[@dman84]

I appreciate the review! After watching I'm not sure I'm fan..it really really dampens the voice, which in a studio or hit record, they always have reverb & stereo spread.. sure you could do it in the mix, but why do that if you could just record properly?? Thx man!

[@Sekhuhadjo]

Great job! K (Elib) you guys are learning from one of the Good teachers!

[@beatkultr]

+MUSIC MILLIONAIRES thanks man. Your not bad yourself lol

[@BkBangatv]

I love the Eyeball. use it for most all my recordings. and like Elib says its not a complete noise cancelations. so approach purchase with caution if that is a major concern.

Bk Banga right on the head! Thanks

[@joorchampi3346]

I want to buy one, but I like also the HALO REFLEXION (Sorry my English just I am studyng?) Anyone know how work halo? Is better?? thanks a lot!!!

[@BobbysWorldd]

Amazing edit and review bro

[@beatkultr]

Holl0w Tlp thanks

[@HydetheRapper]

I got one of these this last Christmas and was initially disappointed. I found that it gave me a really boomy vocal. But this video made me want to try again with it, see if it was user error somehow.

[@beatkultr]

Yeah keep me posted.

[@driza97]

yep, eyeball is the truth. recieved mine the other day. highly recommend. yep!

[@essegotdatheat3310]

Sounded like it really tightened up the low end..:. My booth in my studio is relatively and gets boomy around 250-600 hz so I might get this to try it out and see if it helps me get cleaner recordings.... I also record my self in the control room (which isn’t as well treated as my booth) so I want to try it out on myself as well. I’m gonna get one and let you know how I feel, but this video kinda made it seem like it’s exactly what I need 😂

[@beatkultr]

Prodbyesse yeah keep me posted

[@egor3167]

You got it?:)

[@essegotdatheat3310]

Ok, I got it, it’s amazing. It kinda sucks in the booth for anyone with a deep voice but honestly recording out in the room with it sounds amazing!! Definitely recommend.

I use an Eyeball and it's great. Deadens the room completely without an ugly foam wall or the stupid blankets. You want dead sound when recording, then do what you want to it in the mix. Best and most cost effective solution there is.

[@frapucheno2726]

I’m getting one for my SM7B ... I have a terrible room with noise floor and background noise so I have to make sure just in case even though my mic will be Dynamic ...

[@C0V10R]

Can the SM7b fit inside the eyeball? I think it's too big to fit inside the eyeball/ I have a SM7b and a C414 XLII and the latter will definitely fit tho. Doubting the SM7b will. Can you let me know whether fits?

[@frapucheno2726]

Cas Vriens Will do man I ordered the SM7B today it won’t ship till July 6 - 11th (free shipping for me)

[@C0V10R]

'Sup, fam? Does it work with eachother?

[@AyoToine]

The only problem was you sound fuller without the filter...it cuts out alot of low end which is something you might want depending on the application...but you can replace it with a slight eq bump in the low mids....you dont need anything below 60HZ anyways in a vocal anyways

[@beatkultr]

Antoine Yetts when recording vocals to music, this works. Less works on the mix engineer because you went thru a filter.

[@AyoToine]

KsndDEF Ik I’m just referring to times where you have a tenor or bass type instrument wether it be a vocalist or brass or whatever the case may be .... or even those movie voice over people who wants ....that deep part where the proximity effect kicks in that’s all I agree for Vocals in General hell yeah it works .... however I wouldn’t spend $300-$400 On it

[@beatkultr]

Antoine Yetts to be honest I wouldn’t use this on brass Instruments. I usually go the live room method. At that point it’s about room acoustics. I would use a reflection filter if I need to.

[@essegotdatheat3310]

If you’re in a small booth that gives boxy vocals (even tho walls are treated) it might help counteract that... I’m gonna get it this weekend try it out and see how it helps my situation out

[@RayoBeatz]

People are looking for noise floor elimination not microphone filtering and you wont get a treated sound without a treated room the next best thing is to use a low noise floor interface with a low noise amplifier like the cloud lifter which adds zero noise but gives you 25+ dbs while being at 0db on your interface coupled with an nt1a and you will at least have an easier time adding in gates, or noise editing plugins that will leave a clean and i mean clean track which means cleaner effects on those recorded tracks which translates to easier mixing

[@MIELOINOFFICIAL]

How much it weight? Cant find that information anywhere.

Do you mix on Studio One??? Any tips on getting crisp vocals, I have the Blue mic as well, but it tends to end up in muddy mixes. Maybe the people I'm recording have verrrry deep voices

[@beatkultr]

Of course I mix in studio one. I would have to hear the vocals before I give tips

[@ahooramahonemusic]

Hi, thanks for the review! Do you know if a Shure SM7B could fit into this item? And would it be necessary/benefitial to use one on a SM7B?

[@beatkultr]

Ahoora Mahone I don’t think you need this for a sm7b. The default foam around that mic is pretty thick already.

