Today we look at the mic that Markiplier uses, the Shure KSM44a which offers a very unoffensive sound with killer specs to back it up. Only a 4dBa self noise, 150dB max SPL, and amazing off axis coloration.

I test out the SF-930, NW-700, BM-800, NW-1500, & the SM-58 to see if we can record them on your iphone. I don't recommend this as a permanent solution, but it may work as a temporary recording option. Link to adapter blow.

Today I review the Audio Technica AT4033a which is a somewhat unexciting microphone, but a nice sounding microphone. It's a more midforward sounding mic compared to other AT mics I've used and has a less dominant top end but it does suffer from sibilance and have a self noise of 17dBa.

Today I review the brand new M-Audio Uber Mic. This is a multi pattern usb microphone that is in direct competition with the Blue Yeti and Razer Seiren. This mic sounds like it has a high pass filter on it, which ultimately makes it sound a bit on the thin side.

Today I review a brand new mic from Samson, the Samson G-Track Pro. This is a multi-pattern, hi-resolution version of the original G-Track. You are getting a nice sounding mic and an instrument interface for a relatively cheap price. If you’re a musician on a budget, then this is a great option to start recording music.

Today I review an awesome $80 handheld dynamic microphone that rivals the Sennheiser E835. This mic has a more pleasing treble and air boost, and a high pass around $200 hz to tame a bit of the proximity effect. It does suffer from handling noise and plosive rejection, but for $80, it’s a stellar deal.

Today I review the Behringer B-1 Large Diaphragm Condenser. This thing is boosted 10dB in the higher frequencies while the mids and lows are relatively flat. This gives the microphone a somewhat thinner, more sibilant sound. I think it may work well for singing in a mix, but it may be over boosted for many other applications.
