    Best review I've seen so far about these budget nic & sound card..
    I purchased the V8 sound card and I'm really disappointed with it 🤷🏾, and the bm800? I don't want to talk about it 🤦🏿
    I'm going for the maono mic and phantom power.. just for the main time

      XLR condenser microphones like this one are meant to be used with phantom power to get their best potential. It will not damage them in any way. If you have a super weak voice then I suggest you look for a good quality phantom power that offers clean gain like the Focusrite scarlet

      USB mics are fine. Sometimes they are even better than budget XLR mics like these even with phantom power. The advantage of XLR mics is that they are scalable and can be used on audio interfaces as opposed to USB mics that do not. Maybe when I get some funds we'll be able to review more of these. There are a lot of great USB mics like that and the Razer Siren, Maono(USB), Reddragon and HyperX.

      yeah you will likely need phantom power. If you don't use phantom power, your mic will have to rely on your computer's onboard soundcard which is probably not giving it enough power. If you have the budget..get something with a pre-amp

    • @KonzTech
      @KonzTech  2 роки тому

      Different audio interfaces have different features..the most common ones like the V8 sound card offers a little bit of noise cancelling, some extra effects/sound effects that streamers often use. Some highend interfaces also have built in phantom power(so they have an XLR jack). If you're on a budget you can just go with this mic and see if it's ok. If you need more gain, then you can maybe purchase a phantom power.

    • @KonzTech
      @KonzTech  2 роки тому

      If you're into singing you can just make do with a decent mic like this and work on your room acoustics like applying some sound dampening on the walls. Phantom power just gives the mic a little bit of boost

    • @acousticgaurav
      @acousticgaurav 2 роки тому +1

      So the main purpose of audio interface is to cancel the white background noise not more that.... perhaps that white noise can also be removed by editing right
      ... Basically for singing maono au-a03 and a phantom power supply is enough yes?

    Hi, I just wanna ask if you could help me with my setup.
    I bought a Maono AU-AO3T but when I already plugged it in my laptop and try to record in bandlab/ audacity, there’s a delay or latency if that was it called. I don’t have any soundcard, audio interface or phantom power.
    Hope you can response, thank you!

    • @KonzTech
      @KonzTech  2 роки тому +1

      By any chance are you trying to monitor your own voice while recording? If yes, then there will definitely be a delay if you monitor it from your computer(the faster the computer, the lesser the delay). Zero latency monitoring can be achieved by monitoring directly from your mic or through your sound interface. Do note that some mics may not allow it so a dedicated sound interface would be your best setup. The same goes for recording voice with a music track..the music track must be directly fed to the sound interface along with the mic..you monitor the music from the interface as you record your voice.

      Last question, i’m also trying to record from my iphone, which needs a dongle connector. But still not working 🥲 i tried opening garageband but the mic wont work, I can only use the headset that was connected as well with the Y connector. Tried also recording at the video camera but it seems the mic was not connected as well. Should I make a refund for this mic? Or buy a new connector.
      This is really stressful and frustrating, i dont know what to do. 🥲

    • @KonzTech
      @KonzTech  2 роки тому +1

      @Camile Hernandez uhhhh it may be just an issue with compatibility or some settings in your iphone that must be tweaked. I use the Y connector on my android phone to record my keyboard typing videos with sound and it works alright..looks like you are really trying to record with music. Try to get a V8 soundcard since it's cheap and search up guides on youtube on how to record with it. I remember seeing a video before where one girl records through her phone. She uses 2 phones though..one phone feeds the music track to the V8 then output from the V8 goes to her recording phone. Alternatively, you can record the melody on your phone and listen to it on headphones while you record the vocals on your computer...then sync up the 2 tracks in audacity...this is what my cousin does.

      Haven't really tried the Maono AM200 so di ako mkakapagbigay ng feedback.
      Honestly maganda nmn ung Mic kahit direkta lng sa computer without phantom power as you have seen sa vid. I suggest if ever bibili k ng phantom power, grab the good ones like Focusrite Scarlet or Behringer. Kasi ung phantom power na gamit ko dito doesn't have clean gain so madaming white noise if maglalagay ako ng gain sa mic. I can't really vouch sa v8 kasi ang naging silbi lng tlaga nia sa setup ko is tinatanggal nia ung white noise at the expense of somehow reducing the mic's range so minsan nagcclip ung audio ko kpag mejo malayo nako sa mic or kpag may sudden loud noise sa background. Currently ang setup ko is mic+phantom power. Ang issue ko lng tlaga is ung white noise and ung mga sudden background noises(di kasi soundproofed ung room)...which is nalilinis naman via audacity pero un nga minsan panget ung linis kaya pansin ko iba iba labas ng boses ko per recording. Sa tingin ko a better phantom power with clean gain + some sound proofing would make my audio more consistent and malelessen ung time ko for audio cleanup :)

Otherwise wala akong alam n ibang way pra mapagsabay sabay mo ung mga inputs na un and mastream.
      Walang mxadong itutulong ung V8 sa ganung setup. Unless gusto mo magrecord sa phone and magamit ung mic. Pero gagamit k pdin ng mga adapters since walang Type C connector ung V8. I'd probably go with the Maono AM200 since it appears to be a better interface(I've seen the reviews earlier)

      Di naman gano..depende nlng kung sobrang ingay.. Malakas ang white noise sa BM-800. Dito meron pdin pero ang kinaiba nia is malakas ung reception nia and mas klaro boses ko. Condenser microphones are not designed for active noise cancellation kaya nid mo tlaga mag sound proof or use software to cancel background noise. If you're streaming, set k nlng ng noise gate or if you're recording then you can follow the steps I did in the later part of the vid to reduce noise. Ung V8 soundcard na gamit ko nakakatulong nmn sa pagcancel ng white noise at the expense of some clippings here and there. Mas ok tlaga may magandang audio interface para sa mga condenser microphones.
