Sterling Audio ST155 FET Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone REVIEW

[@Bassic778]

That's a very nice-sounding mic and seems to be well-built and high-quality!!! I don't need another voiceover mic but I may have to buy this one! That track sounds great!!!

[@Tgotdakey]

I just got this mic and it feels so good with the case it comes with

[@7PastMidnight]

Great video man I think I made up my mind on a new microphone, very talented songwriting by the way! Keep it up!

how to reduce diaphragm on sterling microphone st155?

[@okioki1131]

Would I need a preamp going from this to a Scarlett 2i2?

[@PhillyWatts]

No, the Focusrite 2i2 has its own preamp built in. Some people use a separate preamp to add a different color, but you don't need it at all.

[@okioki1131]

@@PhillyWatts Thanks!

[@afmggamez8193]

Great work bro! Thank you for that verse too!

[@diarynimyat]

I just unboxing my new microphone which is the st155 but I dunno how to set up😭

[@PhillyWatts]

Do you have an audio interface? If so, plug it in using an xlr cable and make sure to turn on phantom power.

[@PovElijah]

Can I use an XLR to USB cable for PC?

[@gRosh08]

Cool Mix.

[@PhillyWatts]

Thanks ✌️

[@babysitting591]

Does yours have lots of sibilance how do you get around that? I have one but it seems to cut my head off when I say s words.

[@PhillyWatts]

Tremaine Brown To be honest, mine sound very natural to my ears. I use a de-esser to tame some of the sibilance. Have you tried that yet?

[@babysitting591]

Yes and that does work. I appreciate the response. I just don't really like using a de-esser and I understand that Chinese made products tend to have a more detailed high end eq wise. I was just wondering if you had a technique or was it my interface. Although I've tested it on a mac and windows computer and two different interfaces I had bought one and it did have a defect that I purchased from guitar center. I had to travel 8 hrs to exchange it and I'm just trying to make sure I didn't run into the same thing.

[@babysitting591]

Philly Watts typically does your require a lot of gain input? Or do you have a separate preamp for example I have the art tube mp the input works fine when I use extra gain although the sibilance is still sharp. Perhaps my ears just have to adjust to these mics.

[@PhillyWatts]

Tremaine Brown Honestly, the clarity I'm getting out of mine is outstanding, with not too much sibilance. Obviously, you're using phantom power and have tried multiple interfaces so that may not be the problem. What microphone were you using before? Maybe you're not used to it like you said.

[@PhillyWatts]

Tremaine Brown Also, are you using the high pass filter on the mic? That could cause it to sound like extra highs are coming through. Besides that, a low pass filter around 18-20 kz afterwards in your DAW can help.
