The Hollyland LARK M1 would be great for streaming VR and making video. I am saving up for a new camera right now so can really afford to get anything else. Winning would allow me to stream VR until I can afford the new camera to make videos. After the camera and wireless mic I am going to get a 3d printer to make some items to help with my muscle disorder. I love your videos on the tire rim showing the fails is nice to show that not everything goes perfect.
Hi Eric! I’ve got some awesome news for you. We went through all comments and decided that you are the winner of the Hollyland LARK M1 microphone! You can send me an email or DM me on Twitter or Instagram to get in touch. Congratulations!
ports are on the back for cable management. It's normally not advised you plug anything into the passthrough unless it's just for power... But you knew that right? Tbh I wouldn't trust a 3d printed stand. Just seems rather r*tarded to spend money on a decent monitor and then make the stand mostly plastic... I mean sure if you are going Aldi Budget like you've gone it makes no difference... But for those of us that use a PC a monitor is more important than speakers.
@@razerow3391 you're entitled to your opinion, but I think you might be missing the whole point of this channel. Additionally, Jon has tested 3D printing materials extensively. He has hung his entire body weight from these "plastic parts."
Honestly stacked monitors setup is underrated. 3x side-by-side is still king for most scenarios, but 2x stacked is the the most useful "specialized" setup for monitor speakers, narrow/busy tables. Add a portable 11.6/13 inch touchscreen monitor on a VESA arm attached to the side of a table and it's a perfect multipurpose setup. Top monitor for "standby/monitoring" tasks Bottom monitor for primary work. Vertical touch monitor for either social or misc tasks.
I like the idea of adding LED's to the base of the monitor stand! Maybe you could add some integration, so they display the current progress of your 3D printers. Do you like the stacked setup? I'm wondering if I should try it as well, to save some desk space.
LOVE the work on this. The RGB, the thought put into it, and even the REALLY nice stainless tube. I like how it is simply over engineered! You have a lot of confidence in the prints though, I dont know if I would trust them, but if it works, it works! NOW TIME FOR MORE RGB! It makes everything faster. I would love that Lav mic, it would help me with better audio, but I do not NEED it. We have a Tascam DR-10L that I use for my main lav audio and it works fine. It should go to someone who needs it! Would love to compare it to the tascam one day though!
I like the way you surprice your self every time a design works. After many years you are still amazed of the 3d parts printed. No one has crazy designs as yours.
My guy im obsessed with your creativity . Im a 20 yr old physics student that wants to work in robotics and mainly prosthetic limbs and your work has been a great inspiration for me !! Thanks a lot !
I’d love to have a wireless lav mice because it would help my videos a lot as a small growing channel. It’s super frustrating having to use wired lavalieres and edit in the audio after the fact. It makes syncing the video audio pretty and time consuming. Also wireless lavalieres that are of good quality are way too expensive for me as a teenager. Love your videos dude they’re so inspiring. Makes me want to modify the crap out of my printers!
I started 3d printing when I was given a second hand monoprice 3P, after some serious mods I had it really dialed in, and got better results than the original owner. Now, I have a Resin also. Add to that my love of tinkering and DIY projects at home and this video really had me hooked. Totally love the idea of making your own monitor stand, can't belive I never thought of that. Now, what does all that have to do with a microphone, well, nothing really. But my daughter is making videos, streaming, and a photographer. I would give this mic to her because honestly she would get so much more out of it than I would. Cheers, and keep these great DIY vids coming.
Altijd leuk om te zien dat een 3d printer niet alleen voor serieuze prints gebruikt word. De monitorstandaard is een leuk voorbeeld, niet omdat het moet maar gewoon omdat het kan. en uiteindelijk is het toch nog handiger dan de standaard versies.
Making monitor stands for the audio monitors, at ear height, properly isolated from resonances, would also free up space on the desktop. Possibly to add a tablet or similar connected to octoprint for monitoring the printing room.
My six year old would love the mic. he has been doing RUclips video's and shorts for a little while now just with his phone and has become good at editing his own video's.
I am digging the monitor stand idea! I have 3 wide, and one above. Having 3 monitors sitting on the desk is annoying, and 3 wide stands are stupid expensive. The 4th is mounted to the wall. This gives me some ideas! I could really use a wireless Lav Mic! My current $20 Sony is always strangling me, or getting yanked out the computer! The ability to connect to a phone, DSLR, and computer opens up lots of options, and the 2nd transmitter would be a huge bonus when one of my kids wants to jump in!
