Under $50 is for fun ,i had one gaming headset mic was great only on this gaming headset I tried (name:LS10x) it’s $30-40$ you won’t believe how it sounds and my room was untreated I still have it never lettin it go my monogami xlr cord is $65 tho I moved on to bigger things xlr mics and stuff evo 4 .that headset did wonders no orther headset i tried was better (aux in phone-bandlab)I use Fl now tho.
I think you should honestly make this a monthly series or a biweekly series. I enjoy your feedback and fun videos like these are a joy to learn from.
I enjoyed making this too...lots of fun. Let me know who wants to have videos like this one more often...and what you'd like me to put in the list!
Yesss!!! 🥳 I’m ready with 🐶
@@SanjayC do make more 😁
I'm so surprised with those two microphones. It wasn't too long ago that you'd have to pay many, many times more than their asking price to get anything even approaching that level of performance.
Totally agree...these small companies are going to run the big mic companies out if they keep this up! :-D
RIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS TOO LETS GOOOOOO
WE LOVE YOU SANJAY C ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks! Merry Christmas Sanjay :)
Thank you so much for the kind Super Thanks, Matt! I really appreciate it. And Merry Christmas to you too! Hope you have a wonderful holiday!
Thanks again Sanjay and Dharti, I so loved this, I really like guitar
Love this as a new series! Excellent deals 😊
Yay! Thank you!
Love the quality and professionalism!
Sanjay!! Happy Thursday my Friend thank you for always finding time in your busy life and schedule to bless our musical hearts! Much love Bro!
Thanks so much for always coming by to say hi. It makes me so happy!
The glowing mic 🎙️ sounded surprisingly good
YEs its really good. Surprised me!
Thank You Sanjay. As usual informative!
Always welcome
Love this video!!! The pets are very entertaining and made me smile. The content is great as usual!! Thank you!
Thanks so much! Love having them around the studio...best part of this video for sure! :D
Loved it!!!
This video is soo sweet! 💚🐶
Fun video. The looper looks fun to play with for basic things. Happy Birthday doggie!
Thank you so much for the Super Thanks, Acee! I hope you get some extra time for music this holiday season! Always appreciate you coming by. Kyoto, the doggie, says hi! :-D
Just in time for Christmas! Thanks, S
You bet! Happy holidays!
What a fun video! Thoroughly enjoyed watching Kyoto. Happy Birthday.
Haha! Glad you enjoyed her antics!
Those headphones (the Audio Technica's, renewed on Amazon) for that price can't be beat. And that looper pedal has piqued my interest. Thanks, Sanjay!
Anytime, Tony. The pedal is a lot of fun...good enough for that price!
I use k72 as my "daily" headphones for work and media and they are awesome. Yes, I do feel the difference when I put Beyers DT770 on, but k72 was like 18 quid.
I use some k52 as my work headphones, they are so comfortable I can wear them all day, and they sound nice and clean too
@@nickjames6323 Perfect for non critical listening and media
I bought my son's first acoustic guitar from Amazon and it totally blew me away! It was completely identical, just a different brand. Good find!
Wow...do you remember what brand you bought?
@@SanjayC Ashthrope. They have a whole line of instruments, too.
the m track solo has been by far the best Investment i have ever made to myself. i do a lot of narration work so it helps massively improve the audio quality in that regard but also because it came with its own audio driver it totally replaced the crap built in sound cards of my laptop
tbf this is probably standard on audio interfaces but the fact that the thing is only 50$ and it does everything you need an audio interface to do!
rock solid absolutely outstanding i love this thing
I've used it on my Mac and its been solid every time. Great $50 interface!
So many bargains there! That MXL mic was unexpectedly good! (I recently bought an AudioTechnica 2020 as an impulse buy and I love it, even though it was more like $150. Good mics don't have to cost a fortune.)
Behringer make a few really small USB mixers, too. People like to rat on Behringer but they do make good stuff.
you sounded good on that MxL mic... I might buy that!
Happy Bday doggie… thanks for the video!
Thank you too! Kyoto says thanks!
Cool video Sanjay ❤️
Thanks ,Vatsal!
Nice compilation of affordable gear in order to make music making more accessible!
I love the Daddario tuners, got one for my guitars, but a different model.
Thanks. Yes, I love the tuner....been awesome ever since I got it!
