Been having some trouble the last couple of weeks with my microphone. I spent a few hours at the weekend trying to sort it out, playing with noise gates, compression, eq, all the settings I only have a vague understanding of.
No luck. I can have the same settings on my Yeti mic and my headset mic, but still have dropouts on my main Yeti.
As I am unable to be sure I can record any bench stuff with decent audio (apologies in advance for the occasional drop in the videos I’ve recorded while I had the problem!) I’ve bitten the bullet and ordered myself a replacement.
The world of microphones has changed a lot in the last 6 or 7 years since I bought this one, and I spent some time last night researching and watching some reviews.
I’ve gone for a good mid range usb mic, recommend by several YouTube channels that usually know what they are talking about. It should be delivered later today, and I plan on making an upgrade video about it tomorrow. I’ll release it to channel members and Patreons first, then a general release in a week or so.
So stick around to check it out!
