Today I review the Beyerdynamic TG V50. This is a handheld dynamic microphone that has a significant presence and treble boost. This is a more tame version of the V70D with less sparkle in the high end, a cardioid polar pattern, and a bit worse performance in terms of plosives and handling noise.

Today I review the sE Electronics V7, a super cardioid handheld dynamic microphone. This thing has an extended high frequency to provide greater detail as well as cut focused around 6kHz to assist in avoiding issues with sibilance.

Today I review the AKG P220. This Is 1” condenser microphone that has a very flat mid section and a boosted high end. This leads the mic to sound a bit top heavy, brittle, sibilant, and breathy. The only application I really liked it for was on acoustic guitar because it adds a nice percussiveness to the tone.

Today I compare the legendary Shure SM57 against the new kid on the block the Beyerdynamic TG I51. The SM57 holds it's own in many aspects, but if you're looking for a less aggressive tone, the TG I51 may be the route to go.

Today we look at the Roswell Pro Audio Mini K47 Condenser Microphone. This mic comes in the same (or very similar) body to the Neewer NW700. It has a mid forward tone with a gentle boost peaking around 5kHz, and roll off above 16kHz which makes it very pleasing and non-fatiguing.

WARNING: I no longer recommend using a USB soundcard to connect a microphone to your computer. It has become too unreliable due to manufacturers altering the components used in their products as well as alterations to operating systems causing additional problems. The only method of connecting a microphone to your computer that I recommend is with a USB AUDIO INTERFACE that is designed specifically for that use case.

Today, I review the AKG P120; a relatively budget condenser mic that rivals the AT2020. This thing sounds great all around, but picks up quite a bit of background noise, but if you're not concerned with background noise, I would absolutely recommend this mic.

Today we’re looking at a great entry level “budget” interface, the Mackie Onyx Artist 1-2 USB Audio Interface. This thing records up to 24-bit 192kHz, and has a noise floor measuring around -100dB, but it does suffer some pretty bad roundtrip latency at the lower sample rates.
