Condenser mics pick up more of the space, and some dynamics can as well when they're in a weird capsule with the gain up sufficiently high.
You'll get a lot of keyboard noise if you put this on a desk stand.
Learn about AI noise filters, or just regular noise gates, or stick with dynamics and get a boom arm.
Will defintely pick it up, I have it mounted on a boom arm and it picks up my MX Keys
If anyone used this, review?
Not seeing a review I trust on a quick glance, but visually and tonally it seems like it's a re-tuned Razer Seiren Mini, with the re-tuning bringing in some warmth (mid-bass boost), and dialling in the sibilance a bit. Detail is down a little, but overall it's arguably a better tuning.
The Razer Seiren X is a step up IMO, and regularly goes on sale for $80ish via the same Amazon UK mechanism.
I have one and use it for my podcast for the last year or so.
Co-host had a Razer Seiren Mini which for some godforlorn reason did not record natively in Windows in 2 channel stereo (mono only) which caused havoc for editing in Audition.
This microphone hasn't skipped a beat, it's sensitive to picking up keyboard strokes but not too bad. I just edit it out in post.
Thanks again ozbargain for making me impulse buy something
This or spend a bit more for rode nt USB Mini?
Ha, good timing. Was recently reading about the RE20 some podcasts use, but at this price, hard to pass up
Just bought, note that when i purchased it was adding shipping charges for some unknown reason. I contacted Amazon and they also did not know why the shipping was added so they refunded the shipping charge after i ordered YMMV
I’m trying to order and shipping charges are coming for me too. The amazon guy said that they will refund the delivery amount when it is delivered.
Btw what is YMMV?Yeah thats what i got told too just after i had submitted the order, must be to stop people cancelling straight away and bank the promotional credit lol
Your mileage may vary
How does this perform when you've got a mechanical keyboard? (Cherry Browns in my case)
I type notes during video calls and worry that a better mic will pickup the sound of my typing
