    Excellent review, thank you very much, the microphone that sounds the best in my opinion is the fifine k669d and it is very surprising because it is the cheapest and I very much agree with you on the Shure microphone there is no reason to pay so much for it except for posing

      Love this! I do love the natural sound of the K669D and how it sounds EQ’D out of box and ready to go. Mind you, these are all raw sounds!

    This video was helpful. I use the Wave 3 USB mic from Elgato & the one issue I have with it is the room noise pickup. I was thinking an XLR mic might help but if the Wave DX does the same, I may as well pass on it.

    • @DarkenedCyrus
      @DarkenedCyrus  5 місяців тому +2

      Its still best to realize the difference in microphones. The Wave 3 is a condenser microphone which is usually picks up more room sounds based upon how a condenser microphone works. The Wave DX is a dynamic microphone and treats sound differently through activating the capsule passilvely, rather than active like a condenser microphone does.
      My concern with the microphone was that it had more room sound than other similar microphones in the price range, but it is still less than a condenser microphone.
      That being said, it is all relative. If you keep your microphone far way from you, then inevitably you will have room sounds as you have to crank the volume to be heard. Get the microphone close, turn the gain down and you should improve this on any microphone.

    Hi! Great video, I'm watching some on your channel cause I'm look for a new mic... I actually have one,but I can't find a way to not hear myself back through my monitor (it would rec everything twice in my future video)... It's an xlr tascam, when I tried a usb mic from razer it worked fined without any feedback...Any idea how I could fix this without having to buy a new one?

      Thanks for the support! Thats an interesting issue and sounds more like a software issue rather than hardware. I’m intrigued to see if we can figure it out. Maybe make a support ticket in my discord and let’s see what we can do?

    Hey mate! As someone looking to get into content creation currently using a headset mic.. do you have any beginner recommendations for upgrading to a standalone mic please?

    • @DarkenedCyrus
      @DarkenedCyrus  6 місяців тому +1

      Best budget mic I’ve tested for around 50$ is the FIFINE AM8. For 20 dollars more, there comes a few more options, but that is a great mic to start. USB and XLR
