I have to be honest, I don't care for the Blue mic you use as your main mic. It's overly bright to my ears. So the comparison to the Temu could not be more dramatic, since it seems to emphasize the lows very much. The Temu has a deeper, warmer tone, but the lows are almost too much. For the price it is extremely good. If I had to choose one, it would be the Temu.

whats the issue with using firewire and the mac in 2011 ? is it not powerful enough / image quality wise ?

does the intensity shuttle works in PC windows 10, mine has thunderbolt but I cannto manage to get it to work :c

Ok. I’m actually pretty impressed. And I own a recording studio.

The TF22 is back up on Temu as of August 13th, 2024

I have a review of a temu lewitt 240 clone and it sounded good too

Wow. I'm impressed with the temu mic

The TEMU microphone sounds good, but the link provided in the description, does not work, or no longer works

It DOES sound good, warm and clean highs.

I bought one and compared it to an audio-techica. at2020 and I too was. blown away by the quality. I also tried to run it down on Temu and elsewhere. but. no go. Will use it again for singing tracks in my song productions. I also used an Antares mic modifier at the input, which allows choices of many mike models... like Neuman's U87 and some tube saturation if you want. Still experimenting with what works best.

Love the timu tf22 Hands Down!!!

The blue sounds overly harsh and sibelant.

I would guess some of these mics come from the same factories in China that make expensive mics for well-known brand names? Maybe even with the same internals. The downside is that you really have no warranty if they break after a year. Whereas buying from somewhere like Gear4Music, Thomann or Bax there is a three year warranty as standard. And in some cases the price difference isn't huge.

Looks to be the same mic as the Monoprice Stage Right Condenser mic. I think the LC500 or LC100. I have a couple I intended to use a donor bodies for building mics because I got them cheaper than I could buy empty bodies. They are... not good but better actually than those horrible AT2020 mics people seem to keep buying for some reason.

It's very noisy and waaaay too bright. It sounds like a shitty headset microphone.

Where is all the compression coming from? Your audio is so hot and crispy it makes it hard to evaluate the sound of either mic.

what the hell this is AMAZING! my friend was right, sax DOES make any music better :O

I just posted a temu tech review of a microphone today. Check it out if you like. It's not horrible

and still awesome in '24

I was wondering why there is a constant hum from my sub until you explained you got a fan running. You really need to get rid of that noise.

You can modify it so that it's very close to the original. There is a "bare cardioid path" mod for it that can be put together on a tight budget. You only need some decent capsule and some transformer like Neutrik, 3u or UTM. In the end you get a professional mic for he price of an Aston. You can also make it cheaper and keep the capsule and only use the circuit. There is a couple components that can be added to shape the response.

shoutout to the ukelele hanging ominously in the darkness

Amazing sounding microphone. I got a similar one from China, it's pretty darn good👍

Very cool 😎

I'm sad that it doesn't work under Ventura due it no longer suppoting the FireWire protocol. It still works great under Monterey.

I just started playing again since 2003

I'm *starting* to build a little cheap, no frills podcasting-ready "home studio" for myself, and I ordered a very similar mic from Temu (I should have it in about 1 more week, giddy with anticipation!) and I admit, I know virtually nothing about interfaces and speakers, you know, all that stuff that makes a flipping studio!! Alas! I am a drummer, and I play an acoustic kit & for *where* it is set up, in a very large, thick brick sanctuary of a church, the drums themselves don't need to be mic'd up apart from the kick drum, which has a Shure Beta 52A kick drum mic in front of it. It was plugged into the small amp that sits behind me. Sadly, the small amp went away along with its owner and I don't know what on earth else I can plug it into if need be. Cheap suggestions? If I picked up a Temu interface or mixer or whatever, DUMB QUESTION, but what program or laptop app supports a USB mic?? Should I get one of the Temu basic mixing boards? I will probably sell the Shure, but I'm not...Shure. It is soldered onto it's base, courtesy of my old bass player. I'm all full of puns today. Thanks in advance!!

Dude, your sound is sooooo low! Please correct it next time. And yes, this device SUCKS!

I recently found one of these, an uher m153, and a reVox High Fidelity at a pawn shop near me and was looking for info. Thanks for the video it was informative.

That style of connector was standard on pretty much most cassette recorders. the switch is used to stop and start the cassette for dictating. It's nice because it breaks the switch onto its own connection ans the mic onto its own connection. I don't know what it is about square microphones they don't make them that much anymore and they look cool. I think a lot of the design stems from them being seen in the early days now everything supposed to be hidden. it Does sound pretty good.

I have one and it’s better than all my 🎤

Are you joking? What a hyped POS. Guess you haven't tried any of the other cheap mics you can get now... there are others in the same price range that sound much for natural

I can't find the mic on timu

still works ?

Just stumbled across your video. I was excited to see this video with anther converter to get to usb-c as I had already made the old duet work with thunderbolt 2 on Macbook pro with the maestro working so already had that dongle. Now I have an iPad Pro that has thunderbolt 3 and they now have Logic Pro for iOS and wondering if it is even possible to to using the duet as an interface for iPad Pro or if I have to get a new one. Would I be missing any quality if it works?

guys, which driver should I use on Catalina?

Dang. They stopped making the knock-off of the U87.

Here’s a cover demo of the Temu U87 with a few pickups using the Behringer C-1U. ruclips.net/video/Z8XCq3eX4CM/видео.html

Hey man I like the video, I love when ppl preserve retro electronics and the knowledge about how it worked and how to use it! Just to be clear you just used the 1/8th inch jack and ignored the other one?

I haven't received the one I bought on Black Friday Special for $20. I look forward to getting it.

Fake won.. Not bad for the price very clear.

Competition has forced even cheap devs to manufacture their gear well. Good demo.

I guess we're paying for subtle differences that are actually worth a lot more in the end of the process. Maybe we shouldn't expect to hear dramatic differences between cheap mics and expensive ones when it's the subtle differences that are the most important.

The sound of my duet firewire is suck when I connect balanced monitors to the duet’s unbalanced output’s. I thought I’m listening really quality sound. But when I tried connect monitors via headphone output it was 9000% difference. Sound from main output like mono and with lowcut filter in comparison of headphone output. Also I hear huge noise when in 44100 mode from headphone jack but not from 48khz. The huge noise is also when I connect’s Apple Studio Display to the macbook. And if you type something or use trackpad/mouse this noise is so annoying… So the quality of the DUET is not so good (( 😢 Next is drivers and maesto which not working with M1. Yes I can make it working if type a few commands in terminal under safe mode when booting mac os. But after each mac update they removes firewire driver again and again…. I got a AU Volt 176 and don’t have now any issues and don’t have this LOUD noise.

yeah for me it sounds really bad but thats just me its so harsh the blue spark sounds way better much thicker not tinny.

Sounds like it has no low end response but for 37 bucks it's really cool

I bought one. It is total junk. Self noise is so high that it sounds like there is a waterfall in the background. It also picks up more room than subject. The pop filter and plastic mic holder total about $3.00 of value. The mic itself is useless except as a prop for a movie. Save your money and buy anything-even a budget AT 2020 before you waste a minute on this embarrassing product.

clicked you're affiliate link and it was $7, haven't even got far enough in the video to hear it but i ordered it. hope it's the same one!

Not bad, but the tell tell sign is the self noise. There's a hum in the Temu mic that disappeared when you switched to the Spark.

as you're recording it sounds like we're hearing both mics at the same time at parts... however the cheap u87 sounds clean, maybe bright, not harsh... but maybe a tad bit hollow... impressive for $30... but not so much when you think about technology and Chinese mass production aka lower production cost
