Austrian Audio MiCreator Review & Test
Video & HQ Audio: https://podcastage.com/rev/micreator
Today I review a new USB mic from Austrian Audio; the MiCreator. This is a USB mic that also expands to allow you to add an additional input (instrument, second mic capusle, or lav mic kit). The sound is fairly balanced with a controlled low end a slightly more midfocused sound due to no significant cuts, and then a relatively smooth upper frequency range.

LEWIT
lewitt-mtp-350-cm-mic-review-test-(w
Today I review a great handheld condenser microphone which is a great option for live use. The MTP 350 CM has a very controlled low-end due to a 200hz high pass filter, an articulate mid section and a airy and open top end. The handling noise rejection and background noise rejection is top notch, although the plosive rejection leaves a bit to be desired. I also include a comparison the the Shure SM58, Audio Technica AT2010, sE Electronics V7, Shure Beta 87a, Rode M2, Lewitt MTP 940 CM, and the Neumann KMS105.