Hey, another gear vi...OMG HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADORABLE PUPPY! ❤
I have had the Alesis qmini for some months now and whilst it is not my main studio midi controller, it is fantastic for use on the move and/or traveling. As far as I can tell, it is identical except in name, to the M-Audio Keystation Mini32. I can see the looper pedal could be great for laying down ideas quite quickly.
Its identical to the M Audio one.
Yes it is the same as the M-Audio. They are both part of InMusic along with Air and Akai so I guess that explains it.
You guys are quick to comment!!! Love to see this support for the bro!!!
Lalo! What's up! Love how early you are!
@@SanjayC I’m great my friend! Just enjoying the content!
Hey Sanjay, I was a little surprised that you weren’t giving out treats on the studio desk 😂 The MXL sounded surprisingly good! Pushing it through a budget interface nonetheless
Lol…no treats on my main desk! Haha!
Didn't expect to be here this early. Now that my comment will be seen a little earlier. Hi Sanjay, I gotta say; Love what your doing. Every time you post I'm bursting with joy, because I know the video's gonna be good. Hope to see you, Dharti and your dog a lot more times. Also, happy birthday Kyoto/Kioto (if it's even spelled right?) She's a very good girl.
Hi Jaedy..thanks for your kind comment. I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos. Kyoto says, "Thank you!" for the birthday wishes!
I'm trying to enjoy this video but my attention goes onto your dog everytime. What a good boy!
I like those little leave-on D'Addario tuners - I have two of 'em - but I wish they were just a hair smaller so they fit better.
Ma boy Sanjay C clean wit it again
Thanks Ezekiel!
Sanjay you should definitely test out the performance on the fifine line of xlr microphones because I want to hear how they sound vocally
Right here buddy ruclips.net/video/S-ISB29Vr9o/видео.html
Hi Sanjay. I am looking to buy a midi and was wondering which one to get. I’m stuck between the akai mpk mini plus, or the arturia minilab 3. Which one do you think is better?
Happy Birthday to Kyoto! 🎂
In your professional opinion with sound being the most important feature, which is better? The M-Audio AIR 192|6 or The Native Instruments Komplete 2
Hi Sanjay, Please make a video for comparing Arturia minilab 3 and akai mpk 3. Confused which one to go for as a beginner.
I have Sennheiser 280 pro hd headphones which i use for reference but i mainly mix on my Presonus eris E8 monitors. Out of these two headphones that you showed, with which should i go for? I feel that the bass is not that precise in Sennheiser hd 280 pro but i don’t want the bass to be overpowering in headphones as it does in consumer grade headphones. I want a balanced bass in my 2nd pair of reference headphones. Kindly suggest one.
Hey Sanjay! I just recently got a launchpad x and i was thinking of getting a synth or maybe upgrading my midi keyboard to a 49 key one, could you make an updated video on midi keyboard reccomendations? Or maybe a video on beginners guide to choosing synth?
Thanks man! Have always loved your contents!!
If you want more of a Groovebox (with rhythm/drum section), I’d recommend Roland JD-Xi (it also has vocoder and lots of other fun options), or Roland SH-4d (just got mine and absolutely love it)! If you are more focused on playing keys I’d prob recommend the ASM Hydrasynth Explorer or the MiniFreak/MicroFreak. All of them have great sound, are fairly easy and extremely fun to use, come in at a fair price point for what you get, and all (except maybe the Mini and MicroFreaks) are fully portable and can be powered by batteries or external power pack). Just my humble opinion and two cents. I’m fairly new to Synths, myself. Instant fun, and helps me learn and understand music and sound, and really helps me come up with things I probably wouldn’t, otherwise. Hope this helps and I hope you love whatever you get. As far as midi keyboards, it really depends what you want to use it for, use it with (DAWs, other hardware, etc…), what size you need for studio or portability, and how much you want to spend. I’m partial to Akai’s drum pads, Arturia’s keys, and like Novation for their integration with DAWs and hardware (although, other companies are starting to catch up in that department). Lot’s of awesome options out there. I will say, I absolutely love my previously mentioned Roland Synths/grooveboxes! And I hope to get a Hydrasynth Explorer and/or Mini/MicroFreak in the near future, as well… But I might just get another SH-4d… 😜
Love the consistency, and I would really love to speak to you personally because I would love to purchase products online but I find it difficult I need your help
I'm not a Sweatwater affiliate but its them which you should ask questions about musical gear as they have a dedicated team on the phone who job it is to do so. Sanjay and Dorothy run the channel and dont have ability or time to answer every single persons question.
Your partner is so entertaining! Love her in the videos.
