Nigga your voice is the problem not the microphone ☠️
Name of the small mic?
Tell me where did you bought the 1$ mic, and I am buying It right now
That feeling when a $1 microphone sounds better
nah you just want it to sound better cuz you cant afford a u87 LMAO

Are you making fun if someone who won't buy a 3000 dollar microphone when the 1 dollar one isn't much of a difference?
@@stevenstokes6306 I'm making fun because comparing a $1 microphone that was made in a sweatshop compared to a $3k item is an insult and comedy in itself
@@AGsosa insult to what? A corporation?
@@Emprah to all the components and labor used making the product.this dude literally said the $1 mic sounds better lmao stop acting dumb bruh but hey if you think it can compete that's all that matters right?😂😂😂😂🥱
You made that $1mic sound great.
Now thats a good heart ❤️
Dawg first of all autotune doesnt change the way a mic sounds once bit and second there is no autotune used in these videos the only thing hes done is eq it and use a compressor and some other basic stuff which doesnt always help the mic sound too much better than what it actually sounds like tho@@Cybersaurus5783

@@Cybersaurus5783 someone doesn't know what autotune is, I see
The fact is that even really budget gear for a home studio recording is 100x as good today as when we sat with our 4track taperecorders and layered 1 track at a time until you had over recorded it to pieces. Today It's all about knowing how to use a few good plugins and you can get really great results even you arent a pro in mixing and editing. And no matter who you are there arent an explicit facit list what makes a good mix
1 dollar mic with 10.000 dollars audio setup
That is not a 10 dollar setup
@@ooferdooferbruhi think they meant to say 10,000
@@ooferdooferbruh HAHAHHA
He used the 3000 $ mic too in the same setup buddy!
yea but its still a.... $1 dollar mic
the fact you can get that good of quality on the 1$ is actually crazy
ONLY with amazing equipment hes plugged that into it, think it like "processing and cleaning" the signal, bro has like 10k worth of equipment back there to make this mic sound good,
@@Romo2055fr we wanna hear raw audio
Yeah processing did probably everything here.
Tbh it’s more about recording technique and having a treated room
@@Romo2055I'm glad you pointed that out because I didn't even think about equipment he was using. I was too focused on the fact that it sounded too good to be true... him and mr crabs could've made a band together with the world's smallest violin.
Why the $1 microphone sound better than my $120 microphone 😭😂
Edit: I’ve gotten probably 30 responds I know he did something to the mic lol
😂😂 same here
try learn to mix your voice better
He’s a better mixer & in a soundtreated room
mix and master
EQ
Me listening on a $4 earphone🥲🙂
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
Get yourself a pair of 7hz zero for $20 bro! Much better
Doesn’t matter, you’ll still likely feel the difference
@@juelraj3901 bad build
.
With all that post processing it’s really not that apparent. This happens to just shows you that good mixing, eq and compression do wonders. REGARDLESS of what mic you are using! Tldr: learn how to mix. Happy holidays everyone.
exactly.
Ur delusional, no amount of mixing or mastering can do justice to cheap mics. You get ur money’s worth, that’s why expensive mics are in studios n $1 mics aren’t
U forget that The outputs (i.e headphones and studio monitors) help with this . And you actually need these to mix,eq, and compress properly. Sooo the mic doesn't matter but ur output and ur producing skills are the ones you need to keep.
You can have a terrible mic, but if you have terrible audio gear, it'll be difficult to achieve good sound regardless of mic quality
As an artist and having worked in engineering - any mic with the right EQ changes can sound great and almost indistinguishable.
Then why buy a $3000 mic? I'll buy the dollar mic and the $3000 gear.
@@Daniel_Antonio_Arellano782 There’s no reason to buy a $3000 mic other than for ego
@@Daniel_Antonio_Arellano782 I'll say you don't really need that expensive gear today to produce a hit .. of cause it helps, but the way music is overproduced and often compressed to death before it's getting streamed on mostly lossy formats. Using even 1 miliion $ equip is kinda utter pointless.
I kind of agree. Although I think having a good preamp and a microphone with low self-noise makes your life a whole lot easier
POV: *me rewatching until i notice a difference*
u still listening bru
the 2nd one has more clarity and is crispier
Bro you still listening?
Legend has it he's still listening.
The microphone Ed was using in the video wasn’t a $3,000 mic. It was a U67 which is an $8K mic.
Bro the $1 mic sounds 3000 times better than my mic
How tf is that 1$ mic better then the one on my school laptop
You should to these comparisons with RAW audio without effects and EQ, so we can hear the actual difference
Im honestly super curious about that too.
