I bought this after Bark’s review. It’s a steal at $70. The USB mode is substantially darker than XLR. For that reason, XLR mode is much better, clearer, brighter for my voice. Great review. Great Kitty Purr Test!

I just ordered this FDUCE SL40 today with an Elgato Wave XLR. One thing about the mic I really like is the USB and XLR can be used at the same time, I would think they show up as separate mics in Windows, and by doing so I can have the XLR going to OBS for the stream, but use USB in my game so I can use the mute button when I want to talk on stream since the controls on top only work with the USB part of the mic. Also, if I wanted to do a dual computer setup, I could use the XLR to the streaming PC, while using the USB to the game PC. I hope it all works the way I think it does in my mind. Love the audio quality of both the XLR and USB. Currently using a Blue Snowball, but I really wanted the W-Link software and didn't like the look of the Wave mics.

Actually, if you think about it you’d have to say logically that you would NOT think XLR and USB would sound the same. With basically any combo mic the preamp and analog-to-digital converters in the (cheap) mic are going to be drastically different than those in an audio interface that runs the mic when using an XLR connection 👍 Anyway, killer vids - thanks for all the testing!

If you're considering buying this mic, buy an audio interface or mixer that you can plug this mic into using XLR. Because if you connect it via usb, the gain of the mic isn't actually changing, it just changes the mic volume output. So if you clip (which you will 100% do if you speak slightly above your normal speaking volume) there's no way to change the gain and the buttons will just reduce the volume so you're still gonna be clipping the mic, it's just gonna be at a lower volume. This mic sounds amazing via XLR though 👍

I do this thing where I buy something then continue watching reviews about it after I have it just to confirm my decision and I picked this up a couple days ago from Amazon for $55 now. I like it from the little I've used it. A bit bass-y which I don't mind, but I can't get the headphone monitor volume to adjust. I don't plan to use that feature much anyway so it's not a deal breaker. I reached out to FDUCE anyway but I won't be devastated if I don't hear back from them. For the sound test, I could pick out the FDUCE as C, but I don't know the other ones well enough. But idk how people can like the RODE pod mic. It's so harsh sounding! I would definitely get fatigued listening to it. It is clear, but it's sharp. Also I was surprised that F kinda sounded like a phone mic lol

@@a_Weird_one Yeah, I kept it. I like the sound of it. I bet the quietness is on Nvidia's side. If you're using it with USB, just make sure the volume in Windows is up all the way (or to a good level). I have mine hooked up with XLR to a little Fifine mixer and it works well. I did have to contact support since the USB volume controls weren't working, so they gave me a little discount. But now with XLR it doesn't use those controls so it's fine.

While B, D, E and G sound pretty good, the Samson mics sound the worst. Thereby and by having checked nearly all comparing mic reviews, the best dynamic USB mics for streaming (means: focus on voice and speech) seem to be: Deity VO-7U, Rode XDM-100 and Shure MV7. All of which still have their own downsides: - Deity VO-7U: you need to use it with free software (at least in Windows via Equalizer APO + some VSTs, Volume² and TorkilsMicMuter) to adjust it to your own voice, cope with the sibilances (de-essing), eliminate the floor & surround noise and kill off the RGB completely (esp. when muting) - Rode XDM-100: very heavy and big/bulky (esp. with the shock mount which you need to mount it on an arm), buggy and bloated software (which you need to run in order to use and adjust the mic) - Shure MV7: it has Micro-USB (and not USB-C), very sensitive to plosives which could be handled with the Shure RK345 windscreen, has a big advertising logo jumping straight to the camera For the XLR part, there is no "best" dynamic option (with focus on voice and speech) but some reasonable ones as you have to consider the overall costs incl. the corresponding costs for an interface which can deliver enough gain to drive those mics, I would say to stay below $ 500: - Shure MV7X: see above and use the RK345 windscreen - Rode Procaster: heavy and big, a bit bassy which can be solved via EQing - SE DynaCaster: extremely versatile adjustable without additional software

I got the XLR-only version (SL40X) and the mic has a few problems. It is relatively hard to EQ into more "normal" levels (if wanted) and i would recommend everyone to cut a tiny bit from that very rumbly low bass, because it felt to me that this would give me some headaches over longer sessions listening to it. And its SUUUUPER touch sensitive. If you have it on a mic arm, you will hear EVERY little move or impact on it. So basically unusable for live situations, where the mic is not going to be absolutely stationary. You might resolve this in some ways with adding some very soft rubber into the attachments of the mic, but in comparison to my SM57 (that can be EQd relatively easy to sound similar) the SL40X is unusable for live streaming. That said... in general a good mic, IF they like the sound of it and cant be bothered to EQ things themselves.

