Just watching this made it abundantly clear to at least my ears and my taste. Hands down, the two champs in this VERY WELL produced review are the RE20 ( I mean seriously,...its still the best by a country mile and yet it gets very little love) and the Earthworks ETHOS (a soon to be legendary mic in its own right and especially in the condenser world). I'm soooo thankful to own the RE20 and will one day soon follow up with the ETHOS for the Condenser side. Thanks for another stellar review Tom!

I previously owned a RE320, because I have quite a "boxy" voice and most mics like the SM7B clouds my voice more. Because the RE320 was said to be brighter I went for that instead of the RE20 thinking it would just cloud my voice more. Several months later I had the need to buy another mic and this time I just thought of giving the RE20 a shot. Boy was I proven wrong about the muddiness. The RE20 just has a way of smoothing out the low end unlike anything I've ever tried and I've tried many of these 25 mics to get the sound I like. The mic is so full but clear at the same time, I just cannot explain it. In no way is the RE320 a bad mic, I really enjoyed it, but the RE20 makes me happy to listen to my own recordings, which isn't something I had with any other mic. This just showed me that you really need to test it out on your own voice and don't just jump on the popular choice (for me that was the SM7B).

I love how you guys talk a lot in between mic comparisons! It shows that what really counts isn't the microphone itself but the content you're talking about. Talking about interesting things makes you forget about the microphone itself and pay more attention to what you are saying. Nowadays, most microphones can sound pretty decent, as long as you don't mess up with clipping or distortion. The main thing is to keep the content interesting. I loved the format of this video Tom! Awesome job!

28:07 SOME CDs had “bonus tracks” where either the last track had dead air for a while, then another song played on the same track, or there might even be a bunch of minimal (1 second) tracks, and the last one was a bonus track. The only one I remember is Counting Crows having a cover of Big Yellow Taxi (Joni Mitchell) as a hidden/bonus track. They were often covers.

Many thanks for producing this video! I am looking for a new mic, since I was going with the Rode NT USB mini since its release, but somehow felt the need for something new. I watched this video over and over again on different headphones and speakers (Genelec, ELAC, Sennheiser HD610s, Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro, Nocs NS400A, Bose Soundlink mini, iPad, MacBook Pro & Air). My personal conclusion: I absolutely love the look of the Rode Podmic USB, but best sound signature for your voice is: Rode NT1 > Rode NT > Sennheiser Profile. The more I tried consumer grade devices, the more I liked more boomy mics. On good speakers the PodMic adds some weird fizzling noise in the upper mids, which gets quite annoying over time. Finally I am impressed how good the Sennheiser MKH50 is catching the audio with that distance. Wow! So.. will I now head for the best sound or design... xD #decisionstomake

And would there be any mic that you think would make a difference if the budget limit was raised to $300?

Pretty much any of these mics would be hard to distinguish from any of the others with a little EQ matching here and there, and keeping your face the right distance from the actual capsule (the thing that picks up sound) inside the mic. The Shure Sm7b has the capsule recessed inside its big empty schnozz, so that you CAN'T get up close with the capsule and get a big proximity effect (bass boost). That can be good for people who don't have mic skills... it keeps their tone from varying as much when they move toward or away from the mic. But if you keep the right distance from the capsule, an SM-57 or SM-58 sounds very much like the SM-7b, for a quarter of the price, and it doesn't stick its nose into your video frame as far. (You can put a big SM7b foam windscreen on a 57 or 58, sticking way out past the capule, if you want the big schnozz effect.) If you remove and bypass the impedance-matching transformer in the handle of the 57 or 58, it sounds even more like the 7b, with similarly wimpy output that you need more preamp gain for. (There are videos on YT about that.)

I don’t have the money for it, but the Ethos basically kills the SM7B, and to be honest, the Podmic USB is the BEST USB mic out there. It has a built-in DSP (or at least I think bc you can save audio processing on the mic), it doesn’t sounds too bassy like the MV7 sometimes sounds, and it isn’t absolutely atrocious like the BEACN Mic’s capsule. We have yet to see the AT2040 USB, but I highly doubt it’s better if the XLR one is anything to go by.

The “S” was the logo for Stussy. Thank you for the 90’s revival and the great mic comparisons! And yes there were secret tracks on some CDs……just had to wait like 3 minutes of silence and then the secret song would start. Lol

Does the pod mic have 32 bit? Just ordered mine
@tombuck
@tombuck Жыл бұрын
It has "gain assist" but not 32 bit...which is weird. I'm hoping it's added in a firmware update.

Thoughts... PodMic or MV7 or Sen Profile.... I'm mainly using it for online classes, but it needs to be USB and Portable. Any suggestions? Thanks! Nic Vid!!!! Lite Bright! hahahaha

all of these mics sounds amazing but I'm surprised that you have never owned Shure sm58 until this video I think that needs it own video on how it stacks up against the sure mic you own

​@@tombuck It definitely sounds great! But I've ran into an issue. It supports 96 khz and it was set to 48khz out of the box. I changed it to 96khz, was working fine. But i switched back to 48khz, and the sound was so distorted. You know any fix? And also, what does that 48khz and 96khz do? What's the difference that it makes? I'm so confused

This was great and must have been a lot of work, thank you! On the RE20 popfilter at 28:51 - it’s kind of funny (or tragic, still hesitating) that the company is called Broadcast Supply WORLDWIDE and then when I tried to order this popfilter, which is 59$ itself, the shipping cost to Europe would have been another 206$… 😮 😅

I'm with you on these issues....so many time I gave up on ordering stuff because of the end price. Then in Sweden they might even invoice you the import tax.