I teach 3D printing at our college and those mics would be a step-up from the old one when I need to record lectures, also that RGB + audio combo is begging to have a synthesizer response, really get the rave vibe going
I really like how customizable and applicable it is. One of the most under utilized areas is the stand so well done. As for the microphone, I plan on using it record my parents and in-laws for my kids. I want them to have some recordings events in their life for my kids.
Very interesting idea, I've also been disappointed at the market options for monitor stands. Flimsy designs, no triangulation... You pay premium for extra adjustability that goes to waste the moment you find your sweet spot for your setup and never move them again. That's why I'd rather design custom 3d printed brackets that are rigid and custom-oriented for your sweet spot. But I'd go for something bulkier than the black ones holding those monitors... Those are definitely not over engineered 😅 The mic looks great, I don't have any wireless mics so I would stop messing with cables any time I want to record some dialog.
I bet you could also mount those speakers or custom speakers to the same stand to free up more desk space. Or maybe some sweet mounts to put them up on the wall? Now that you have all that build area it opens up a lot of options! Thanks for sharing!
Replace the lights with ws2812b ledstrip, and connect an esp8266 to it, put the wled software on it, and connect it to hyperion, that way you have your lights synced to your screen
This is why I like your videos so much! Instead of doing exactly what other 3D printing RUclipsrs are doing, you're doing your own thing. Keep that going! This is real content. That is one sick stand you designed and build! As usual, you also show the problems you encounter and your mistakes. We'd make the same mistakes, or new ones, but we're humans, right? I'd like to win the thing you're giving away just because I'm a greedy bastard. I didn't even know what it was, until you mentioned 'microphone'😂 so I definitely need one. Also, my name is Mike, so ginve me the Mike!
Doing a similar pole mount system for a monitor in my van conversion that will rotate around and face the wall for attachment when driving. I'm using a bicycle seat quick release clamp in the design so that I can move the monitor up and down on the pole as desired.
I'll be honest, never heard of you, was thinking about upgrading my monitor setup and BAM! This video appeared on the suggestion card after the last video I watched. Very cool idea! I'm glad it's stable, and you have my empathy on the short cables, I've taken to just spicing mine together. It's not ideal but it creates less e-waste.
Love that you're using reaper! Hands down my favorite software for audio. That mic would be awesome for when I'm blowing glass! I've been looking for a solution that keeps the mic away from the intense heat of my torch. Looking forward to seeing what you do in the new space!
I am just starting a video blog and could really use a microphone since all I have is the built-in mic in my laptop. It would be great if you posted the files for the stand, and I love listening to you, especially because of your accent.
I found you channel after watching cnc kitchen I do find your content more interesting and the fact that you 3d printing makes real world applications and you give anyone the confidence to try making 3d printed designs, I would love to add the mic to my list of stuff I have be getting to start a RUclips channel about cooking gluten free for people with or without celiac
I love the monitor stand! I currently only have an Ender 3 v2 so I don't quite have the build volume for a good monitor stand like that but I love the idea. I am trying to create a series of RUclips videos on how to program a Lego robot as well as a FRC robot. I bought an onn podcast mic to do the audio but it really isn't the best suited for the work. If you have a suggestion for a free video editor that would be nice. If I end up getting a bigger 3d printer I may very well create a similar stand.
Absolutely LOVE it may have inspired me to make a base under my monitors ive been curious about ports like that for a while definitely going to pick some up !
I just started in filmschool and the LARK would be quite nice to have in my personal toolbox so I don't have to fight the other students over the schools equipment 😁
It's nice to hear people like you don't always think of a 3D printed solution first thing. Sometimes it takes me far too long to realize I can design and print my solutions.
I was looking to 3d print a sleeker vesa stand for my monitor and it's a bit much for my needs, but it's really cool that you can design such a thing. I hope i'll be able to design cool things now that I have a 3d printer. Also the hollyland mic would be very useful for me, I actually wanted to get a new mic that picks up more audio for my meetings since I move around a lot and it would also be useful for when I'm doing PC build streams since that requires a good amount of moving around. I didn't know such mics existed, but I'm very interested now even If I don't win at least I learned something.
Whoa! What a nice build... I'd love to see if that mic is also good at picking up my bass guitar, as well as my crappy voice. The dynamic range in both is out of this world!
