Morantz USB Plug and Play Microphone

I need a microphone for dubbing my videos but did not want to spend too much. Morantz has an excellent reputation for quality and this particular microphone was within my budget. I bough it through Amazon.
Do watch to the very end as I recorded my own voice, with a mid Atlantic accent, imitating the well known early voice recording by Thomas Edison. I made adjustments to that sound clip in Final Cut Pro in order to "age" the recording.

Good morning Peter I really appreciate all your videos and it is so much appreciated when you explain things like this, the equipment used to make you the number one presenter on KZbin.

Hi Derek, Thank you so much - it has made my day. Cheers. Peter

Hi Peter congratulation on your new gadget. Very nice stand

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Many thanks

Thanks for the video Peter & the classiest microphone stand I have ever seen! 😍👏👏👏👏

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Hi David, What I did not show was the weight inside. Years ago we had a car which required a huge socket (as in socket set) to remove the oil filter. It cost a lot but was justified as I was then doing my own servicing. It had been sitting at the bottom of a drawer in the workshop for a very long time and so I made the stand such that the socket would just fit inside. Cheers. Peter

And when "our" Peter Parfitt tells you, don't be doubtful. For you can take it to the bank; and it will NOT bounce, ever. GAR-OWN-TEED!. Thank you kind Sir. And take care Peter.

Very good work on the stand, looks very nice. I would like to suggest adding felt (I don't know if it is the right word) or some soft material feet, for conductivity noise dampening. The best would be to have the microphone on a suspension but it is a different subject I guess… Condenser microphones have a very bright sound, but also have a tendency to capture the room reverberation and noises. They sound great but are harder to master… Do you use a pop filter with it?

[@NewBritWorkshop]

I will be getting a pop filter. Cheers. Peter

oh, You still have X-Carve CNC machine :D You absolutely must get 3d Printer and test it ! :-) greetings from Poland

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Yes, the X-Carve is doing well and I use it a lot. Often for very simple things that only take a few minutes to make with a CNC but would be very tricky to make any other way. I would love to get a 3D printer but they are quite expensive. Cheers. Peter

@@NewBritWorkshop for example Creality Ender 3 is enough for many hobby projects and its very low cost now, about 230 euro, gives a lot of fun and practice. Good luck! 🍀

I am trying to get your plans for the Parf system table that you just developed. Your “best one yet”. I cannot find your business email to facilitate this

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Hi John, In order to get plans I need your email address. To find my email address go to my main KZbin page, click the "About" tab and that leads to my email address. I am told this has to be done on a PC. Cheers. Peter
