I wanted to pick a budget usb microphone to record vocals , what are your recommendations? Additionally , what do you think of the senheiser profile?

I have reviewed a few USB mics, but I don't consider myself an expert on them. One mic that really stood out for me was the sE Electronics Neom. It is about $180 USD though...not really 'budget'. But a well-built, nice-sounding mic. I have not tried the Profile, sorry.

Surprisingly not that much info on this. So thanks for the info. Is it similar to the heritage i73 line? Just adding iconic pre amps to the interface. And unless you’re in love with the Harrison sound or the neve color with i73 would you say to stick with a traditional interface with a more neutral preamp?
@MatthewHaines
@MatthewHaines 2 күн бұрын
Thanks for your comment. The reason to buy this is the unique EQ sound, and maybe if you prefer a transformer-based input on your preamp. Otherwise, there are cheaper interfaces if you want a quality-but-neutral sound.

I'm seriously tempted to buy it mainly because it would fit in a backpack, and that would be so handy sometimes. The feature set is pretty comprehensive, too. Delay on outputs, automix, DCAs and Mute Groups with the latest update. All the connectivity options are a nice touch. The only thing that bothers me is the FX selection: from what I understand there are no compressors, no EQs, no de-essers that you can use as inserts? That would be a real shame. I can think of no technical reason not to include them. A&H has always been weird about FX, see the SQ series where if you want any -super basic- effect beyond revs, delays and a couple modulators you have to buy them separately, which is kinda lame for 4k+ consoles.

Thanks for the straight forward comparison. I was actually hoping to reduce the noise of my Mini 2 so I didn't scare wildlife so much but after watching your comparison, I would only buy these to get the brighter colours. I feel they are great quality, just lacking in the 'stealth' delivery. Nice work. I wonder if the props for the larger drones actually meet the claimed figures? Minis are very tiny blades but some of the larger DJJIs might actually benefit from them.

Hi Matthew. I've just bought the CM28 after your review. Really pleased. One issue I've noticed - when plugged into a computer via USB - I can't record in stereo. It seems to record in MS (mid-side). I've found a few people talking about this on the internet - but no solution. I can't find any specific drivers on the NEEWER site. Have you come across this?

That would be very strange if a wireless mic intentionally did mid-side recording! I primarily tested them with a single transmitter. I'm a little embarrassed to say that...I can't find my CM28s! My favorite wireless set so far, and I seem to have lost them. At least temporarily. I will test this out when I find them again.

@MatthewHaines 6 күн бұрын
Hey good news! I found my CM28s. So I just tested them and hooked the receiver up to my computer. Ms is NOT "mid-side". It's just as I thought, mono-plus-safety channel. I think the user guide says "mid-side" for some reason, but that's likely a translation error. I was able to record both mics separately to L and R in stereo mode. In Ms mode, both mics got summed to L at normal level, and to the R channel at a reduced level. No weird classical-music stereo configurations going on there. :)

As for my situation, the noise comes from my system fan. Will buying a laptop cooling pad work for me? Something like buying an external cooling fan and attach it to the laptop. Please respond to this message. I know it's more than a year since you made this video. Please help me as I am facing this problem and I have searched all over the internet for weeks. Please help me.
@MatthewHaines
@MatthewHaines 18 күн бұрын
Hi! I'm not sure a laptop cooling pad is going to help. Yes, it will keep the fan from running quite so often or as loud, but probably can't turn the fan off. So there will still be times when it's running. Unless the cooling pad is somehow dampening the sound as well. The best solution is to a) get your mic as far away as the fan as possilble, and b) get your mouth as close as possible (without overloading it). I don't know what your particular use-case is, but that's generally a good solution for most background-noise issues.

Always love seeing new videos from you sir! Your production keeps getting better and better! Fun to see you comparing these two, they both seem like solid choices! An interesting thing about the 4100 and 4400, even though they have that similar "boxy" body to the AKG C414, it still uses a center-terminated "K87 style" capsule (as opposed the "CK12 Style" edge-terminated capsule you'd normally find in a C414)! Cheers!
@MatthewHaines
@MatthewHaines 20 күн бұрын
Thanks for your kind words! As for the K87 style capsule, I mentioned that to sE. I got the sense that they weren't really trying to duplicate the sound of the C414 (which in my mind is a good thing). Even though the mic body shape certainly seems to imply C414, these mics have their own sound. Thanks for watching!

The built-in headphone jack is stereo, but you're talking about the monitor outputs. They are six mono outputs that can be grouped as up to three stereo outputs. You group them as pairs, so you could have one stereo and four mono for example.