Man, you come around the corner with pushing 3D printing to the maximum! Very inspiring, to say the least. The lav mics would be a nice addition (and kick in the butt) to finally start my 3D printing/Additive Manufacturing/Surface engineering podcast & videocast that I've been planning for months. It'll be great for interviews in the industry 🥳
I always love your videos and epic projects and the roller coaster ride of them starting, being excited, something doesnt go to plan, but then overcoming! I have a small youtube channel and could definitely use the mic to up my audio game! I just use whatever camera im usings' mic. Whether its my cell phone, gopro, or old DSLR.
First time to see 2 monitors stacked, rather than side by side. Ingenious! Now in case of an earthquake.... Wouldn't it be good to have like a strap or support attached to your pipe that's bolted to your wall?
Sweet set up. Dual monitors become pretty indispensable when you start using them. The mic seems cool, maybe if I had one I could use it for live streaming and finally retire the PS3 Rockband mic and scissor arm stand combo that I have attached to my bed frame.
One thing that's been preventing me from making videos is the lack of a mic. I live in a small country, and good mics just aren't available here. Sadly, good audio quality is a lot more important than video quality, so it would be very nice to have a good lab mic
Nice! This gives me the faith I needed in printing a replacement stand, current one sticks too far back so my monitors have to overhang the desk. I'd like that mic for recording my upcoming project videos (script stage) since audio quality has always eluded me in previous channel attempts. They do say bad audio is worse to have than poor video quality. Anyway keep it up!
Reason for wanting to win that microphone: I think it would help me a lot in the portability for my interviews I am doing for my study. I have been interviewing people for my study in game design and my current go to daily driver is my HyperX Quadcast. Reason for this is that it has a great omnidirectional pickup pattern. But it is a bit bulky and uses quite some of the space in my backpack. It also requires me to have my laptop with me. The total package becomes even more if I need video for my interview as well. And seeing that this is compatible with Android and my camera makes it possible for me to have high-quality audio and video with just a smartphone.
Thanks for this inspiration on this one! Only, in my implementation, you'll see that I turned things upside down a little bit. Search for ' "a-frame monitor stand" printables'. Note, rather than using SS tubing ... I used some extra I K E A plumbing bits that were around.
i think one addition to an already fantastic and seamless setup would be to have an additional USB on top of the stands base for a usb microphone and another usb run up the centre to another usb panel mount for a webcam plug. other than that, its a fantastic product and would actually like to see something like that come to market. its one of those areas where manufacturers rest on the laurels and don't innovate - only other product ive now seen that comes remotely to what you've created is the new Corsair flexible OLED monitor which has an ok front IO interface. well done :)
The stand looks great an added functionality is just what I would like in future monitor stands, a little bit to flashy with RGB for my taste but that transparent case reminded me of those NES consoles, like in Seth Everman collection :D Another idea for your video are currently boring and partially useless notebook accessory that are cooling stands, at most they have USB 2.0 HUB integrated, merge it with those Thunderbolt dongle accessory with 2.5Gb Ethernet, SD card reader, additional 3.1 USB and display ports, you could even add M.2 connector for fast SSD inside. Anyway Hollyland mics, I could use them to make that cooling stand with my Ender 3, it may be a cool challenge for me to make one. Pretty please :)
Love watching you make all these things. It looks so effortless compared to my struggling just trying to get my printer level or cut a straight line. Would like the mic as I spend my days in online meetings and my previous wireless headset died. I’m currently tethered with a USB mic
Awesome stand! If you make a V2 maybe you can add a speaker you can use as a center channel and maybe a phone stand. I've always ignored the IO on monitors because they're so hard to reach. I've been wanting to get into voice acting and I'm out a lot, So I think a wireless mic I can use with my phone would fit me perfectly.
That's a pretty slick design. I didn't think it was going to support both monitors but that looks like it worked really well! I'd really like the microphone setup as I'm really hoping to start a youtube channel for 3d printing, cnc and maybe some hunting videos as I'm trying to get into that more. Thanks for the awesome content and all the crazy projects you're doing!
That mic would be a great addition to my desk set up that’s still a work in progress… wish I could add an awesome monitor stand like yours to my set up.
