Antlion Audio ModMic Wireless Attachable Uni- and Omni- Directional Microphone with Mute Switch, Compatible with Mac, Windows PC, PlayStation 4 and more

Product Information

For XLR mics, you'll also need an audio interface and an XLR male to female cable to hook up your microphone. Yes, ModMic can work with a PC. It can also work with Linux, Mac, PS4, and any other USB type A device. Conclusion You then take the ModMic and affix it to the side of your headphones, probably the left ear as is standard. A bit of 3M double-sided tape holds it in place, and…that’s it. Your headphones are now a headset.

To operate with most gaming systems and mobile devices, you’ll need a headset splitter (which isn’t included).

Step 1: For mics in uni-directional mode (noise cancelling): ensure that the Mic icon on the tip of the boom (just before the pop filter) is facing your mouth. Consoles require a Y adapter . Note that any TRRS type Y adapter will work. Simply plug both the headphone and the mic into the Y adapter first, then plug it into the 3.5mm port in your controller. Older Xbox 1 controllers require a stereo adapter. Newer Xbox controllers should have a 3.5mm port immediately available.

NeeGo Attachable Microphones are known primarily for their efficient noise reduction ability. This Modmic alternative is one of the cheapest you can get out there with a quality that is almost rivaling the more expensive ones. Gain affects the magnitude of the change. Don’t go overboard, 6-7dB is probably near the maximum you’ll want to adjust in any EQ adjustment. This value can also be negative!

This makes it easier to bend to any position where it is most comfortable -sitting or sleeping. It also has an inline mute switch that allows you to have an outside conversation without turning off your call or game. Pros In particular we’re going to be showing screenshots from two common programs: EQ APO and Voicemeeter. We once again see the same frequency selection, and just like the low shelf filter, we’re going to set this to corner and this time to a much higher number. We suggest starting with a value of 3,000hz. This gives you a nice gradual increase from the upper mid-range. Typical reasonable ranges for this kind of filter would be from ~2,000hz all the way up to 5,000hz.

Remember: You can use a negative gain value to improve a “muffled” sound! Adjusting Treble, AKA: High Shelf Filter The V-Moda BoomPro X microphone is adjustable for perfect microphone positioning. It also comes with an extension cable that allows for longer-range use. Don’t forget it also comes with up to 5 different colors for personalization. ProsSo what’s the difference, and why would you need to have these two microphone modes on this ModMic? Some of the features include enhanced voice clarity, a corded unidirectional microphone, and beautiful customization options. Step 5: Try using the mic with a USB adapter if you have one. Or, if you are having problems and the USB adapter is in, try without it.

That makes Yeti X an excellent choice for gamers with not-so-ideal room acoustics. It offers four polar patterns, and you don’t need other expensive interfaces since it’s simply plug & play. But what about when you’re wearing those same headphones and need to be on an important business call? While the software experience is best-in-class, the Wave 3's hardware has been developed cleverly too. A single dial on the front can be pressed in to switch between adjusting gain, headphone volume and the mic/PC mix, while a capacitive sensor on the top allows for a one-tap mute (indicated with a clear red LED). There are no different capture patterns here, as on the Blue Yeti, but for recording a single person's speech this is no problem. Make sure to mount the ModMic so that any cables are pointing down, and out of the way for easier use. Also, when mounting the ModMic, make sure that the microphone is located approximately two fingers width away from the corner of your mouth. You can also buy extra base clasps, which come with a pre-installed 3M pad from our store at http://www.modmic.com/collections/clasps/products/base-claspsThis is a great alternative to modmic. It consists of a patented tri-capsule technique that enables the production of crisp, transparent and clean grapes. All three microphone condensers are capable of recording under any scenario without noise interruption, making it a great choice in playing and streaming. The mic also has four modes: stereo , cardiovascular, omnidirectional and bidirectional.
