A Talks : Mics

Hello ladies and gentlemen I hope you all are doing very well. First of all you have my apologies for keeping a long gap between this episode and the previous episode, and I know I had promised you that a comparison episode between various condenser mics that i currently own will be posted as part of a follow up episode to the previous episode, but it did not come in time, well, its coming!

But in today's episode I talk about a new Pencil Condenser Microphone that I acquired and i decided to give you guys a nice overview of the microphone so that you may decide for yourself if that microphone is any good or can it be helpful to you for creating something that you desire even after being on a short budget.

So without any further ado, let's tune in!

Hello ladies and gentlemen, how have you been! i hope all of you are doing great and you are keeping healthy and well. In today's episode of A Talks Mics I talk about a new microphone which i received a few days back and i have been using it since and well, its been one hell of a ride, i had initially thought that that maybe this one was going to be another harsh sounding, overly bright, crisp kinda microphones that i would probably return, but i was, i have to say, very pleasantly surprised. The microphone does well in both sound and looks department, and is a great addition to anyone's condenser microphone collection. Today's episode has been kept completely unprocessed, so you have my apologies for the weird background noises from my weird background, well, i haven't included a post processing test and some comparisons with any other microphones yet because i feel its important to get a nice feel about a microphone first than rather getting lost in comparisons and specification competitions as can be found probably everywhere on the internet, but worry not, i have got you covered on that front too, in the next episode i wil be including a post processing test alongwith some comparisons of the 440 with some other condenser mics i currently own. I am purposely not revealing the name of the microphone just now because you must have atleast something to look forward to in the episode, shouldn't you? yeah? so why the wait, just jump in and get a good feel of this new addition!

On Today's Episode Of A Talks Mics, A Talks... Dynamic Mics... And How They Are Just So Useful In Certain Scenarios That They Are Like The Go To Recommendations For Most People Out There Looking To Either Stream Or Podcast Or Even Sing In Really Untreated Spaces With Obnoxious Reflections Around. I Talk About The Difference Between A Condenser And A Dynamic And What Makes Both Types So Special And So Different.

Do Tune In!

In a world full of legends, here is another one, i had been waiting for the arrival of this package since a month now and it finally arrived, and boy does it work! its just excellent, as a part of a regular exercise whenever i get a new microphone, i record some comparisons of that microphone with some others that i have and same was the case with this one, so then i had an idea, that why not share the comparisons with my wonderful audience, and here you are, this episode of A Talks: Mics, discusses the RE20 and showcases its comparison with some other affordable and not so affordable microphones which are available in the market, the intro and outro portions of the episode have been post processed but the comparison section has been kept completely unprocessed for the sake of genuine comparison except loudness normalisation. I do hope you guys will find this episode to be of some value and enjoy it, i have said it countless number of times, its not about the mic you have, its about the thougt that you want to put across, if thats something that will touch your audience, the mic is just a device that helps you record your voice, so just keep creating with whatever you have and don't think too much. Also, these are testing times, especially for people who are in India with the massive rise in the Covid Cases each day, please stay safe and take good care of yourselves.