I love the idea and the work you've done! As a heavy multidisplay user myself (heheheh, five in fact! 😁 ) this does give me some ideas. I've always chosen to go with either wall mounts or mounts installed at the corner of the table or through the table. Keeps things handy and additionally clean looking. PS. Round aluminium table legs can be used for monitor stands pretty easily. Cheap, sturdy and quite nice looking also. Some even can replace or extend original tubes in monitor stands!
Wicked project. Looks like lots of thought went into the planning of it. I’d love that lapel mic cause my early version Sony NEX has its audio accessories discontinued. :(
My friend has been wanting to take his RUclips channel to the next level recently, and he has been looking for a clip on mic exactly like the LARK M1; If I win this I'm gonna give it to him. I know he would love it.
That is really nice looking. I love that project. My friend and I are starting a RUclips channel. Everything from furniture restoration to guitar building and I’m huge into 3D printing which is how I found you. I really like your setup.
Watching your videos are always a blast and get me inspired to start my own YT Channel, although i probably wouldn't do engineering project like yours, i could never do those things
Now to just figure out how to print that on my ender 3 lol. The lav mic would be an awesome replacement for my old mic that crapped out and I haven't gotten a new one...
I think you need a brace at the top of the mount to the wall .. when you were showing the product with your arm on the table there was movement . Cheers and BEERS!!!
As always, you engineering and content are great. I have 4 monitors all with various brackets. I think I will see what I can engineer with my 3D printer.
I would have added a clamp feature to the back of the base, to clamp or hook it to the table and prevent it from tipping over. Besides of that great work and good to see that I am not the only one who has to iterate designs in order for them to work as intended. I found that the number of iterations always is three. A natural constant as it seems.
Nice video! I also have a similar monitor assembly using printed parts, but I used two aluminum L-profiles to support monitor. A few years ago I started a youtube channel and filmed a lot of material. However, I ran into some audio quality issues. I failed to make a quality voice-over, the voice sounded like a robot. It killed my motivation. The videos are still waiting for their turn, so a new quality microphone would help me to make them.
I always wonder, how many out there, in the oblivion of the Internet and RUclips's algorithms, are such talented creators like owner of this channel. Curious to know all of them.
I would love that mic so i can record audio at a much better quality than the one that with my web cam i cant imagine how much my audio production quality will be improved
I would love to have that microphone because it would help me in my video making for RUclips. I was filming a build series when i was rebuilding a motorcycle and made some custom parts and 3D printed parts, but i realized pretty fast that every clip had so bad sound on it because of the internal microphone on the phone and that took down my mood a little bit. Keep up these good videos. Greetings from Sweden.
Love your clever and elegant design. Great video too. I'm not into the RGB craze that seems to still be going on. I think the lighting would be handy if I need to plug something in, but I would want them off the rest of the time.
If you should be good for your eyes, then you should place the monitors low, near the table. In other words the monitors should be side by side, at the lowest point, and then Bent inward to you, as you ware reading a book. Great design. Fantastic video as always 👍😃
I had subscribed to this channel since the robust Ender 3 pro design video. I always love the approach you take to implement practical printing and showcasing it in such a good manner. If i win the wireless mic i would be using it for my youtube videos. Thanks for the awesome videos. Cheers!
Simple and probably the least interesting of all reasons for wanting the mix is that it would be great for talking from inside a helmet. Properly setup i be heard more clearly.
Well damn, looks like I have a project in my future. On top of the issues this fixes for you, it would also allow me to redesign the stand in such a way that my mouse isn't always hitting it. This damn ultrawide has the most inconvenient leg placement.
The Hollyland LARK M1 would be great for streaming VR and making video. I am saving up for a new camera right now so can really afford to get anything else. Winning would allow me to stream VR until I can afford the new camera to make videos. After the camera and wireless mic I am going to get a 3d printer to make some items to help with my muscle disorder.

Or u can buy a laptop and have all of this stuff I mean;-; but just betta design noice
Having 'teringzooi in de knoop' problems when doing any computer stuff is very relatable
😂
Also, I really like the creative engineering aspects of your videos. Making something to fit your needs is fantastic!
It's what gives 3D printing it's real purpose, it's so rewarding to success on this
9:26 The monitor mount relying on the layer adhesion of that one black section looks a bit sketchy. I hope it 100% infill!

what an incredible setup, with that adaptability you can basiclly have all your IO of all the componets just in front of your keyboard
Get yourself a garolite bed my friend. Petg won't warp off it. I use it on 10 printers without any problem.
