Today I test a very cheap dynamic microphone from Samson that is under $20, the M10. This microphone has a very gritty top end, and rolls off above 12kHz. It. Is not the best sounding microphone, but it is tolerable, and when used with an audio interface, it performs better than a $15 microphone should.

Today we look at my youtube / podcast / streaming studio setup from microphone, to headphones to cameras to keyboard. Please keep in mind, this is complete overkill, and you DO NOT need this type of setup to make content. You can easily get by with a $50 webcam and $50 microphone.

Today I review a clone of the classic Neumann U87, the Warm Audio WA-87. I compare this mic to the U87 Ai, an sE4400a, and a JZ Mics Vintage 11. This mic has a very punchy mid section and over all smooth sound that sounds excellent on acoustics and vocals, especially if you’re going for a more vintage sound. I am extremely impressed with this microphone as a mic on it’s own, however, it yields a very different sound compared to the U87.

HQ Audio Of Review: https://podcastage.com/rev/ma200 Today I review a tube mic from MOJAVE, the MA-200. This is a cardioid only condenser mic and it has a sound that seems fitting for modern pop with a clear mid section and airy top end. It is very sensitive to low end rumble and it picks up a lot of the room you're recording in so you'll need to be aware of that.
