Hello bro what is your setting in manage audio devices the hz and bits?

[@caspermac]

there was definitely alot of popping on the maono. but at that pricepoint it's a bit expected. It is nice that the include the boom arm, pop filter, and shock mount. And the fact that they have realtech drivers is dope

you forgot that he did NOT use any popfilter there at all . using that it would be the best sounding mic there .. in my book ofc .. to each ones own

[@Downut_]

Damn, and I thought the FiFine was the best budget mic. This review really helped me since I'm starting my channel and all I needed was a great cheap mic, thanks man 👍

[@ttvunashamedalchemist7002]

This is a great video my guy. Love finding videos like these. Not nonsense, just clear tests and on point facts etc. makes a lot of decisions easy and takes out half of the effort for me lol. I’m currently using a Blue snowball with a virtual soundboard as well as a windscreen. I was using a pop filter but I had a cheap one and it was just too in the way and the windscreen did just about the same. For my videos and streams my snowball does well, but I’m thinking of maybe upgrading in the future. Do you think this Maono would be an upgrade from a snowball or a downgrade? I don’t really do VA work, more streaming/chatting/video making type content. Not sure if you have any experience with the snowball, but any advice/opinions would be great!

[@LifeKommando]

I think its going to be a definite upgrade, get the new model instead of this one, glad you liked it :)

[@FranzEscolasticoDesigns]

Just what I needed. Thank you!

[@MARS-eb8pt]

You can also turn up the gain real time on the maono with apps and get closer to the mic to get that deeper effect he got when he did that on the Fi-fine

[@hamzakasim2376]

hmm in my opinion the blue yeti was worse than the Maono. Maybe it's just me.

[@micholous]

Yeah, i agree

[@LifeKommando]

In some cases yeah it may sound better than the Yeti, but if you are using high quality headphones you can hear more detail in the Yeti, which helps when editing the audio. In the end does it really matter? Not really, in the end most of the people who will listen to the audio in the end will most likely not care and can't tell the difference.

[@Sevo-]

@@LifeKommandoidk, I mean if you're using a condenser mic vs a headset mic it would probably make a difference

The production is really nice and the point is very clean. Obviously you deserve more views. And thanks for that nice review! My only question is will this microphone be good for using it in streaming as first one?

[@LifeKommando]

Thanks, I would tell you to get it but check out my updated video regarding the change in hardware, it no longer sounds the same. If you want the same or better quality, get either the PM422 or PM421 as they use the same good old chip + having extra features. Since these mics have a flattish profile you can easily tweak them through OBS's new feature that lets you EQ your mic live :)

[@mrAlmaznik]

@@LifeKommando thank you very much! Saw your recent video about this mic after writing a comment. And also thanks for that advice with OBS! Will try it out!
