    Microphone XLR Cables

    If you want to be sure to have good cables for cheap price, you can only make them by yourself: I use Neutrik connectors and Tasker C128 cable.

    Stereo understanding

    Audio from accordion is divided into low and mid/high frequencies: in a piano it has more sense, because it is like listening from the player or from the opposite side: sound is like moving from left to right as notes played (then the strings) are on the left or on the right of the keyboard. In...

    Stereo understanding

    It is different between recording and live: in recording situations, you have to pan pot for a good stereo image by speakers and by headphones; in live situations, you have to consider that many people will not stay at the center of the speakers, then people on a side will not hear sound from...

    Leveling Amplifier as Preamp

    You can't use line inputs instead of mic inputs, because they have low gain, they are noisy and they haven't phantom power (if you need it).

    Distortion between 100Hz & 300Hz occurring on some speakers with my tracks, why?

    Hi, Dude. There are too loud low frequencies, down to 15Hz! You have to look not only to the waveform in one cycle, but also the envelope! Listening by various systems is useful because you can know if your recording will sound good everywhere or, like in this case, someone will hear a not good...

    What microphone should I get?

    It's a commonplace that a cardioid condenser microphone should pick up every ambient noise. Instead, it happens because the most of condenser mics are made for studio recording, in a silent room, not specifically for close miking. If you use them very close to the mouth they don't pick up...

    Shure sm7b Question

    Leyst says: "I record videos, and do voice overs through Adobe Premiere Pro". It's a very simple job, then he can do some tests before final recording and he can't make big mistakes. At the same time, the work will be faster, because it will need less work in post production.

    Shure sm7b Question

    A mixer would be very useful for some reasons: 1. You can apply in real time the EQ to your voice, without having to apply the EQ by software later to each file you record. Hearing in real time your EQ'd voice is useful to adjust your voice (how you speak) getting a better final sound. 2. You...

    Shure sm7b Question

    That noise seems due to a cable shielding problem. I have the same question:

    Shure sm7b Question

    Use "Fill left" (left to L&R) or "Fill right" (right to L&R) :)

    Shure sm7b Question

    EIN<-127dBV (or dBu? But it's similar...) is a good low noise. If gain is not enough, you can add it later.

    SM58 Issue

    A dynamic mic has a low internal impedance, then it can work well even with a low-impedance input device such as 3kohm. Lower impedances (=resistances, because modern transformerless preamps have a pure resistive input impedance) will affect mostly low frequency response, because it will act as...

    Can't get clean sound with either Yeti or Audio Technica 2020

    A USB microphone would be a good choice only if you need a very portable set. If you need quality, the right choice is a standard microphone and an audio card or a little mixer with integrated USB converter.

    Microphone Ground Loop Problem

    For a cheap price, it would be better a Behringer or a Samson USB microphone.

    Microphone Ground Loop Problem

    For the headphones/mic socket, you can buy a headphones/mic splitter for computers.

    SM58 Issue

    The SM58 is a dynamic microphone, then it requires a high gain. They are firstly designed for singing, then working with high acoustic pressure levels and giving not so low electric signals. If you use a SM58 for low level sounds, you need a very silent preamp to avoid hissing.

    Phantompower and/or mixers for my condensator microphone

    First Neewer microphones was working with the low voltage power from a computer input, but they didn't work with a standard 48V Phantom power! Newer ones work with standard Phantom power, but they don't work when they are connected to some audio cards giving a too low voltage power.

    Can I damage condenser mic by phantom power supply connected over unbalanced XLR cabl

    Hi, Taylor Please consider: 1) Audio measurements are very, very critical. A phone speaker is really, really inadequate for a microphone frequency response test! 2) The "perfect microphone" cannot exist! Microphones response is tailored for a better sound in some applications; voices are very...
