Today I review the Audio Technica AT2010, a condenser microphone designed to be used on stage for live performances. The mic does an insanely good job at rejecting handling noise, while offering a more neutral tone than a standard dynamic stage mic. However, the mic does awful at rejecting plosives, it does pick up a touch more background noise, and it has a somewhat high self noise of 23dB.

Today we’re looking at the Logitech Pro X Gaming Headset with Blue Vo!ce. This thing is far from a professional gaming headset. In my opinion the headphones sound is subpar, lacking any kind of life in the upper frequencies, and the low end lacking bass, and if you boost the bass in the software, it becomes loose and muddy. The microphone is a typical headset microphone which sounds terrible, but they add processing to try to fix it with the Blue Voice software.

Today I review the Blue Baby Bottle SL. This microphone is warm microphone with a neutral low end and a transparent high end, with a slightly warmer mid section. If you want a more classic sounding microphone without the overly bright high section, this is a GREAT mid to high end microphone for you.

NEW RANKING: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuLABU6tI7Q
WARNING: I no longer recommend using a USB soundcard to connect a microphone to your computer. It has become too unreliable due to manufacturers altering the components used in their products as well as alterations to operating systems causing additional problems. The only method of connecting a microphone to your computer that I recommend is with a USB AUDIO INTERFACE that is designed specifically for that use case.
Here's my Ranking of the Soundcards:

Today I review the new mic from Telefunken, and their only large diaphragm FET condenser mic, the TF-11. This mic offers a crisp top end, a neutral mid section, and a slight accentuated low-end. The self noise is ONLY 4dBa, and the mic exhibits outstanding off axis coloration making it great for use in reverberant rooms or when you need a clean recording.