Bro sings in cursive 😂
Bro can you make the expensive mic tests at the end longer you have trapped me in endless loops
he have a full time and he chose to make it 1 second so much useless 🤣 and disgusting for real 🤢 no one gonna watch something annoying, regarding the content and his voice nice
maybe that was the goal)
@@sobzir_o **goes to history to willingly rewind instead**
Just download the video and listen to the comparison over and over without having to rewatch the entire thing
Why on Earth does the $1 mic sound soo good 😂
It’s all about the mixing
The mic Ed Sheeran is using in that video clip is a Neumann U67, not a U87. The u67 is $7800, and the u87 is $3500. They look almost identical, but they sound different.
Plot twist, the 1$ microphone hasn't been recorded
I like how that's not how the u87 sounds like at all but with tons of eq and reverb you managed to make it sound like a behringer c1
Just processing made 1 dollar microphone sound good.
Now, take the Behringer C1 and reverse the process
Lol
Almost not that much? But still really obvious. Thanks for this!
Yeah but the compression gets bad on social media
what youtube left over is eaten up by your crappy audio gear and you still hear a difference
shocked that 1 dollar mic sounds so good lol
i like when he showed the 3000$ microphone
Even after CZcams's compression the difference is massive. Texture, dynamic depth, tonality, grit. It's just so much more tonally rich compared to the cheap one.
the 87 is pretty much the best mic ever so yeah
Massive???
Nah man, the video creator eq'd the Neumann to sabotage its sound and improved the $1 mic through post processing to sound better
Yep I believe so, that fraud aint even respond to your comment 😅@darkozoric4184
Stop lying.
Maturity is when you realise mic don't make you better the vocal mixing does
Bruh if it this ain’t proof that microphone quality isn’t as important as we think I don’t know what is… this dude could literally plug his headphones into the microphone, sing into one of the ears, and still make that sound better than my $200 mic😂
It’s crazy that a sound-proof room and good post-processing makes that big a difference
POV : "Me listening with 1$ headphones"
Me : "XD JUST KIDDING"😂😂
In a previous video the 1 dollar microphone was a 4 Dollar mic. It looks that the price depends on the video needs 🤦🏽♂️
This makes me feel a lot better about bedroom producing - except for the fact that I struggle with mixing.
Wow. It’s amazing what some EQ, compression, saturation, de-essing, reverb and cutting the silence can do. Quite a frustrating video but interesting and shows it’s not all about the microphone. The Neumann is much better quality for sure we all know that but please remember it’s all in the mixing - which is what he should be talking about in the video. On a side note - The TLM102 or 103 is a fantastic microphone, much more affordable too. I would also recommend the Rode NT1A if you are looking for a vocal microphone. I hope this is useful, happy mixing and always use reference tracks to get the best results! ❤
Quite so! Indeed any quality mic (which most today are!) can be made to sound indistinguishable from another of the same family (SDC/LDC/ dynamic/ ribbon etc.) Also, on the RØDE, I’d go for the modern NT1 over the NT1-A - more neutral, less sibilance, even lower self noise. 😊
+1 for the TLM102. Check out Serrano 87 if you want 87 capsule
None of those you mentioned fix a bad recorded sound.
You're good at singing
Thank you so much!! 🙏🏻
@@EdwardSmithMusic yeah you're actually reallllyy really good at singing
Honestly the fact that a one dollar microphone exists is pretty amazing. That said the more expensive Mike does sound significantly better to me.
The mixing really made a $1 sound better than my $100 mic
Ain't no way the 1 dollar mic sounds that good
Ur videos are so high quality, here before ur famous :]
Thank you 🙏🏻
Real
It’s actually surprisingly decent. Better then my phone microphone 😭
The 3000 sounds nice too but ill stick to a 80 something dollar one for now lol
use a good earphone guys..... that $3000 sounds a lot more 3d and warm
Gostei mais do de 1 dólar 😂😂😂
Esse mais caro tem um agudinho a mais, o que não me agradou muito!
So my last job was working at McDonald's, but I got sacked aye, 'caus I ah stole all the cookin' oil, poured it all over the car park mate, turnin' it into a drift ring hey. People pullin' in for Maccas didn't even know they were participatin'. Man, never seen a Camry slide like that! Straight into the lamp pole mate, it was super mad.
Kevin De Bruyne.. Thanks for the review mate
The $1 mic sounds good! But the $3,000 mic ..another level.
ngl first time i watched i didnt notice a difference cuz my mind was just like bruh -_-
Then I decided to re-watch with my eyes close and omg...
everyone saying "i cant hear a difference" that is the easiest way to tell whos musically inclined and who isn't
Those transients is everything
The Fact That I never wanted to know bout this until the question was raised .......
his voice makes the $1 mic sound $30000
Its mixing.
