Why I Don't Think Mic Reviews Really Help You Make a Good Decision
I don't know... I used to love watching Mic reviews. But the more mics I try out for extended periods of time, the more I realize that short-term comparisons don't really give you enough of a litmus to accurately judge your preferences. I miss making videos about mics, so I'm just chatting, here. I think me doing mic reviews is actually doing people a disservice.

Testing out the Lewitt LCT 540 Subzero and giving you my thoughts about how it performs on voice over and music vocals. I am very impressed with this condenser microphone and have had fun using it off and on to see how it differs from my other mics.

How to Mix Vocals | Vocal Chain | My Amateur Take on Mixing Vocals!
zhlédnutí 314Před 2 lety
Here's how I mix vocals for music. I am self-taught and really have no clue if I'm putting forth any practices that would be considered LEGIT... But anyway, this is how my vocal effects chain works and the process I use when I sing. I'm sure this is low-hanging fruit for scrutiny, but oh well! God bless, and rock on! Best, Todd

Testing out the Audio-Technica AT2040. This is a fun little mic for a nice price! I test it out on a podcast type of mix, voice over, and in the music mix for singing vocals. The AT2040 On Amazon - amzn.to/3xsO6Cq I was surprised by how well this rejected room noise, and also how much gain is required from my preamps. However, being the type of mic it is, I wasn't surprised about how much gain ...

Unboxing the AKG K371 Professional Studio Headphones. I give my initial thoughts after briefly listening to the headphones to test them out. My first instinct is that I love these things! They've got much for full sound than my last pair, which were great. I'm a bigger fan of AKG now, even though I've already tried out some of their audio gear and microphones and stuff.

Hakan P110 VS Stedman Proscreen 101 Pop Filter Comparison
zhlédnutí 3,5KPřed 3 lety
In this video, I do a comparison of the Hakan P110 and the Stedman Proscreen 101. Which is the better pop filter? I think it's the Hakan, but they're both good pop filters; just different price points. It's super important to have a quality pop filter to avoid plosives while recording. Whether that's for singing vocals, voice over, or even podcasting. I could have had a better mic technique in ...

