♥️
What you do is you take that chorus pedal and put it on a bass and make moody 80s gothy stuff.
That’s it. Starting an 80s goth band!!!
Sonnect- Soundbullet, Sonnect Soundwire, Sonible ml:mio , Fabfilter Q4 ,
What's the best bang-for-your-buck mic for male singing?

Funny as hell Good podcast. You look good with Aden and Curtis. Merry Christmas from north of the border.

"it fits the bill"
Podcastage becoming a guitar gear review channel, when?
You got micrófono wrong twice! Spanish has a stress mark to tell you where to put the stress.
I don't think he particularly cares. This is satire and fun
4:56 Mm microphone ice cream. Yummy
as a viewer since 2018, your choice of christmas music concerns me. please take care. maybe volunteer at a microphone kitchen for those in need.
Te perdono, lo dijiste bien xD
Eerie christmas
