I AM a BROADCASTER and just ordered this MIC...very excited about receiving the SILVER/CHROME version for $23 on AMAZON!!! GR8 vid man and I also own Pyle MIK & 58 mics too and my listeners tell me I sound my BEST with them compared to my more expensive USB/CONDENSER mics. You just cannot beat a great DYNAMIC mic like the PYLE. I'm tired of people who DO NOT know how to use these mics BASHING Pyle. This particular 42 mic needs to be used up close and personal. It is a SUPERB BROADCAST mic and THX for actually using it for the vid. OBTW...30Hz-15KHz is very W-I-D-E FREQUENCY RTESPONSE!!! Like the way it brings out the BASS in your voice without subduing the MIDS and HIGHS. Very FLAT FREQUENCY RESPONSE...prob + or - 2 Db. Use a sock or windscreen to reduce POOF sounds.

This is the second video on this mic I have watched. I think the sound quality is great. It does not sound tinny. Your voice sounds pretty rich and the low end is not bad.

[@BradSnyder1]

I like that retro design. Great review man!

[@CSPTech]

Thanks! I do too haha

[@askarbin5762]

Is this microphone suitable for recording songs?

[@RubLox_Live]

would it be possible if i just stood the mic upright and linked to a 6.3 to 3.5 mm adapter and plug that into my pc? or would my pc not recognize it?

[@stavroschios]

For sure I want more videos like that, they are very interesting.Great review Colin! P.S I was waiting to hear a sample of your main mic. comparing to that retro mic. at the end of the video . :P

[@CSPTech]

My Moto 360 video was recorded with my AT2020 if that helps :)

[@stavroschios]

+Colin Snelson lol

[@meha.agarwal]

I have this one in rose gold but it’s more expensive and higher in quality. As you said it’s great for live performances But I used it today as a studio mic and it didn’t sound that good but will it improve if I add a pop filter and isolation panels Or should I buy another actual studio Mic?

[@cine-ish]

Just buy an actual condenser mic, there's no point in trying to remedy the dodginess of the mic just for studio recording when you will waste less time with a better mic

[@Champ.offisiell]

1:45 How are you able to speak that fast!

[@lazyjesus6573]

High sugar content 😝

[@SenorCuervoOficial]

Material?

[@hawknelson0724]

Will it fit in standard microphone stand

[@danielding377]

B-roll getting better and better

[@CSPTech]

Thanks :D I'm trying new things :p

[@CSPTech]

Thanks :D I'm trying new things :p

[@CSPTech]

Thanks :D I'm trying new things :p

[@danielding377]

+Colin Snelson woops, Internet kinda went crazy there

[@CSPTech]

Lol haha. Well thanks anyways! I'm trying new things everyday!

[@hantdrew]

how does this compare to the 55sh? is the 55sh 6x better as it is 6x more expensive? or would you say it's twice as better, or that much better at all? thanks!

[@vhollund]

hantdrew Don't expect this kind of insight here ;) probably pretty close to the new ones it is basically a 57 capsule in a bigger chassis

[@j.dykman607]

hantdrew qq1

[@nathanbrewer6032]

Cute for Karaoke maybe....Mono Cable, based on the TS 1/4” tip.

[@WeTheFriends]

Is not that all dynamic microphone need a preamp or microphone, including shure. On frequency response it is 30hz to 15khz, which better than shure, which is 50hz to 15khz. Is not it??

[@tina822]

Just bought this hope it was a great investment

[@alfredocea7965]

Same here, Tina.

[@TempoDrift1480]

Investment?

[@kaygenyse3198]

What are you supposed to hook it up too? Like what type of system?

[@alfredocea7965]

Likely just a speaker or amplifier.

[@SenorCuervoOficial]

Is plastic?

[@WellStudied]

Yeah great as long as you don't drop it; as i'm Shure it's not shock resistant plastic... crack! WAIT... 1/4" CABLE? wow< how much coffe did you drink before you made this? i had to turn the speed down to 75%.

[@AbcdEfg-su4oy]

Is that USB??

[@G-zero07]

They are all the same the Pyle ones are but they make good kick microphones for drums but honestly other than that they are a Pyle of crap lol get it Pyle but they are good enough to use

[@nickf.2871]

You need one with a crystal element for a good vintage mic new products like them are gonna be crap because the trash manufacturers are remaking old styles with new cheap crap since it doesnt perform well and at 35 bucks you can find the real thing people dont know what to sell those for half the time because the timeline isnt nearly complete

[@leoray1234]

It’s supposed to be vintage…so why black?

[@enriquedelolmo6535]

HA HA HA your pop filter!!! 🤫... don't tell him. HAAAAAAAHAHAHAHHA.

[@bivotarshamble3672]

Xlr cables are balanced

[@randomgeocacher]

2:38 TS must be unbalanced, one cable less than 3pin XLR; you need TRS (3pin) for balanced mono, right?

[@CSPTech]

Correct! I recommend the monoprice XLR cables, they work great for a good price. I use the 6ft ones. If you're in canada, you can get them on Amazon Here's the link to all the different sizes! bit.ly/2EKavDE

[@josh661]

This is the cheaper one. For about $45 you can get the metal one

[@WellStudied]

1/4 phone jack? Not even intended for serious use...

[@vhollund]

sounds like 57

[@independentjames1]

Not even close to a 57,it can't take any real level of sound presure whatsoever,it's a toy ,,,I've been an engineer (certified) working in pro studios for 30 years.Put a 57 on a snare,,then they this toy on it,,,shit,shit,shit sound,,it does not have the same heads as a 57 .I took this shit apart and pulled the head out,,plastic Chinese crap toy.

[@endi3386]

Jamez Blackjack You seem very passionate about how bad it is... it really doesn’t sound nearly as bad as you make it out to be

[@kamspork8408]

plastic, thanks!!

[@heavnxbound]

*just for the lolz*

[@DJDDT1]

Jeez, it’s $75 in 2020...

I just bought a new one a couple days ago in 35$ on ebay

[@djtoman6875]

$30 right now in 2023. Got one in black.

[@ngzcaz]

Geez...... I was expecting some kind of demo other than talking ??

[@karinaperdomo5046]

He was using it through the whole video...

[@jeffroxas6519]

“Didn’t use the cable cuz you don’t really trust it” - you may want to check how product reviews work 😒

[@cine-ish]

Not necessarily, the cable that are shipped with xlr mics are usually absolute dogshit so using the one shipped with the mics aren't a good judge of character

[@independentjames1]

That thing is a toy,,,tried one out myself ( I'm a certified audio engineer),,,that toy can't take any kind of SPL,,if you sing with power it distorts,,,total garbage.if you are looking for a GOOD REAL vintage style mic just get a Shure

[@CSPTech]

+Jamez Blackjack haha yeah it's not amazing. I looked at the 55sh quite a few years back, this was mostly just a throwback for a laugh.

[@independentjames1]

Everything about this thing is a joke

Of course, go and get a Shure 55Sh with those 35 bucks, i have the same exact and yeah, it's not a high quality mic but please, give it a break! you're comparing a 35$ mic with a 150$ mic, you're not fair with the cheap mic. I use it for live gigs (small ones) and it works good! it got a little digital hiss but is really minimum, i think for 35 bucks you have a great deal (more with that nice retro design)

[@CoronaVirus-nx9et]

Too many talk! Go directly to the point

[@josamabingundyakawarpath9429]

Poor man's mic lol have u ever tried a real mic?
