There are also a few pieces of software I use in order to record and edit podcasts and videos.

The Blue Microphones RADIUS II Microphone Shock Mount helps protect the mic from picking up vibrations from small movements and knocks.This is a strong, flexible, and stable arm.Įxtras: I have a few extras here to help filter sound as it’s going into the mic, as opposed to fixing it in post. I don’t have to type around it or even necessarily keep it in camera (if I’m recording video). A Boom arm keeps the mic out of my way and off my desk. I wouldn’t change a thing.īoom Arm: RODE PSA1 Swivel Mount Studio Microphone Boom Arm. These over-the-ear headphones are great in every aspect. A good set of headphones prevents echo during recordings and lets me hear a lot more in the recordings, which helps me clean up the audio.

Headphones: Audio-Technica ATH-M50x Professional Studio Monitor Headphones. If I were buying one today, another option I might go with the Rode Podcaster, since that’s the most frequently recommended. I’ve been incredibly happy with what I’ve been able to produce. A good mic is essential and I got this one at a great deal on Amazon Prime Day 2015. I’ve spent some time finding the right tools here’s my current setup. It can take a lot of research and get a bit pricy, but the quality of what you put out makes it worth it. One important aspect of recording is making sure you have the right hardware and software. It’s a lot of work, but fun and rewarding. One also need to tune pulse audio for one's record application.This summer I started two projects that require me to be in front of a microphone: WP in One Month and How I Built It. I can't explain why one works and one does not, but I can say in BOTH cases the settings are inconsistently applied.Īlso note, with pulse audio there is more to this than just 'alsa mixer'. I note Front boost set at 69% is a wasted setting as you don't have front mic selected. I note nothing set to front mic.Ĭapture,0 at 87% is low. Again, I have no idea what the openSUSE software does with two input sources assigned.

Item0: 'Mic'Your PC has input source,0 AND also input source,2 set to Mic. Is this a digital mic ? Are you using front mic ? Rear mic ?įront Left: Capture 47 įront Right: Capture 47 Digital capture at 34% is higher than previous 5%. Why that setting? Why note just one ? I note nothing set to front mic. I have no idea what the openSUSE software does with two input sources assigned. Item0: 'Line' Simple mixer control 'Input Source',2

Item0: 'Mic' Simple mixer control 'Input Source',1 Items: 'Front Mic' 'Line' 'Mic' 'CD' 'Mix' The line is working.Ĭould it maybe be the onboard sound card, that makes trouble ?.Ĭode: Simple mixer control 'Front Mic Boost',0įront Left: Playback 22 įront Right: Playback 22 įront Left: Capture 53 įront Right: Capture 53 So the main thing would be to "only" have Line-in and mic to work, and The most serious issue now is, that I cannot find to where the mic isĬonnected -in the mixer-, and this should be fixed first. That is a thing to take care of, after the following > boost is low, and 65% playback is not as high as it could be. > Is this a digital mic ? If so, 5% capture is much too low. > *Simple mixer control 'Front Mic Boost',0*
