Just..... Welll Have you counted how many times you say "You know?" I'm sorry your vid is great, but it catched my attention and at a point, it was the only thing I was paying attention to..

[BrickSh0t7]

@elbeaver883 Yeah, I know it is a problem. It is a hard habit to break. Thank you for watching the video despite the mindless "you knows". :) Thanks for the feedback and I will continue to work on curbing my bad habits.

would you say this is better then the audio technica usb at2020 microphone ? or the samson co1u? when actually recordin does this microphone have clea vocals?

Your "you knows" are no big deal. Good video, good, thorough review. Thanks.

Do you have any advice for any settings or mic placement? I've tried everything the manual said and nothing has fixed the sound. It gets random busts of noise in the middle of recording so I turn the gain down but as soon as i do that i barely get any sound

Hey can I use this USB mic with an external Audio interface I have because my build in computer soundcard is not as good?

[paulomoura2]

@mursinary187 i have at2020 its crystal clear =')

@schneo Ok i found a solution. I put the mic slider to zero on Audacity and the mic gain to max on the Shure and it seems to behave normally then. Not sure if it's the way to do though.

i just bought the PG27USB, very happy of the sound quality. Unfortunately the signal LED doesn't lit up normally. I have to actually yell to see it green and it's nearly impossible to have it orange. I've adjusted the mic gain on the Shure but impossible to have the signal LED green without 100% clipping in Audacity (and i'm at 0db setting in the knob behind). Any idea if there is a setting to adjust that or could it be faulty?

hey BrickSh0t7, what microphone would you recommend to record enviroment sounds? I wanto make a teaser / trailer and i need to record various ambient sounds. Wind / tree / birds / cars going by. I also want to record in good detail, motorcycle exhausts sounds. Any idea? or i have no idea what im talking about and theres no such mic? ;)

@BrickSh0t7 can you help me, do you know what mic would work with hd pavilion 7909?

[IStayFlyiii]

@mursinary187 Hell Yeaaa. This And The Pg42 Are By Far The Best USB Microphones Made Yet... These Mic Exceed Even Better For Music Recording...

Very well done