I received both the K688 and SL40 and ran them through their paces, but they are too sibilant and noisy when boosting the high end. Funny enough, my Jlab Talk Go (condenser cardoid mic) and ZDM-1 (current mic) both beat them out easily.

Hmmm… I feel like I explained it during my review section pretty well. Here is a summary of what I said in my review section: The usb version of this mic is boomy for me, borderline unusable, however I do like the XLR mode… so I only like half of its capabilities. However, I understand that some people like that sound. Also, it is bad for anything other than spoken word, especially in USB mode. The way I look at grading is like this: If C is average, then that means a mic is worth the cost, it is exactly priced correctly. You’re not getting an amazing deal but you are getting what you pay for. B grade would mean I recommend it, it isn’t perfect, but I still think it is a good deal for the price. A grade means this mic is either perfect or super close to perfect and is a steal for the price. So a B in my eyes is a really good grade, the mic isn’t perfect though.

Even though I don't mind a little extra bass in my voice because I am not the lowest speaker... I still feel like the USB version of this microphone is a little over the top even for me, but some people may absolutely like that and want that." 18:04 "I would not use this microphone for instruments, especially in USB mode. In USB mode when this was trying to record (I should have said capture) the electric guitar, the high end artifacts were just awful!" 18:38 My grading section I talked about what I didn't like about this mic for over a minute directly before giving my grade... Also, a little earlier in my review section, I talk about the inconsistencies between the USB and XLR modes ( 14:31 ) for a little bit. I also did talk down about the name in the review section also lol. I am all about taking feedback and making improvements, but I feel like I was already doing what you told me to fix so I just wanted to clarify.

This blind test should be longer and slower. Such quick and short doesn't make too much sense. At least according my humble opinion.

Hmmm, have never heard this from anyone before. What doesn't make sense to you? Maybe I can shed some light on it for you.

@@AudioHotline As currently I'm looking for a good microphone, probably dynamic usb one I've watched few your videos. In others, parts for each micro are longer. Thus they somehow eliminate some impact of some temporary factors changing audio like distance etc. Everyone is moving all the time and distance is easily changing by 1-2 cm. Thus having longer fragments you can have better opinion if you like audio of the given microphone or not. If the fragments are so short, I have impression that they give some kind of random evaluation. Being so quick here for me doesn't make sense.

@@f2lo2 I did try to fit a lot in here, I even state that right before. It was close to after this video that I started limiting the amount of microphones I would put in a comparison. I was trying not to make the comparisons long, because the complaint I DID get is that the comparisons were in fact too long. I recently changed up my video formula quite a bit and I don’t do blind comparison as much anymore, I just go head to head now with fewer mics. It makes it a bit nicer so I can share more details about each mic. I personally didn’t like the way these blind tests were going so I changed it, so this comment is some what validating my change 😂

@@AudioHotline You know, you will never make happy everyone. That's obvious. But in my personal opinion those long blind tests were the most valuable in your episodes. Sometimes I was starting video from them and next I was watching some other parts. In yt studio you have the option to check how many people watched some fragments of your videos. Basing on that you might check how people estimate it. It's not perfect tool but it gives some impression (even if you should add the factor that more people watch the beginning of the video and then the number of viewers always slowly decreases). For me blind long test it's top number one which distinct you channel from others especially that there were well done. What sockets the microphone has, what dials, how to connect it etc. - those things I can easily check in technical specifications or on websites of bit Internet shops. But how microphone sound comparing to others... it's so rare. Still good luck!

@@AudioHotline At the end, please make me small favour. If you have to choose max 2 microphones for making small yt channel (indoor, voice only) with prices between 100 and 200 usd, probably dynamic ones and usb ones, which one would you select?

So wait, did he say the FDuce's internal mic-preamp shouldn't be at 100% but maybe one click down??? (toward the end of mic features?)

In the Mac OS I noticed it was at 100%, then when I turned it down I would get a clipping sound… which is weird haha. So I would just leave it at 100% and then adjust the gain with the + and - on the actual mic.

BEFORE YOU BUY🅱️ There’s a whole pool of brands with the EXACT same product. So after seeing this I went to alibaba and found this product for $20 each. So just know you are paying $100 (current price for Amazon) for a cheap Chinese dropshipping product that costs $20 to buy. For the same price you can get the Samson Q9U which competes well with the Shure MV7B
