Today I walkthrough, explain, test and review the Universal Audio Twin X Duo. This is a Thunderbolt 3 audio interface with ADAT/SPDIF expansion, two preamps with 65dB of gain, and DSP processing with near 0 latency. You get some great converters and you can record up to 24-bit 192kHz. This thing is an absolute beast if you are a Mac user.

Today I review the first dynamic mic from Mojave, the MA-D. This mic gives a very bright sound, but it handles that upper end very well. It also has a slightly pulled back midsection and a slight exageration in the bass and low mids which yields a V-shaped sound. As far as handheld dynamics go, it doesn't sound like any of the 17 other mics I compare it against.

Today I compare two large diaphragm dynamic mics, the Electro Voice RE-320 & the Rode Procaster to see which one is best. I was so torn between these mics, but I think either will be a GREAT option for your podcast or gaming videos. 00:00 - Intro 00:17 - Build Quality 00:43 - RE-320 Specs & Price 01:37 - Procaster Specs & Price 02:20 - Polar Pattern Test 02:35 - Background Noise Rejection Test 02:56 - Distance Test / Proximity Effect Test 03:19 - Music Test 04:03 - Winner / Explanation 05:03 - Outro Buy the Electro Voice RE-320 US: http://amzn.to/2hmCSup UK: N/A CA: N/A DE: http://amzn.to/2fEkFbE Buy the Rode Procaster US: http://amzn.to/2cu6xi8 UK: http://amzn.to/2c6mH2m CA: http://amzn.to/2gn9jbG DE: http://amzn.to/2iLFRjZ Buy the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (2nd Gen) US: http://amzn.to/2vDFbzK UK: http://amzn.to/2w8O2f6 CA: http://amzn.to/2wKGKfG DE: http://amzn.to/2hbtxsV My YouTube Kit: https://podcastage.com/studio My Favorite XLR Mics: https://podcastage.com/rev/favxlr My Favorite USB Mics: https://podcastage.com/rev/favusb NOTE (FULL DISCLOSURE): If you purchase an item using my amazon link, it provides me a small referral fee.