[@ahooramahonemusic]

[@theofficialmystery3715]

I have a problem with the noises coming from street. Even though i reduce the input, it still catches noises, and i don't feel comfortable getting close to the mic.

[@beatkultr]

The Official MysterY you may need to look into a dynamic mic which is one directional where the polar pattern is very narrow.

[@cgecoolie1906]

use a noise gate while you record

Not a fan. You can treat a whole room catching Acoustic Panels on sale. Foam does not cancel the lower frequencies as Panels do! Plus with a treated room you can record AND MIX + MASTER. Yes it helps with bleed and ambiance BUT... You also sacrifice a full body vocal. Facts. But hey! Good vid none the less.

[@babyluvly]

Is the eyeball and the pop filter different

[@beatkultr]

Baby Jo yes. The eyeball covers and filters around the entire mic where as a pop filter is only placed in the front which protects against plosives. Pop filters does not filter the mic front floor or ambient noise like the eyeball does.

Where can I purchase one??

[@kaemillian9800]

I have a lot of noise coming from my mic does anyone know any tips

[@beatkultr]

Kae Millian check your cables, switch them out. Make sure your connection is solid. Make sure to record in a quite environment. Things you think can’t be picked up in a condenser mic can be because these types of mics are sensitive. Dynamic mics are built different and designed to pick up only what’s directly in front of it. That’s why this foam piece in the video is designed to help filter unwanted sounds but it’s not a vocal booth.

[@ibkbabz9403]

Hey man, what mic stand are you using?

[@beatkultr]

The exact one I’m using is in the Amazon list in description

[@ibkbabz9403]

[@djwillbryan]

very good review, but I can't justify paying 200 bucks for a foam mic cover. The $4 miv cover have on my blue yeti mic, really does a good job. I can't understand how a $198 worth of foam would make me sound that much better. Good review though. Thorough!

[@beatkultr]

It’s not for everyone, but thanks

[@tabitharasaproject]

It's not a pop filter -- it replaces a vocal booth. It deadens the sound in the room so it records perfectly flat. Just like a vocal booth but cheaper and smaller.

[@consciensnesttv3775]

It's just marketing lol

[@Musicmanbutte]

I liked that video, but I also have another question. I have studio 1 3, how do I get rid of the echo when I am trying to record in my studio one. Sorry, that this question is off base of your review, but when I seen that you where using studio 1 I had to ask you. Hope to hear from you soon. I subbed, so maybe if you do a video about it I will get it.

[@beatkultr]

Musicman Butte the echo is usually caused by the interface monitor being active as well as the monitor in studio one being active. Two monitors on at the same time creates an echo where as one of them are delayed from the other. Just deactivate one of those and you should be fine.

[@Musicmanbutte]

@@beatkultr Well, I did what you said and it fixed the problem. Thanks for helping me out. I was thinking about UN-installing Studio one, now I don't have to. Thank you sir.

[@beatkultr]

wellllll, thats debatable. This thing does a great job filtering my mics and I can tell the difference in quality versus a cheaper option. There is good alternatives to this but keep in mind the quality might not be the same. At the end of the day, you have to decide if this is worth it to you after watching other reviews. The best way to know is by testing yourself.

[@edenalekssandria]

So, I thought this foam ball worked as a noise canceller. If it doesn’t do that, what’s the point of it. I ain’t spending $200 on this crap. Scheduling studio space is more effective than this. #disappointed

[@beatkultr]

Edén Alekss not sure who told you this was noise canceling. There’s nothing you can buy that will cancel noise. Mics naturally pick up everything. This product like others alike was created to help filter certain frequencies such as low floor noise and reduce room noise. If you have the cash to go to a professional studio and the patients to book a time that fits your schedule, then that’s usually the idea. But for those who have the gear to record at home constantly pushing out new songs and making money, this is a great investment. You gotta look at it from all angles. If you’re a hobbyist, then your comment makes sense.

[@edenalekssandria]

I was just trying to look for options to not have to foam up my whole room. I don’t have the money for either actually, but I think it would make more sense to book studio time. I love the idea of experimenting and crafting my songs on my own ‘cause it’s cheaper and I can do whatever I want, but the background noise is what kills me. Do you have any advice on that?

[@stealthstar4]

@@edenalekssandria All the studio time you book will definitely go over the foam mic price. Pay a one time fee and you can get the same quality as the studio.

[@edenalekssandria]

Stealth Star but you just told me that it doesn’t cancel outside noises. What’s the point of having what you are “selling” me if it’s not going to satisfy my needs? I’m not looking for studio sound, I’m looking for no outside/unwanted noises.

[@SUZtypebeat]

Edén Alekss studio time is expensive, if you’re anything like me you probably always wanna be recording on your own in the comfort of your own room. i don’t know what type of mic you have but with compression and eq background noise is minimal and this would be the cherry on top if you make your own stuff. i say it’s worth it but that’s just my opinion 🤷🏽‍♂️

Bruh three church socks.... Save 200 dollars. Treat your room acoustically. It will cost you about the same as this foam nerf helmet. There are budget options. You don't need a booth. Just treat your room.
