Today we’re looking at a super cardioid dynamic vocal microphone, the Sennheiser E945. This thing has a very clear and detailed tone with flat mids and tamed low end if you’re using the mic at a distance.

Today I review the Universal Audio Arrow. This is a Thunderbolt 3 interface, that records 24-bit 192kHz, offers +65dB of gain, and offers DSP Processing! This had no issues driving an SM7b, and the plugins that came with it are top notch, and offer a lot of great tones. I think this is one of the best all in one boxes you can get to improve your recordings, or add some nice color to them in order to avoid a sterile sounding recording.

Today I re-review one of the cheapest microphones on amazon, the NW700. This is a $20-$25 XLR microphone, and I put it through the gauntlet to see if it’s still worth the $20 in 2021.

Is a budget tube preamp any good? In today's video I test, demo, and review the Art Tube MP. This preamp has a +60dB gain preamp with a quoted EIN of -129dBu, and +10dB boost on the output stage. The only other feature it offers is the ability to invert your phase.

Today I review a new USB mic from Logitech the Yeti GX. This is an USB supercardioid dynamic mic with RGB lighting. The software is pretty good but has a few faults, while the sound of the microphone is bested by every other microphone I compared it against; this sounds similar to the mic on a headset.
