Hello everyone! First of all excuse my english
With the help of some members here I purchased myself a new recording rig month or two ago, was using it since then it's a Rode Procaster hooked to a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, hanged on a Rode PSA-1 and PSM-1.
I have some questions for you regarding it:
-I am troubling to find the best recording technique that will pick me up the best and will isolate the background the most and that it will not block my screen and will not hurt the microphone caspule. tried putting it to the side of the mouth but it doesn't seemed the best, tried "hanging" it with capsule kinda down but it doesn't seems the best too, best technique that worked was infront of my mouth, but that hurts the caspule right?
-From time to time I can hear myself breath to the microphone (when the third technique I tried is applied), will something like a foam ball help? will I sound dull or something?
-Is it normal that I have to apply about 3/4 gain with this audio interface and microphone?
-I have a kinda cheap XLR cable, from amazon for about 10$, should I replace it?
That's pretty much it, sorry for making it so long.
Thanks, any help is much appreciated!
