Blue Spark Microphone Review!

2012-03-27
hey what's up guys welcome to a sort of a peek inside the mkbhd audio setup so thumbs up if you like this today we're taking a look at this the blue spark microphone and yes it's orange okay now that we got that out the way this is the microphone that you seen or heard me using in the past few videos and for my experience with it this mic is absolutely top-notch quality everything about this microphone from the packaging down to the body of the mic and the chromed metal materials just screams high quality now the most important feature about this microphone is that it's an XLR microphone and you can get this XLR cable from just about anywhere I'll leave a link in the description now some of you guys might be staring at your computer like whoa where's that port I don't have that well don't fret your computer probably does not have an XLR port so this here is the blue icicle any audio interface will do and this will convert from analog to digital which is XLR to USB and the mic also comes with this magnificent shock mount which is also all metal and isolates the mic from extra vibrations and stuff that can cause noise and it comes with this sweet pop filter it looks cool I didn't think it would work but I mean I mean just look at it but it actually has worked surprisingly well but just look at that body but seriously check out the body on that that is per - classy right there but the most important part of having a microphone and why you spend all the money on it is how it sounds so how does it sound you tell me you listen to it right now this is a blue spark plug directly in via the XLR cable to the icicle directly into USB in my computer I think it sounds pretty good if you want to know my opinion but obviously you're listening to it listen to this video in 1080p and you put headphones on you might be able to hear my roommate breathing in the background each probably keep that down this is a great microphone for vocals because it is a large diaphragm condenser microphone which means it gets a full dynamic range of your voice and also I'm using with the focus mode off right now so if you have a particularly deep voice like really deep voice you'll get all the bass tones in your voice and it'll sound really really rich and just come through the microphone there is literally zero background noise and that's thanks to it first of all being really high quality and also having a good USB and XLR cable so yeah I'd recommend this spark to just about anyone who's getting into entry-level XLR microphones I did a video previously on my DAC which is a digital to analog converter it's another audio thing you should probably check out if you're into audio and a sweet pair of headphones so there you go nice pair of headphones nice audio interface you pretty much set for audio for me so far hum unless you have any other requests in the comments below but yeah tell me how you think it sounds either way I'll talk to you guys the next video the link to the lowest price is in the description of this video right next to the thumbs up button so even thumbs up if you enjoyed thanks for watching guys peace