dope video🔥 540 or 103? I have a 440 and 840 and a 103 myself but looking to get a 540 or 640
Thanks! I love Neumann. Of course, it costs more. But after long-term use of both mics, it's definitely the 103 for me.
@@MintGreenAudio thanks I appreciate that ima use mines lol
Powerful 💪
Bro start making music videos again
YO! Thanks, man. I've been thinking about getting back to it!
Best review ever
Thanks!!!
OMG, it sounds stunningly detailed and precise. With this price range, there are other great ones, too. I am talking about a microphone for singing vocals. But I like this microphone. You're good singer😎.
Yeah, it's so clear! Thank you for the kind words! :)
Scarlett do the job well but M2 let perceive slightly more the transients and harmonics, I don't know if it does a big difference in the master, hope it does cause I´ve just purchased one recently 👋
Dude you rock. Do you have a band or some music account I can hear? I love it lol
Hey, thanks, man! I appreciate the kind words. I wanna record an album. It's been on my To-do for about 20 years. I'll let ya know one of these days. :)
NPR Tiny Desk approves. I don't know if they ever use another mic . . .
True, I've always noticed that!
Tried painting mine gold. Awesome metallic gold paint turned to a dull golden brown after applying the clear coat. Have sanded back and painted again, going to try with a different clear sealer to try and maintain a better metallic Gold finish. Awesome video thanks
Hey, you bet! I think I got lucky the first time haha. Best of luck!
@@MintGreenAudio I tried a water based sealant and was a bit better but it wasn't metallic enough still so sanded it back and using a gold glitter finish on it, looks good so far.
Im a little late to the party. Pretty sure there is no difference in sound at all as they are the same exact microphone. The only difference is what you dont show or talk about is that the pro version has a headphone monitor port whereas the other does not.
Thanks for weighing in! I think there's a difference, but I guess you're the pro, here ;)
All reviews should be this condensed and under 1min 30. Hats off.
Thanks! And agreed...
Oops! You spelt Paining rong.....🤪
Haha! So rong
Can I get a black one? 😛
Ha! Great idea!
Thank you for getting right to it! Very helpful.
You bet!
I love this channel!
Thank you!
Wow what were you recording into:? It sounds nice and brite.
Yeah this mic is crisp! UA Apollo Solo :)
@@MintGreenAudio Ah cool. Yeah I think Free to Use Sounds was using a pair of these for ambiance. How does this compair to the Rode NT1?
So whos win ?? Is the hakan ???
I'd say so.
Your song was absolutely amazing and the LCT 540 is a little slice of heaven. First time listener, I'll be sure to check out your other vids too.
Hey, thanks so much for the kind words!
czcams.com/video/fAbLa2R9dtQ/video.htmlsi=NcKzO5N_uUD_jGgR May I share my experience with this microphone on your channel?
I want to paint my Samson microphone to white can I paint the boom stand?
Ahhh, I'm not sure! To be honest, I'm not a pro when it comes to this. Just an experimenter :)
A perfect video imo. Thank you take my like!
Much appreciated!
Lewitt 540 s vs Neumann tlm 102, or Rode nt1 5gen ??
I'd go with the 540 of those options!
@@MintGreenAudio thanks
wow, sounds really good!
THanks! Love this mic.
So did you keep this mic?? Im thinking of picking one up. I own the 440 and 441 what do you think.
I did! It’s the most sensitive mic I’ve ever used. Love it though!
maybe after the new year we could do a livestream. Lmk if you would.
I pretty much know nothing about livestreaming, but it would be awesome to learn!
@@MintGreenAudiowe can do a test first and it will be easy. I'll reach out to you soon.
if anyone is interested in this mic its on sale for $500 use til Dec. 31
What spray u use?
I forget... This was a while ago and it was from Home Depot.
should upload that song though, sound ppl would love this song
Thanks! Yeah, I love that instrumental. Unfortunately, it's stock music haha. But I've been thinking about arranging something similar :)
@@MintGreenAudio Definitely should. I purchased that mic btw.
hello can you please tell me which mic stand you have? thankyou. :)
You bet! amzn.to/46GxoRE
I like your voice better with the metal pop than with the foam. It sounds much clearer and more defined.
Awesome that you can tell the difference, thanks for the info!
Won't the paint come off a little every time it is put into the mic stand clip? I'm guessing you only hand-hold it?
Correct, it's not perfect. Would probably need to be done more than once under heavy use. I don't really use it, though.
I was blessed to see you on a Facebook ad last week lol
Haha, nice! Yeah, I do a ton of em and they're really starting to get out there!
@@MintGreenAudio it was pretty cool to see. One day I'd like to pick your brain about voice over.
Subbed. Good stuff. I want that mic also. :-P
Hey, thanks! Yeah; it’s a dream.
@@MintGreenAudio You have a great belting range in your voice. I lost mine due to thyroid cancer. My vocal chords are held together with staples now. So now I do bass range vocals.
hey, the best comparison I found on CZcams. Thanks for the fun :)
Hey, thanks!
I prefer the balanced sound of the VRX10 as compared to the pro. A lot more soothing and resistant whereas the pro is very sharp. Thank you for the brief review and showcase of both mics. I know which one I will be purchasing 🙌
Of course, thank you :)
Great content 💯
Much appreciated!
I just purchased this mic because of your review and it’s actually good for vocals.
Fantsatic! Yeah, I love it. Way cheaper than the SM7B and doesn't require nearly the gain. It's a win-win. Glad you're enjoying it!
Your idea about "mic stories" would be excellent. I personally enjoy hearing about how mics are used and why they are chosen. I gotta agree about the reviews, I've watched so many my ears are worn out! With the compression youtube applies to the sound it's also hard to trust what you're hearing. Good luck, you've got the right style for story telling.
Yeah! I might get back to posting some vids soon :)
My name is Sukhwinder Singh, I'm from India, I have written many poems, I want to record my poetry professionally . Can you Suggest me audio interface and microphone ? so that I don't have any problem after buying it. My budget is $350 .
Sorry... I don't check the comments too often lately as I haven't posted in a while. I hope you found something great!
Mean Vocals Hearty & the Mic was fire
Hey, Thanks so much!
I love the 416. In my ignorance I use it for singing as well. I had various large diaphragm mics and they can't handle my less than ideal recording setup with lots of background noises and generally me not taking adequate care of the mics. The 416 has never let me down, I've treated it like garbage at times, I don't need shock mounts, can get away without pop filters, I pull it out of the bag, often use it hand held and off I go. Gun and run. This video is proof again it's a great mic, for voice over as well as singing. And, did you know, it can do boom recordings too! LOL
I love it! Truly good for whatever you need it for!
This is awesome, man.
Hey, Thanks, man!
Thank you brother
I have also done the same thing, failed several times to achieve perfect results
we had a good idea :)
Hey brother the song was actually PRETTY GOOD 😅😅😅
Haha, thanks!
Thanks ill order it today the wa 87. Its it , thanks
Just to give you guys a feedback I did order it , and it's fantastic.
Love your singing energy 👊🏾
Hey, thank you!!!
I prefer the pro, the high frequencies are more crisp, and the gain is higher. Thanks for your time and effort, you answered my question and didn't waste my time doing it!
Great to hear!
