Today I review a Blue Snowball killer, the Marantz Pro MPM1000U; a budget, condenser USB mic, that produce natural audio with an extremely quiet preamp/interface.

Today we discuss my favorite audio gear of 2021. I limit the selections to one winner and one runner up which made it very difficult, but I share my favorite microphone that I reviewed this year, my favorite audio interface I reviewed, and my favorite new production gear that I use in my studio. I would love to hear what your favorite gear of the year is. NOTE: The paid promotion tag was selected because I received the TLM49 from Sweetwater for review, the Ethos from Earthworks for review, the iD14 from Audient for review, and the 517E Grand Pacific on loan from Taylor for use in reviews. I was not paid by any of these companies and all opinions are my own based on my own experience.
