By day I'm a professional boom operator working in the motion picture industry any other time, I'm a sound geek with a passion for teaching my craft. There are many aspects of sound that aren't taught anywhere online because many professional tricks are kept hush hush amongst pros. This is where this channel is unique. Anyone can have an opinion as to what sounds good but you many not know why or how to get the best possible sound for your movies, videos, podcasts or narration. Many people charge for the information I'm providing here for free so put on your listening ears - Sound Speeds!

How To Pick The Right Mic & Why Thick Speaker Cables Are A Scam: Sound Speeds Podcast E4
Hello, first of all, thank you so much for your in-depth review. Your work is amazing and you can tell that you love it. I would like to ask for some help. I am a therapist looking for a really good sound for my therapy sessions (OVER ZOOM or Google Meet, which I imagine will compress the signal a lot). I would like for the mic to be out of the frame. Also, the room is not treated. I am wondering if I should buy the S Mic 3S + an audio interface (I have seen the U-Phoria UMC202HD), if it would be better to get the MKH600 or if you would recommend saving some money and trouble and use the Rode Videomic NTG and not even buying the audio interface. I am sorry, my question is so long. Thank you so much and have a nice day.
There's a lot of things that go into mic recommendations like the acoustics in your recording environment. Shoot me an email and include a picture of the space and I'll see what I can do.
Has this worked for anyone with UA volt 2?
I think it's more of an OS thing than an interface thing.
I appreciate your insights and knowledge buddy. Thanks for the talk!
👍
0:30 - painfully true, idek what gain is and all I'm doing is trying to upgrade my mic(so that my audio doesn't hurt my friend's ears). I'm hearing creators are setting their gain to 4 o'clock or something in their reviews and it's all just so over my head. Like I can't tell you the difference between a Shure SM7B & a Shure MV7X outside of the price tag & my budget really wants me to be able to explain a 200$ price difference before dropping 400$. So thanks for the video, Allen, it's been a great jumping off point.
Sure thing. Thanks for watching.
Amazing review. Wondering what scanner that is, would love to add a RFI/EMI emissions detector to my arsenal.
I thought I linked to it in the description...
Do you have any videos on workplace injuries and injury prevention? My dad and grandpa have a history of back problems and I worry that i will get chronic pain
No. Sorry.
Dear Sir, You have officially saved my life꒰՞´•𖥦•̥`՞꒱🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷 Thank You so much!!!!!!!!!
Sure thing. Happy to help.
my bluetooth headphones were making this robotic popping noise and it was the bass boost that was screwing up
Yeah, a lot of virtual sound things need up Windows sound
That was an excellent presentation
Thanks boss
I never get tired of hearing different ways of explaining these properties of recorded digital sound. It comes up more often than I would have thought and I never feel I do it justice. Communicating biological mathematics is hard (for me).
It's not easy but hopefully this helped
Your asides really make something "informative." The little tips that turn something from a "do this" to "why you do this" make all the difference. All those little pieces connect and make the whole thing work properly. Thanks for that!
I'm glad to hear it. Thank you for watching.
Earned a sub.. way too easy, my ears have been bleeding with hiss for weeks.. problem solved. Thank you. 👍👍
Awesome. Glad to help
when i was watching this vid even tho i had my volume below 37 it was still making the sound and idk how to fix it when im at 38 it dose the thing and it shows me that microphone is doing it.
"The thing"?
@@SoundSpeeds the annoying noise of it making a weird sound.
If this doesn't fix it, I'm not sure. Sorry.
Since its “hip hop” music, i’m curious to know what the lyrics say. Are the appropriate for children?
I haven't heard anting explicit nor is there a warning on the packaging
Well, what were the results?? Bogus.
All real
That's a great review! Does it have better audio quality than the Sennheiser EW-DP kits it competes with?
Comparable
I had the same problem, but after I went into sound theme and muted most of them, all annoying "continues non-stop clicking sounds" are gone forever
Awesome
Hi, is it ok to use it in live singing performance in a club or something?
I guess you could but it's not designed for that and there's better things to use in b those situations
What do you recommend? For simillar budget With thoses rich features? @@SoundSpeeds
That's not my specialty so I don't know
ay man u saved me 🔥🔥🔥
Happy to help
I just got my first gaming pc. And I also got a Bluetooth Logitech Z407 speaker set, which I thought was the main problem of my crackling and popping etc. but you are a lifesaver you were absolutely correct. I just clicked on my device manager and disable everything that I didn’t need except for the logitech Z407. and low in freaking behold!, it worked🥹🙏🏾 #ThanxBro
Well i genuinely thought you were going to roast me for this video… I guess I’ll have to try harder 😂 Also: “we are sound people we don’t have sex” 😂😂😂
Try harder and you may succeed. Yep.
You are a starman
😎
I think the only thing that he might want to change is that if he is trying to pack light for a small plane into the Alaskan wilderness, the compact yet powerful EV 643 shotgun is the mic he needs to take.
Jake needs this to be his main mic!!!
