Today we look at my youtube / podcast / streaming studio setup from microphone, to headphones to cameras to keyboard. Please keep in mind, this is complete overkill, and you DO NOT need this type of setup to make content. You can easily get by with a $50 webcam and $50 microphone.
In this video, I review the brand new Antlion Mod Mic 5.0, a microphone system that can turn any set of headphones into one of the best gaming headsets. I also discuss the differences between the Mod Mic 4.0 and the Mod Mic 5.0 (3:55)

Today we’re looking at a cheap budget dynamic microphone, the FiFine K8, or as they call it the "FiFine Dynamic Vocal Microphone Cardioid Handheld Microphone On/Off Switch Karaoke, Live Vocal, Speech etc.”. This microphone is rather boosted in the higher frequencies, leading it to sound sibilant, and it also suffers from plosives. However, it does have one of the best off axis rejections I’ve encountered on a mic. So if you’re in a noisy environment, this microphone may be a good option for you.

Today I walkthrough, explain, test and review the Volt 276 and discuss when you might want the Volt 2 over the Volt 276. I also compare vintage mode to the LA610 tube preamp and compare it to the Audient ID14 and SSL2+. This thing offers a 55dB gain range, an EIN of -127dBa, sufficiently powered headphone amp, direct monitoring, midi I/O, and that vintage mode & 76 style compressor

Today I compare two of the most popular voice over microphones on the market, the Neumann TLM103 and the Neumann U87 Ai. I let you hear how they sound for spoken word and a couple of instruments to help determine which of the mics will be right for you and which of these mics you should buy (if you're trying to decide between them obviously).

Today I review a Budget Dynamic Vocal Mic by Shure; the SV200. This mic provides decent audio quality, but the handling noise is fairly loud. I suppose I'd recommend it if you like the sound and are on a $40 budget.
