as expensive as this mic is, its honestly worth it. you could buy this mic for 279 or buy a sm7b for 400 then buy a amp for another couple hundred dollars. and personally i think the beacn mic is a genuine competitor with the sm7b even tho its usb and way cheaper. im definitely considering getting this mic in the future
100% agree. For all the features you get packed into it, I think it's accurately priced. And who knows what else it could do in the future with more updates!
@@WillH_Tv We got some dick riders here boys 🤣 The mic sounds fantastic. As someone who has been using it for months now. It sounds fantastic for what it is
You’re content is amazing, great quality, engaging, and informative. I’m blown away you haven’t hit big yet with viewers and subscribers, keep up the great work! Subscribed and excited for new content in the future!
I honestly thought this mic sounded like mud until I watched your review. You've made it sound the best by far out of the 5 reviews I've watched. Now I might have to actually buy this mic
I am new to the channel and quite frankly...am BLOWN AWAY at your content quality. Great editing, great video and audio quality, great composure on-screen. You have a new supporter in Michigan my friend! Btw: I AM an audio engineer, and Neumann is pronounced "NOY-MANN". But I hear "NEW-MANN" all the time, so I think you have nothing to worry about.
YO MICHIGAN GANG LETS GOOOOOOOO #313 :) Im near Detroit! DANG IT I KNEW I PRONOUNCED IT WRONG lol. So you being an audio engineer, knowing this is a new age USB mic and seeing the DSP and what kind of control you have over the mic chain, what do you think?
@@Naaackers Me and the Mrs are on the #ThirdCoast, aka The Little Slice Of Heaven If God Himself Was Dutch, aka Holland. To the important issues: I was very impressed with the mic. I used to be a USB mic hater/XLR mic purest, but I think this is the mic that will change that around for me. I was underwhelmed, to say the least, when our good friend Harris Heller at Alpha Gaming reviewed it. Maybe he didn't tweak the EQ enough or didn't have enough time with processing channels enough because YOUR end result sounded more like a properly EQ'd XLR mic than I had heard before. Plus loading ALL the DSP onto the mic itself instead of bogging down the host PC was such a smart move by Beacn. Not to mention the built in premium headphone amplifier and routing table functionality with just the mic...definitely the best USB mic out there! As a former streamer and content creator, I am always on the lookout for gear that makes the signal chain streamlined...and this mic paired with the Mix Create really makes me want to get back into streaming!
Fantastic review my dude. Loved the humour, also you have a pog setup. One thing to mention that *issue* with your IEM's you mentioned, I believe there is an IEM mode to change in the headphone section of those BEACN software, believe I caught a glimpse is Epos's review. Another thing IF that isn't the case, the Hissing sound your experiencing is mostly likely not an EMI issue, IEMS are just really sensitive to amplifier noise, more so then headphones. Anyways, great review dude!
You are correct! I had failed to update to the latest version before recording the tutorial, and they had added an IEM mode in that update. I missed out! hahah. I have been able to remove the ground loop isolator using the IEM mode now. That's really good to know regarding the amp noise, i didn't know that. Thank you!
Epos and I has two completely different experiences with the Beacn products. I think they should both be considered and not compared. These gen1 devices are not perfect and have a LOT of room for improvement. I agree with some points he made, and disagree with others. We tackle things differently.
I feel you. Trying to stay informed in the streaming/tech world can be really difficult, because you're readying and watching so many different people review the same products. And even if the majority of the reviewers are leaning one way, you could still go the opposite and have a great experience. Whats important to you with a mic might not be the most important for someone else. It's been well over a year, and this microphone is still at my dual PC setup. The software can bug out sometimes, but I love the mic, it's sound (even though it's not THE BEST), the software, and the functionality. The launch of these products had so much BS around it, and it's really sad because I really believe they are awesome. Can't wait to see what they do next.
@@Naaackers Same, their next mic will probably make those naysayers happier. I would still like to know how to calibrate it better for myself as I'm no sound expert, but hopefully I can get my musician mate round at some point
@@SlightlyWilsonGaming I'm no professional, but general EQ tips for microphones is what I binged the most when I first started. Countless guides around the web that have great info. The most important one is using the EQ to cut out the bad/harsh frequencies first, and then use other bands to boost the good parts of your voice after. Of course the noise suppression is huge and compression another big one. But getting the EQ right first thing sets the stage for the rest of it. Good luck!
Great video man! Just ran into your channel today! Awesome quality, I saw your diy isolation booth! That’s wild! Do you have a video on you making it?!? Thanks!
