mod mic is superior

I do but only because I bought it when doing phone sex stuff and can't be bothered getting anything else.

What's a decent desk mic to pick up?

>not using basic headset for gaming

unless you're some massive audiophile who obsesses over muh mids and muh frequencies, any headset should do. i'm still using a pair of hyperx meme's i bought 3 years ago on black friday for around 50 pounds (like $60 or something) and the big cans on it provide clear and crisp sound quality for gaming. the mic is top notch too, though i know of people who have received models with a shit mic.

If you're only going USB quality pretty much maxxes out in the range that the snowball sits in, the usb yeti is retarded as fuck. You shouldn't be spending any more than like $40 for a usb table mic. That said, my snowball hasn't given me any issues.

>>384428074

You can literally just buy a 8 dollar mic. Nobody gives a shit unless your house is loud as fuck.

>>384438625
>unless your house is loud as fuck.
even then you can just download any noisegate program off the internet and set the dB levels so it only activates when you speak. you can already do that in discord but it's easy to do it through other software too if you use other voice chat programs.

>>384438625
If anything, buying a cheap microphone is probably the best option if your house is loud, because these things don't pick up anything unless they're 2 inches away from your mouth.

It becomes second nature friend. Using push to talk is only annoying for the first day. Past that I don't even realize I'm pressing it down to talk. Hell, it's such an automatic response that if I'm using a keyboard and talking at the same time I'll naturally press it down.

I get what these videos are saying about how the blue yeti isn't much better than a blue snowball so if you're paying full price, the yeti isn't as worth it but the thing is, the yeti goes on sale so fucking often that the extra features are worth it over a snowball. Not to mention, the yeti construction quality is decidedly better than the snowball. I've had 2 snowballs break on me within a few months while my yeti is still kicking after 2 years. Took the snowballs apart to see if I could fix them and the construction is pretty fucking cheap.

As far as the rest of the video, no fucking shit, a $100 standalone mic is going to sound worse than a $500+ full audio setup. The thing is, most folks just starting out can't just drop that kinda cash on something that might not pan out. For musicians, yeah, that's a different story because the actual recorded sound is much more important, but for folks trying to do podcasts and such, the quality of your actual content is what's most important to starting off and growing a listener base. As long as you sound ok, nobody will care if your content is good. Better sound quality doesn't mean shit if your content is shit to begin with so there's no reason to start straight off with a $500+ full setup like these videos recommend.

>>384438339
They probably muted you

>>384441453
same, the sound is pretty good and when you use audacity to eliminate background noise it sounds even better

>>384442110
>how do I know if it's shit
Easy. Record yourself talking, and then listen back to it. Also do a loud test as well, to make sure you don't sound horrible if you yell.

>>384429425
This. I bought a yeti because I had enough money budgeted that I didn't spend and now my mic quality is limited by the voip codec instead of my hardware.

>Why two different microphones?

My MXL is for my communication in games and used for streaming. The 2020 is in my vocal booth for when I do voice work.

Honestly if you're JUST using a mic for game communication, just get a USB mic. Condenser is for more serious applications and work, in addition you need an audio interface, or some device that will power that microphones and then get fed through your computer

>>384428642
Used one of these for around a year, and can confirm that it's shit.
I cannot recommend one.
You'd be better off buying a cheapo desk mic probably.

iam a razer pleb and wnat to upgrade to this and a mod mic.

>>384440932
You make $3.6k a month from streaming donations? This doesn't even include subs or ad revenue?

I'm jealous.

>>384428074
I got one pretty cheap during a sale and use it. I know it's not the greatest mic, but I've had several people compliment me on my mic quality.
For the future when I decide to upgrade, what's a good mic to look for? Ideally one that could perform well with audio recordings as well.

I'm not even a twitch partner or twitch affiliate either but I'm sure if I was able to get subs, bits, and ads it'd be more. People on my stream are waiting for me to be an affiliate so they can shower me in bits. Also again, I don't only do streaming, I do professional voice work as well so this is side money

>>384434151
Fucking meine neger. I bought that shit like 10 years ago and still going strong. I cant believe I actually bumped into someone with the same mic in the midst of these snowball/yeti circlejerkers

>>384446543
Do it, Audio Technica make great headphones. Those are very much flat response head phones designed to replicate the original source with no adjustment. A lot of people like things which sound 'basey' but it will just be the cans fucking with the sound. Razer stuff is pretty piss weak as far as audio goes.

Okay. So I'm gonna go blog mode for a second and just say that a big part of that is because I used to be raided and hosted a lot by DizzeyKitten and be a part of other big streamers streams including hers. So a lot of those people stayed and it was history from there. I lost touch with those people because I didn't wanna be "that voice guy who's on other peoples streams" so I branched out to my own channel

Also, just so you don't think I'm full of shit, here's a sample of some of my recent professional voice work https://a.pomf.cat/hizwjn.mp4 (it's lower quality because I was given a sample and a full copy but the full one is a huge file size so I can only upload the sample)

>>384447063
Open backed headphones are better for a surround sound effect, although the ones you posted would be fine. Open backed let some air into the headphones which makes for a more natural sound and adds some depth, the also leak more sound meaning other people can hear them even when you're wearing them. I personally like closed back headphones because I like to not have other sounds allowed in.

>Any advice for someone who wants to get into voice work?
Well, since you're already going to school for broadcasting, I'd say you're on a good track. In terms of putting yourself out there? Reddit and the associating subreddits for voice work it'll get you pocket change and give you exposure and work to put on your portfolio. Do your research on your audio equipment, each microphone and every voice is different. So find the equipment best suited for you.

You have to remember, VA is a very competitive scene. Never be bummed out you didn't get something. You'll at least get some stuff and have it be put on a portfolio. Patience and time with everything and you'll be on your way. I myself have been doing it for 5 years and I keep growing

I use a cheap Logitech headset for multiplayer gaming
But for single-player when I want the audio to be good and to hear some actual bass I use some other Chinese headset which has good audio but shit microphone and it's bulky as fuck
Not a perfect situation but it works I suppose, I really don't want to spend any more money on things that aren't games right now

Not saying that you're a stupid idiot who got fucked over, you're happy with what you got, which is fine. Stuff is changing all the time and doing a bit of research (or just asking autists on /g/) gets you answers. They have their own general and post Sennheiser/Beyer shit and animegirls until someone drops in to ask questions.

He legitimately compared a $500 microphone that needs $50 cables and a $100-$300 amp to a microphone that costs $100.

Then he went on to talk about how USB microphones are bad because they use your motherboard's sound card. That's not how USB microphones work.

A standalone mic that is cheap is what you get, not a co-mixed mic/headset.
