I admire your spunk. It’s refreshing to find a review that’s not just repeating the manufacturer’s verbiage and is willing to point out the shortcomings of products. Have a wonderful new year.
The beacn studio review is when I found you and subscribed. The downward expander is the only reason I was looking at it. Because of your video I realized I could achieve similar results with a stream deck plus and wavelink.
I was interested in the beacon studio, and am even fine with the secret noise gate, but the review made me dig a little deeper and I've found a lot of people complaining about experiencing issues after every update, and a few either faulty devices or ones that have stopped working not long after getting it. If everything worked as advertised, and there was less complaints about build quality and bugs after updates, I would get it. But now planning to get the RØDECaster Duo instead.
If the Zoom essentials had been a small spec downgrade but a big UI upgrade from the old models, portending upgraded full models as well, that might have been fair enough. But nope. Happy New Year
I was looking for the Lupit conversation in this vid lol :D That was a heated situation that luckily ended amicably. But it did get heated rofl and was quite memorable.
Nah...we hashed it out...or at least I believe we did. I apologized for being a dick...and he did as well No reason to rehash when it was dealt with like adults...
The only reviewer worth watching is a honest one. I found you from the Beacn review and subscribed because you talked about its problems when no one else really was.
I watched many, many reviews of the Beacn products, including all of yours, before purchasing one. I decided to try a Beacn Mic and Mix Create anyway ONLY because I really wanted to use their software with 4 different sub-mixes. I was extremely disappointed in the sound of the microphone, even after EQ, and returned both products. It was a huge downgrade from an AT2040 USB, and nobody likes that mic either.
@@DarkCornerStudiosI actually got the Rodecaster Duo first but saw your video on the Mackie and tried it.. I found it better than the Rode so sold the Rode mate!
Stop telling the truth, man! People don't like it. Funny, I remember when that Beacon interface came out and HH was so enthusiastic about I was like, "Yeah, I don't think so." The danger of all these Johnny-come-lately products is they aren't really audio companies with long hoistories. They (most likely) don't develop their products, but instead buy pff-the-shelf parts and put them in a bespoke housing. Anyway, keep giving 'em hell.
A marketing professional told me that controversy got attention. Of course we know where that goes... a lot of RUclips. You're far to reasonable to be controversial! May 2025 be good to you, particularly in July I emphasize as I check out my controversial chrystal ball. Yes just one, like Hitler. 😂🎉

Oh cool
It is always interesting to hear how people find my content.
Good to know and cheers for sticking around!!
@@DarkCornerStudioshey do a video on your broadcasting background, I think it would be interesting content for your regular viewers

most audio products over-promises so much these days, we need to expose the shortcomings of these trash products. It's our duty.
With everyone having different set ups. Could there be a way you make a video on set ups and microphone set ups? Or at least a playlist?

Looked at other Zoom essential reviews.. You are right on with lambaisting the crap out of zoom for this new stuff

Aw thanks for the kind words
Stand your ground. To hell with complainers that live in their parent's basement.
Awesome video! And have you seen the yellowtec Mika table stand?
Yes!
It is awesome!!
Need to get one for review

Shame
Sorry to hear
That Beacn product is so crap I literally smashed it and threw it away. Now I use the Mackie DLZ Creator XS 😂
hell of an upgrade

"It replaced the SM7B for me" Ugh.
