    Microphone Tips

    Ok so basically, I use a BM 800 to record my UTAU now, but I wanna get the absolute best quality I can from this mic alone, I've tried editing in audacity and even using Voicemeeter but nothing is working. there's noise, it's also very soft sometimes and tbh I want more bass in it. any tips?

    Microphone recommendations?

    My budget, I guess is as long as it doesn't go over $200 - $300, I'm good. The only thing I'm using it for UTAU wise is a VCV bank, possibly a tripitch, but I'm not sure yet. I just know that the last time I recorded a bank, it came out really strange and metallic sounding. My UTAU's voice...

    good STARTER MIC to give to FRIENDS starting with making UTAUs?

    Hello! So long story short I have a few friends who would like to have an utau on their own but have no microphones to record with. I have a Blue Yeti myself and use it to record my UTAU but it is fragile and I can't transport it. I need a USB mic that is sturdy (as in they would probably...

    Various Mic Comparison Archive

    Hello all! I noticed a lot of people asking for mic recommendations lately, so I thought instead of having people end up being bombarded with all the suggestions, I'd make a thread to let the asker pick which mic sound they like more! Because you never know if a mic recommendation will suit your...

    I need help choosing a new mic!

    First off, I apologise if this is in the wrong section! I'm looking for a new mic and I stumbled across the Shure PG27, AT2035 and the Samson C01U. And I'm having trouble on choosing between the three. Something that I've noticed is that the Shure PG27 is also sold as a USB mic. I was...

    Any advice for people recording without a mic?

    There's no way my parents are buying me a mic, even if it is cheap, because they view UTAU as a waste of time for me so I'm on my own. I'm aware that you can use headphones as a mic, but my chromebook doesn't have a mic port and the mac is downstairs where everyone else always is, so it's going...