Nah it's not his voice it's mixing
I literally hear no difference
@@CherryOnToppishno it isnt
Honestly, this just goes to show how much mixing, audio processing, and good programs/plugins can do for audio. It can make very bad microphones sound fairly decent.
tbf once the music is processed, they sound pretty similar.
If this is real the people who actually bought the 3k one must be really mad right now
The 3000 dollar mic is obviously better but he made the cheap sort of more gimmicky mic work really well
The trick is no matter what microphone you use,its about what you do with voice you recorded
that one dollar mic is the mic I use in all of my music and it actually sucks unless you're working properly with and a decent audio interface and and picks up noise af , although this mic has become close to my heart so even when I make it out I won't throw it away
you can check how the one dollars mic really sounds on my channel listen to any song I made .
well it sounds better when u have all this stuff done to it like the filters you put on it
the fact that its tiny and sounds basically the same whenn you compare it to $3000 but you can tell a huge difference
Well from what I can hear there's no differences at all
You have an amazing voice
I didn’t notice a whole lot change from the 1 dollar to the 3000 dollar mic
The 3000 dollar one has this weird like peak type thing
Not gonna lie the 3k one kinda sound just a little better coz why u can hear his voice a bit nicer and the speaking words sound is a lot more clear
Man the $3,000 mic just has more sound pickup ability
Bro you a beast with vocals and sound you have a ear 🔥
I don't believe that audio came from the $1 mic because you don't hold something that far and get something that dry but ok maybe
sitting for ages? then stand up and run, RUN!
The 3k one sounds really clear, but the 1$ one is pretty fuckin good for 1$, but then again he's prob running it through some mixing
Not a U87…. He’s using a u67. It’s a tube mic. They look similar but the price tag is NOT similar… u67 is about 8k for the reissue, and 20k or so for a vintage.
The 1 dollar microphone actually pretty good! Where did you get that
Best 👍 video of the week.
We need more.
I bought that $1 mic somewhere for like $4.99 a few years ago... it still sounds good. You can even plug headphones into the other port
It feels like you're watching in 60hz monitor vs 240hz monitor
I just noticed more compression on the second one, otherwise - the sound is the same)
That mix should come with a shock mount for that price..
goin down fr casually playing in the background
It's NOT the Plane, it's the Pilot !!
Am suprised that $1 mic sounded pretty good. I was expecting worst quality. Its not 3000$ mic quality but its pretty good
No matter which mic we use people will listening in
Don't matter which mic you are using.
You need to have good voice 😊
1 dollar mic nice but 3000 Mic takes audio to the next level
The $1 mic is sooo cute >>
1 dollar sounds good with a voice and a mix knowledge.
The $1 has low sound the $3000 has full sound
You can hear the high end boost on the 87 lol
I'm pretty sure the one that Ed Sheeran is using there is a U67 which is the vintage tube version and a lot more expensive and rarer then the U87Ai
Amazing! Goes to show how much a good enviroment and EQ can bring you. The only thing that lacks is overall bitrate quality and stereo
I liked the part where he tested the 3k microphone
Thanks for making me realize that the mic quality isn't much different. It's all about singing.
It doesn’t sound that different because of CZcamss audio streaming quality and you might not be listening with good headphones either
it actually makes me wanna buy the 1 dollar mic and it is cute too lol
It’s all about the recording process and mixing.
the better the singer, the better the microphone sounds - old peasant rule
There is a difference but not a 3000 dollar difference.
An interesting video, although I'm sure Mr. Smith did not mean to imply that the toy mic is the equivalent of a Neumann U-87AI. But it is interesting how, with enough processing, the toy mic was able to sound reasonably good. So why use the Neumann? Well, pattern control, shock mounting, low noise, low distortion, wide dynamic range, really wide frequency response, proper output connections, etc. Not to mention that the Neumann is a worldwide industry standard.
Where do you get the small microphone? HAHA Twas actually pretty good.
you don't need 3000$ to make music, just 1$ microphone and 5000$ pc is enough.
No more expensive one is more louder but ngl the cheaper one actually kinda sounds better
(I feel like you switched them tho 😂)
singer 70% mic 30%... is what I'm learning these days
Yeah you did make that 1$ make sound great no lies but that 3000$ one sounded so much better 😂❤
bloodstream is so good… i know that’s not the point of the video but i had to say it
The difference really doesn’t matter much when you’re listening through phone speakers 😂