Thx
has anyone else noticed the placements of the wheels are … on point
Was the MXL990 on some kind of Black Friday deal when you got it for under $50? On Amazon UK it is now £96 which is well beyond $100
Hi, what are your thoughts on the Edifiers MR4, thanks
been building a cheap home studio, i have a pair of 250 ohm 990 pros. since i wouldnt be using them for mixing i think the akgs might be great for the price to us as an in booth monitor. 36 buck decent quality for recording purposes sounds pretty great
You can absolutely use those 990s for mixing though, why not?
can you make a review about the teyun Q-24 and teyun Q-16 and some cheap Chinese mic like BM800
Hi Sanjay. I appreciate your sharing. Now, were these midi keyboards under USD50 just for that moment or upto now we have some below 50 USD? Am looking for a better midi keyboard, please advise
That Alesis is a copy of the M Audio Key station 32 they are identicall
The Alesis keyboard looks exactly like the M-Audio Keystation mini 32
Could you tell me what mixer u would recommend inside?
Well, I‘d probably buy none of these products, but nevertheless it was very worth watching this video for 2 reasons:
An extremely good song, your super voice (hearing when testing the microphones)
and
This incredibly lovely doggy.
Great. Thank you!
That's it! Kyoto will be my new co-anchor for Sanjay C News!
@@SanjayC Love it!!! Love my puppers! 👊🧡👍
I need that artist pillow in the background
In my MERCH store! :-) sanjay-c.creator-spring.com/listing/creators-june-2020?product=585
I really appreciate your reviews. My 9 y/o son has a growing interest in music, especially electronic music, that I would like to support. I'd like to get him set up using is iPad to start learning piano and basic electronic music creation skills, and I'm interested to learn alongside him.
I'm curious to hear your thoughts on a good USB midi keyboard for the iPad, ideally with pads, and what iOS app(s) you would recommend for a beginner to learn piano and to start learning how to create music. From one of your other videos I was looking at:
- Arturia Minilab 3
- Akai MPK Mini or Mini Plus
- Novation Launchkey Mini
- Nektar Impact LX Mini
- M-Audio Oxygen Pro Mini
As a beginner it's hard to differentiate them. I do know that I'd prefer him to have physical controls over having to go onscreen, where applicable.
Again, thank you!
Arturia Minilab is an excellent choice. I can't comment on iOS compatibility because I haven't tested all those with iOS. But I highly recommend GarageBand to learn how to create music on an iPad. You can do so much with it! And its easy to understand.
@@SanjayC I can't thank you enough for your reply. Thank you so much for your thoughts. Your videos are great. I've watched a few dozen today already!
The Midi Keyboard appears to be a rip of the M-Audio Keystation Mini 32. Is Alesis a sister brand under the In Music/Numark brands?
Thanks for the reviews, Sanjay. What is the mic stand you are using? It looks nice and stable for a desk set up.
I think then one I used in this video is the Amazon Basics one. I have the Gatorworks one as well and prefer that by the way.
@@SanjayC Thanks! I'll check the Gatorworks one out.
Okay I loved your channel before hand but the pets just threw it into overdrive
Haha! Kyoto is already hanging out in my studio waiting for more treats...maybe you'll see more of her! :-D
@@SanjayC would love to!
Thanks for the quality content! (I’m so early lol)
Hey Ghostplayer! How are you?
@@SanjayC Doing good! Finishing up my second semester at college :)
Nice!! Get it done and you'll be so happy!
Hi Sanjay! I’m turning twelve on the first and I’m getting the m-audio key station mini mk3 and the m-audio m track solo interface. I’ve got a sennheiser e835 mic and a JBL EON 1 compact monitor speaker. What do you think? My name is Arnav Btw
Hi Arnav! So happy that you're producing music! I think you've got a good selection of gear there. I haven't tried the JBL EON 1 speakers, but don't worry too much about getting the perfect gear right now. Just get what you can afford and start making music. You can always upgrade later. By the way, I started producing with an M-Audio keyboard as well. I really like the Keystation too! Best of luck with your music journey!! MTMYL!
#SanjayC Kyoto, definitely, stole the show!!! 😅 I love her so much! 😍 I want to see Rome the more time on camera!! 😄
Bro sanjay I really do need help to this problem of midi controller. I have this Oxygen pro mini, 1.) I can't record when I press the record button from midi and I need to press all along just to record, 2.) When I press the keys, some keys trigger the record and play also the midi arrangement, i don't know what just happened even I set it to ableton daw preset, it's really irritating. Need help to all and thanks in advance.