Hell to the no. Voice to skull technology. Any long term testing on the effects of this? I'm guessing no. A spoonful of sugar helps the brainwashing go down.
Bone conductive hearing has been around for a long time. It doesn't do anything to you.
Luckily that wasn’t my psu 😂
👍
Seems like you might have roasted yourself when your clip turned up? Maybe that was the deal? 🤔
I don't know what you mean
Haha. After those first few seconds of the video 1:20 , I wanted to say in the "Ahrnold" voice: "Who's your daddy, and what does he do?"
Ha!
Wow! A "reaction" video of something you HAVEN'T already seen? In the current content climate, that is a risky and novel approach. It's refreshing.
All of NY reaction videos are something I haven't seen before or haven't seen in such a long time I forgot
I just use hair ties instead of bongo ties.
The ones with the two balls on them? Yeah, those are the over the counter/in a pinch option.
Best line ever- "We are sound people, We don't have sex." 😂
The line works. Normally I word it "We're sound people. Nobody wants to have sex with us."
Good reaction video. Thanks! 👍🏼
Sure thing. Thanks for watching.
my issue showed up after plugging my audio rig back in after doing a live show. I plugged a different cable in to my mixer than what was there before, and noticed i had it crossed right over the power cord. i put the better cable into the mixer and moved it away from the power cord and haven't hard a pop since.
👍
Yes, Finally! I have been dealing with this for a almost 2 yrs now. It was driving me up a wall to find a solution that worked after troubleshooting time and time again.
Awesome. Well done.
Hey, this Is a great review! I'm just wondering what desktop microphone stand would go with this. Thanks
Pretty much any
If portability is not a concern, will this be a better gadget than inline preamps like FetHead and Cloudlifter? with higher and cleaner gain? - Looking for an option to bump up my mic interface + dynamic mic instead of upgrading the interface, which is an expensive affair.
I'm a bigger fan of devices such as this personally but then... I'm a much bigger fan to spend the money on a better interface with the amount of clean gain you want. I love the SSL 2+ personally.
@@SoundSpeeds Thank you. Love your vids.
Thank you
Thank you
Sure thing
OH MY GOD! I think you fixed it!!!! Also, why is there like 6 different sound drivers/devices xD!!! But THANK YOU! (For now lol, I don't want to be to optimistic lol)
Awesome. Well done.
mine has a buzzing\electricity sound whenever i boot up any type of game like in menus but the buzzing sound disappears whenever there's sound made in the game like ambient sounds , but no sound whatsoever when i use chrome... any idea how to fix this?
No. Sorry.
Thanks Allen for another awesomeness content 😎
Thanks for watching it
@@SoundSpeeds I know you’ll be back to what you love to do SOON👊
I really hope so.
That is a great review. Many good shotgun microphones are in the US$300-$400 price range. How does the Deity Microphones S-Mic 3 ($399) compare to the Sennheiser MKH 600 ($290)?
I'm not sure. I don't have a 600 to compare it to.
yes ,its work thanks sir i
👍
Fascinating stuff. Thanks for sharing :)
Sure thing. Thanks for watching
I obviously don't run a studio, but I will tell you if you are making an ultra low budget film, California charges a ridiculously high fee for a simple limited liability company (LLC), $800 per calender year. An LLC's main advantage is liability protection, i.e. your personal assets are not at risk for something terrible goes wrong (like hiring Alec Baldwin to do a western). But if your budget is $8,000, the LLC is already 10% of your budget. So obviously, you don't want to do two separate calender years, as that would cost you $1,600. The studios probably look at similar costs as well. Sorry you're not working. How terrible!
That seems like a tiny amount compared to the budget of a feature
@@SoundSpeeds lol. Not my films! Sacramento has really a miniscule industry. It's possible to break even on a film by careful distribution, but most talent flows down the valley and ends up in LA. I did a short which was well received. I priced out doing a feature, and it came to $100,000. Lol. I don't have $100,000 laying around.
Me neither. I hear ya
hey i need help opening my device manager it says the snap in below refernced in this document has been restricted by policy contact your adminstrator for details. Device Manager then when clicking ok it says the mmc cannot create the snap in because of current user policies
👍
@@SoundSpeeds anything you could do? solutions or a video I need this to fix the crackling audio sound that happens when i play my games as i watched your previous video on using device manager to disable other audio etc
No idea. Sorry
Sample rate calculations put me in a world of hertz.
👍
I'm guilty of being one of those mixers who don't want to change Mic mid scene, unless it's unavoidable and if i do they need to be compatible such as MKH50 and MKH60
Yeah, that's a common way of thinking. Not wrong, not right... depends on the mixer.
simple solution: dont use windows 10
🤷
Ouch. Man, ouch.
?
@@SoundSpeeds About the work situation for all the pros out there.
Ugh. Good one
If anyone is reading this, and you're going through pages and forums and every UA-cam video known to man cus you're having game lag or stuttering issues. I just disabled razer HD audio and it seemed to help me, after years of suffering it was always razer
