philodox Posted 7 hours ago Report Posted 7 hours ago Not sure if this is the right section as it's not in the field, but does this look like a good microphone position for when I'm recording/streaming? Is the pop filter setup correctly? Should I be using the foam cover or is that only for outside/wind? I have my old phone setup as my camera and the pixel 6 does an excellent job. Mostly just wanted the arm to hold the microphone and my phone and to allow me to lower my monitor (the phone used to be setup below it attached to the stand), but it came with some accessories. Came with a shock mount as well but that seems to be for a different (larger diameter) microphone.
grawk Posted 5 hours ago Report Posted 5 hours ago If you get pops and rustles when talking without the foam then use it. Otherwise you don’t need it. But they don’t hurt spoken voice really anyway. as to the position, just experiment and find what sounds best to you. what microphone is that?
philodox Posted 1 hour ago Author Report Posted 1 hour ago Thanks, that helps a lot. It's a Marantz M4U. It seems to work pretty well, though I think I'll eventually buy the Shure one you recommended. But will likely get a proper sound card first. (using the USB interface that came with the Marantz for now)