11:17 come on Sanjay, couldn't you both wait a little bit more? Hahaha
did not expect him to start singing
I own the K72. I wouldn’t mix with them, but they are comfortable for big-eared and big-headed folk like myself. I keep several of the sibling K52s for guests for that reason. Skip the mixer. It’s trash.
Superlux HD660 Pro headphones
I picked up the MAudio Solo interface to use with my ipad for a little travel set tup, and it's really impressive for the price. MAudio comes through once again!
That Alesis keyboard is the same as the M audio one.
У мене нвушники Superlux HD660, міді клавіатура Korg nanokey2 , аудіоінтерфейс - Komplete audio 2 , гітара Cort AD 810 з пьезоакустичним датчиком. Ще потрібна бас-гітара)
Haha! This is brilliant!
Thank you ;-)
Damn I missed being the first person to comment. Anyways! Great and very helpful video for people with a limited budget. Great work 😁
Oh! That Alesis Q mini seems nice... I was about to buy Arturia's Microlab 🤔 Now what?
Good day San jay I love to see reviews because it’s a pro and con display before you get the real thing I was just wondering if it is possible to talk to you personally because I think if I email you it will be difficult to get the attention because your a very busy person… I would really love to talk to you because I had difficulty purchasing online
The list of gadgets is nice to have, but M-Audio interface has latency, yet you still recommend it?
Yes, because it has direct monitoring, so no issue with recording in time with your DAW when you use it. For the price...it works well!
@@SanjayC, OK I got it. Thanks for reply.
what piano plugin were you using?
I was using the stock Ableton piano - Upright Piano
Glowing mic today in Amazon Spain: 143 € (neasraly the same as $) Bummer! Fantastic vídeo though.
The Alesis Q mini looks exactly like the M-Audio Keystation Mini 32
I say get the Alesis - cheaper!! :-D
@@SanjayC true!
Bought Recording Unhinged book by Sylvia Massy. Great buy under 50$
MXL 770 or 990???
They both sound excellent! Buy the one that's cheaper for you
Can I get the midi 🥺
The mxl led microphone is well over 50 bucks now ;(
After doing research M Audio Fast Track Solo, bad investment.
Too many red lights of death coming on. Also, after people getting interface replaced, weeks later, red lights of death come on & manufacturer not responding back 😬.
Not worth it, get a different interface.
I need to start give me those links
Glarry has some good electric guitar for around 50$
1:42 Thought i was getting rickrolled for a sec there
LOL! I didn't even notice that when I played it! Nice catch
Same for me, but he changed the chord.
Uhhh, Dharti coming up from under the table 😳
😂😂😂😂
i had the akg k92s and they broke in a year
❤️❤️❤️❤️
You should add timestamps this could definitely help some of your audience to gain time, you made it on 25 gadgets under 50$
Great idea. Just added! Thanks, Mathieu!
@@SanjayC Thanks to you for letting us know all this stuff!
Years ago I used to think that I needed 2 jobs for music gear. now I can sacrifice my Macdonald's for a music gear it's awesome ahah
👍🏼
Lol am listening through the athm20x
Im ashamed of myself... Always watched your videos but wasnt subscribed... Now i am tho!
Hey, thanks so much! :-) Glad you always come by to watch, Maranzano!
Donner c-20 microphone. About 49.99 u.s american from the united states dollars
A Looper pedal for under 50$ is pretty dang impressive...
Yeah it’s amazing what you can get for cheap these days.
hey Sanjay C, I know you did a review on the (OneOdio over ear headphones). but do you think you can do a review on the (OneOdio A71 HI-Res studio recording headphones), please??? it is saying that it's for Professionally Monitoring and Mixing, wow right. so, can you do a review on them??? i found them on amazon btw :)
11:17 lmao💀💀
Can I give you a 2 day crash course on guitar playing?
Sure!
@@SanjayC I'm serious if you are, too.
The problem I've found with budget guitars is that they won't stay in tune very long!
I'm going to test the guitar a week from now again and I'll let you know how it is.
@@SanjayC Got your email and will reply with an update. Thanks again for your time!
the guitar I would definitely pass
MXL 990 Blaze Microphone = 174€ far from the
As a guitarist, I'm gonna be honest the guitar sounded awful and would get out of tune pretty quick. I suggest buying a used one for a bit more if you're a beginner or mainly play a different instrument
