- This is the Temu U87 microphone. The actual brand which is a little more difficult to find is a Skerei Professional microphone. I would say this microphone is very nonprofessional in many aspects but is usable for somebody who's just getting started. After reviewing my videos of the recording, I could hear that my voice sounded very boxy on it as well as very lacking in the low end. The place where this microphone shines somewhat is in the high end which is very consistent with many condenser microphones.
My final overall thoughts and opinions on is if you are getting this microphone for free or between $3 to $15 why not try this. If you're spending $30 you might as well save up and go for a more affordable end usable option in the $100 price range. This microphone is not meant for untreated rooms. I could tell even in my well-treated room that I was still hearing some small reflections in the recording, so in a very untreated room this microphone may even be what I would consider unusable.
For all your audiophile I will put the specifications of this microphone that were listed in its directions. Again, thanks for watching the video and hope this helps.
I would like to note that I am not sure how accurate these specifications are that we're on the directions so possibly take it with a grain of salt.
Specification:
Polar Pattern: Uni-directional
Frequency Response: 20Hz-20KHz
Sensitivity: 34dB +/ 2dB(0dB=1V/Pa at 1kHz)
Output Impedance: 150 -/+ 30% (at 1kHz)
Load impedance: greater than 1000
Equivalent Noise Level: 16dBA
Max SPL: 130dB (at 1kHz less than 1% TH.D)
S/N Ratio: 78dB
Electrical Current: 3mA
As a producer.. That mic sounds really bad..it would be a rough mix
I'd guess it's got the same guts as typical NW700/BM800 type mics, with a little electret mic capsule rather than a true condenser capsule with high voltage power supply.
Those come with that same rubbish connecting cable.
You're probably right on that. I did some research and a lot of people are saying that is a medium-sized condenser capsule but looks weird because it has a lot of black plastic around it.
actually, for the diy person, these are great bodies.
compre el mismo. pero creo que hay otros con menos ruido de fondo, quisiera saber cual es.
I'd have thought it were phone box at first
Yeah it was much worse sounding after I watched my video after uploading it. They probably should have called it the Temu phone mic
The point of these mics is that for 1/1,000th the price, you can get a decent mic. Most people listening to a CZcams video are not audio engineers who would care about or even notice the mic quality.
You have a good point about most people not really caring about the audio quality being a studio level recording. There are however quite a few select individuals that see the name U87 and think they're going to get a $3,000 quality microphone for $30. My hope is that they'll watch this video and get a better idea of what they're exactly purchasing.
@@unumludum @unumludum And that's completely reasonable. People need to know not to expect miracles. :-D People also need to know that a $3,000 mic or a $30,000 mic will sound like garbage if used the wrong way. And no one mic will suite everyone's voice. The SM7B isn't a good fit for me because my voice is 90% muddy. A mic that "warms" my voice is terrible.
Ouch that mic is horrendeous in every way.
Worst condenser microphone ever. But looks like original legendary U87.
Looks good sound awful