It’s funny you mention that… I JUST came across the footage I recorded if me making that box haha. Unfortunately it’s all in portrait mode as I meant it to be for tiktok….so it’ll go up there eventually haha. Thank you for stopping by!
I am wondering if I can connect this mic directly to the DSLR camera (I have a Sony A7C). I would like to skip the part where I have to sync the audio and video in post-production. Is it possible?
@@Naaackers me too--I've been struggling with de-essing my s sounds for a while to try and create a more comfortable listening experience and one of my big problems is that in order to do that--I either needed to upgrade to an XLR setup or use all these different softwares that don't always shake hands well with the medium I'm speaking through. This looks like an all in one package that takes care of that. Cant wait.
For what it's worth: I actually like the unprocessed sound more on your voice bc it sounds more natural and more smooth without losing clarity. I'd personally only add a tiny bit of compression (maybe 3.2:1 and a threshold that's not too low) to make sure that the loudest parts aren't way louder than the regular parts, and i'd maybe take out a tiny bit of the boominess. Anyways, really like the video!
Did you happen to hook it up to you Mac? I was wondering if I could set it up on PC and use it on my Mac and pc or maybe even on the Mac running windows in Parallels ? Btw.. love you content and quality. I’ve been binging your videos all afternoon.
Hey J - If you plug it into a mac, it will work as a USB input device, but that's about it. There is no current public build of the software for the microphone, so 95% of the mic's functionality is not accessible. I don't even think that you can adjust the mic's gain, since the preamps control comes from within the software. As far as parallels, I haven't even asked that question as of yet. I know that a mac os client is in the works, but there is no ETA for the team at this time. Also, thank you very much for the compliment < 3
Awesome video! Congrats on getting to work with John.. He such a nice guy, loved how he politely turned me down for this project lol do you stream here or Twitch? Love your intro editing with music.
You can plug in the mic and it will work, but there is no software and you can't control any noise suppression, compression, EQ, etc. etc. Hard to say if that would be a good choice.
this is the mic i was looking for 5 years ago and gave up on ever having last year. Decided to look at the market again and holy shit i cant believe this exists its exactly what i used to think "why the fuck doesnt this exist"! Perfect
I am assuming the sound from the mic is live sound, processed only by the Beacn software...and not further processed by editing software afterwards right? I have noticed that the sound in other reviews are all over the place, and I cant figure out why. Yours sounds by far the best...and I wonder if that's because you are a beta tester and have had a lot more time to mess with the mic and the software to get it sounding just right...whereas others have had 2 weeks or less. Do you know if they changed anything internally since the model they provided you to test? Or are they all the same as the finished released products? Also, I looked down and saw you had under 1000 subs....talk about being boned by the youtube algorithm lol. Your content is great and your editing is hilarious. You earned yourself a sub.
Because I recorded a good portion of this video early on, my EQ settings were quite off and I was having issues. After a few firmware and sfotware updates I was finally able to get everything under control. The only additional EQ I did was raised the output level and added just a tiny bit more low end, around 115hz mark. Everything else done on the mic side. Nothing was changed internally that i know of. I also think I just got really lucky with having a voice that compliments this mic well. Thank you for the compliment on my content, means a lot.
Your edits are sick! Thx for sharing with us. Really appreciated this one as I’m sure many did. Any preference with the color options? I can see that ice cream bar showing itself BUT I LIKE IT. (Be different) Thx again. (How’s the plosive protection in your opinion. Seems like it’s doing a great job)
Good morning Kevin! Personally, a lot of my office is white (because i love the way my RGB reflects off everything in this room) so I had to go for the white periphs. With that said, the black one looks sooooo goooooooooood. I love the way it looks. But not enough to shy away from the white :) I think the Beacn Mic is just okay with plosives. In the beginning, I had a really rough time avoiding plosives even with proper mic etiquette. Then I finally got my gain and EQ dialed in and it's much much better. Thank you for all the kind words
First time seeing the back of the mic in your B roll, all I could think was "The mic is mounted upside down" and that kept repeating in my head the entire video. But, if it was mounted in a boom arm and hanging down with the mount it comes with, it's right side up. It still bothered me some, though. (Also, the mic seems to peak a tiny bit on certain sounds, which means you might need to tweak a setting a little bit. Mostly on hard K sounds.)
So you’re actually correct! The mic was upside down lol. I removed the mic from its metal fork to use a universal shock mount and remounted it upside down. I was so mad when I realized after I shot lol. And thank you for the mic feedback!
As a gamer in China. Beacn doesnt ship their product to here. I have to tell my friend who lives in the US to order it then ship it back to my place. Wut a chaos but finally i ordered it hrs ago and i will watch ur vid to set my mic when it arrive.
