Thank you Chris.. It’s 3am right now and I just got up out of nowhere and went into my studio room all motivated out of nowhere, then just sat there and did nothing. Now I’m back in bed and found this video. It’s ME 100% . I really hope your channel keeps growing, everyone starting in studio one needs to watch your videos .

I hated my $200 condenser mic then I realized I wasn't optimising its positioning, gain staging, my room, and other pre-recording steps. With experience, I downgraded to a $30 dynamic mic that gives me the sound I want. It's also superb in harsh & untreated environments. I said that to agree that gear shouldn't be an excuse. Equipment matters up to a certain point. Then the rest of the responsibility to make things sound good is yours.

[@alienfromnasa2912]

What’s the name of this mix you got for 30$? I’d highly appreciate an answer

[@BrianHoffpauer]

That's awesome that you wrote the song you guys danced to. I wrote the song that my wife walked down the aisle to. :)

[@heychrisgreen]

Those moments are extra special! Thanks for watching 😁

I was considering purchasing a new expensive mic a while back. But then I realized that Billie Eilish Ocean Eyes was performed on the AT2020, the $100 mic that I have. That put things back into perspective for me. Gear marketing can be tempting, but always look for a reason to not buy something. E.g. Why buy an expensive mic when I haven't written a song yet? 😅.

[@heychrisgreen]

I guarantee if my wife sang into a $100 mic you’d be much more pleased with her voice that than me singing into a $1000 mic 😅 Gear can’t make up for talent and skill of the singer or musician (although I guess if you’re using auto-tune… then maybe so) 🤔🤖 😂

Unrelated to to video but nice setup man. Dyou have any lighting pointers?

[@heychrisgreen]

This is my main/key light.. I’ve just got it a couple of months ago but it’s a game changer! I only have it around 18% total power so it’s beyond sufficient for talking head video.. the smaller lights I use are also from GVM. I got them in a 2 pack.. www.amazon.com/dp/B0BV249GSJ/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_ZP968465M5747TMZNFA6?linkCode=ml2&tag=chrisgreen0ac-20 That’s my Amazon affiliate link btw! Hope it helps 🫡

Well... I agree with this video fully. However, and i may ahve just been lucky, but after watching a shit ton of video comparisons and reviews. I bought a lauten audio clarion mic and i am crazy crazy happy with it

[@heychrisgreen]

I’ve heard great things about Lauten Audio! Glad you’ve had good results 🙂

and it's well with me.

[@0xF15h]

Yes, Robert Plant was there.

[@0xF15h]

We all know. Like, but do you really know? And you already know. What there is to say no to.
