Unboxing and setting up Marantz MPM-1000U

Marantz MPM1000U Mic - amzn.to/47ELgwp
In this video, I unbox and set up my Marantz MPM-1000U usb microphone.
The change in audio from my on camera Rode Micro to the Marantz is noticeable straight away, however, as I point out in the video, there are a few other factors you need to take into consideration when using this type of microphone for voice overs, piece to camera etc.
I bought my set up from Amazon and I’ve put a link above if you’re interested in getting one yourself. I’d earn a small commission from anything you do buy which is hugely appreciated, as it helps me make new videos.
Thanks for watching, even if it is only for my bloopers at the end...

Thumbs up and liked 😂 It would've been handy to see where you were in relation to the mic.

[@NeilShelbyLong]

Anti Duck Thanks 😁 The mic is literally just out of frame below me and just in front. I’d say no more than 30cm away.

what shock mount fits the mpm 1000u

[@NeilShelbyLong]

I’m no expert I’m afraid. I’m not using one. Can anyone else suggest a suitable shock mount?

[@CosminAnton]

hello! nice video :) how the microphone performs after 1.5 years? still recording ? :) thanks

[@NeilShelbyLong]

Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it. Yes, it’s still all good. It’s a solid but simple piece of kit, and I’m still very happy with it.

[@CosminAnton]

@@NeilShelbyLong thank you for your quick answer !

[@subkutan22]

dont know how to fix laatency on this

[@NeilShelbyLong]

Hi. I’m not an audio expert I’m afraid, but there are a few articles online that can help reduce this lag.

[@MikeleKonstantyFiedorowiczIV]

i think old micro has better high tones, but marantz has better lows

[@NeilShelbyLong]

Good points. Thank you. :-)

[@MikeleKonstantyFiedorowiczIV]

@@NeilShelbyLong yee 20-20khz is best to bad cheap microphones Cant take full frequencies. Maybe chinesse like novox maono itp. But overall marantz is marantz. But i must said sound like this in long listening is tiring for ear. Old micro maybe has lower quality But sound was more easy to listen. I bought today this micro too, now waitin for deliver.

[@NeilShelbyLong]

Good luck with the new mic. Hopefully it won’t take too long to arrive . 👍🏻😊

[@MikeleKonstantyFiedorowiczIV]

@@NeilShelbyLong it takes about month but overall i got him, nice micro but like in movie, this microphone cant take the highest tones but overall its good microphone if you dont pay to much

[@Ollzsy]

lol im sorry i wass told to do this haha Got to sound less boring

[@NeilShelbyLong]

On it 👍🏻