Hi thanks for this ! Question when you unplug the mic from the computer does it keep the treatment made on the software? For example if you plus the mic straight to an Osmo pocket 3 ?
Hey there Snooki9 - so while the settings are saved on the mic itself, it requires the software to read the configuration on the mic itself. There is a good chance the Osmo would recognize it as a input device, but it will not have all the settings. I can't say this would be the best choice for that.
So I came from the Vivo mic arm, which i LOVED, but it was bulky and didn't reach very far. I upgraded (or what i thought was an upgrade) to the elgato mic arm LP. I love how low profile it is, and how skinny it is, but it sags, and has no height adjustments. AverMedia just announced a arm that looks amazing, and that will most likely be the one that I am upgrading too. It's pricey, just a warning. However the Elgato NON LP arm is pretty good, and the Blue Compass is a great arm too. Good luck!
I just tested this with my iPad pro (usb c port) and it worked. But you can't use the mic as a playback device, and there is no software. It does work as a recording device. I don't have the lightning camera adapter for my iphone to test, but i would assume it would work as long as the adapter is getting enough power.
You're very welcome dude, all the hardware was sitting in front of me. I just had to plug it in :) I know with iPadOS and iOS, having an external recording and playback device at the same time has always been a pain. You can either have external headphones, or mic, never both. With a traditional Beacn/WinOS setup, you can use the mic as a playback device when it's plugged in. But i just tested that on iPad os and it didn't work. But the realtime voice monitoring did!
Can you? Sure. Should you? Not really. You have two devices that are going to fighting each other because they are similar. They are not the same, but they do similar things. To get the most out of your $500 purchase with the GOXLR, an XLR microphone should be used to really get the most out of the device. Doing anything less, you're kinda wasting your money. if you already have the GoXlr, I can't tell you so spend $300 on a mic that you wont get the full experience out of.
damn droping that ID4 speech like a boss in a beacn mic holy shit that gave me goosebumps just saying and then some blink 182 damn naaackers u know how to move me
The major problem with beacn is that they are not doing international shipping. Only to us. By the time they get international shipping, the competitors would've caught up.
They were shipping internationally up until last week. It wasn't every single country, but a good handful. They had to stop because of issues and are finding a new carrier to pick up on international shipping again.
Yeah I'd still 100% go xlr microphone over the beacn all day. I can build a better microphone for half the price. It's a good mic. But it's not really worth the price at all. It's cool if you like it. But it's not worth the price with the capsule they use. Specs are good mic is shit.
you deserve more recognition, production is definetly up there. Great review
Thank you Faint. Working on that more recognition part :)

"Anyway, let's look at the butthole of this mic"
Kidding aside, this is a great review and I am VERY INTO this mic. My AT2020 has been my go-to since 2015, but it might just be time...
LOLOLOLOL.
Thanks for checking out the video ❤️ please hit me up with questions if you have them!!
In fact
sm7b but USB
I'd say so :)
Jesus fam.
You already had some of the best quality.
But this type of quality makes your previous videos look like you weren't even trying.
AINT THAT THE TRUTH! hahahah. TBH i did try really hard with the videos. I'm glad that it showed.
@@Naaackers Hell yea man. THIS IS YOUR YEAR MY GUY! I always supplying that free gas.
what mic arm do you recommend?
I love the Mackie DB-200 for non-low profile, and the elgato mic arm LP for low profile
What microphone arm you using?
The Elgato Arm LP!
Doesn't he have a mute button?
This mic does not.
The major problem with beacn is that they are not doing international shipping. Only to us.
By the time they get international shipping, the competitors would've caught up.
They were shipping internationally up until last week. It wasn't every single country, but a good handful. They had to stop because of issues and are finding a new carrier to pick up on international shipping again.
*Looks with disgust at my SM7B*
Obviously YT Viewcount is bugged...cause this quality video needs to be on Top of the search. GG Nacks
REMAX WOOOOOOOOOOOO
"IM SORRY"
HEHEHEHEHHEEH
Man that mic is awesome. Too bad shipment is not available to Croatia. :( Would buy it instantly.
Sorry to hear that :( I know they've mentioned that being a small company shipping to every country has been a real struggle.
the butthole of the mic, I actually laughed out loud
hehehehehhe
That software thing is ...just..
BALLER, I KNOW
The Presonus Revelator already exists
I like having options
Yeah I'd still 100% go xlr microphone over the beacn all day. I can build a better microphone for half the price. It's a good mic. But it's not really worth the price at all. It's cool if you like it. But it's not worth the price with the capsule they use. Specs are good mic is shit.
Why isn’t it worth the price?