Love your vids! Thanks!
First time to see 2 monitors stacked, rather than side by side. Ingenious! Now in case of an earthquake.... Wouldn't it be good to have like a strap or support attached to your pipe that's bolted to your wall?
Why not insert few long screw bolts to reinforce the plastic’s structure ,it will be seems more reliable
Sweet set up. Dual monitors become pretty indispensable when you start using them. The mic seems cool, maybe if I had one I could use it for live streaming and finally retire the PS3 Rockband mic and scissor arm stand combo that I have attached to my bed frame.
One thing that's been preventing me from making videos is the lack of a mic. I live in a small country, and good mics just aren't available here. Sadly, good audio quality is a lot more important than video quality, so it would be very nice to have a good lab mic
Nice! This gives me the faith I needed in printing a replacement stand, current one sticks too far back so my monitors have to overhang the desk. I'd like that mic for recording my upcoming project videos (script stage) since audio quality has always eluded me in previous channel attempts. They do say bad audio is worse to have than poor video quality. Anyway keep it up!
Sweet build! I'm excited to see what you come up with for the custom case. I'm working on a pure custom setup for my new PC build.
You inspire me to get back to what I love doing. Thanks.
Reason for wanting to win that microphone: I think it would help me a lot in the portability for my interviews I am doing for my study.
I have been interviewing people for my study in game design and my current go to daily driver is my HyperX Quadcast. Reason for this is that it has a great omnidirectional pickup pattern. But it is a bit bulky and uses quite some of the space in my backpack. It also requires me to have my laptop with me.
The total package becomes even more if I need video for my interview as well. And seeing that this is compatible with Android and my camera makes it possible for me to have high-quality audio and video with just a smartphone.
yup, 3D design & print at its finest. Innovative as it gets.
Thanks for this inspiration on this one! Only, in my implementation, you'll see that I turned things upside down a little bit. Search for ' "a-frame monitor stand" printables'. Note, rather than using SS tubing ... I used some extra I K E A plumbing bits that were around.
i think one addition to an already fantastic and seamless setup would be to have an additional USB on top of the stands base for a usb microphone and another usb run up the centre to another usb panel mount for a webcam plug. other than that, its a fantastic product and would actually like to see something like that come to market. its one of those areas where manufacturers rest on the laurels and don't innovate - only other product ive now seen that comes remotely to what you've created is the new Corsair flexible OLED monitor which has an ok front IO interface. well done :)
The stand looks great an added functionality is just what I would like in future monitor stands, a little bit to flashy with RGB for my taste but that transparent case reminded me of those NES consoles, like in Seth Everman collection :D Another idea for your video are currently boring and partially useless notebook accessory that are cooling stands, at most they have USB 2.0 HUB integrated, merge it with those Thunderbolt dongle accessory with 2.5Gb Ethernet, SD card reader, additional 3.1 USB and display ports, you could even add M.2 connector for fast SSD inside.
Anyway Hollyland mics, I could use them to make that cooling stand with my Ender 3, it may be a cool challenge for me to make one. Pretty please :)
Love watching you make all these things. It looks so effortless compared to my struggling just trying to get my printer level or cut a straight line.
Would like the mic as I spend my days in online meetings and my previous wireless headset died. I’m currently tethered with a USB mic
Awesome stand! If you make a V2 maybe you can add a speaker you can use as a center channel and maybe a phone stand. I've always ignored the IO on monitors because they're so hard to reach.
I've been wanting to get into voice acting and I'm out a lot, So I think a wireless mic I can use with my phone would fit me perfectly.
That's a pretty slick design. I didn't think it was going to support both monitors but that looks like it worked really well! I'd really like the microphone setup as I'm really hoping to start a youtube channel for 3d printing, cnc and maybe some hunting videos as I'm trying to get into that more. Thanks for the awesome content and all the crazy projects you're doing!
Love the leds and white plastic look. Could use the mics to greatly up my audio game. The Samson go mic doesn't seem to cut it 😆
Awesome to watch a master in his craft. Very impressive!
That mic would be a great addition to my desk set up that’s still a work in progress… wish I could add an awesome monitor stand like yours to my set up.
I love the idea and the work you've done! As a heavy multidisplay user myself (heheheh, five in fact! 😁 ) this does give me some ideas. I've always chosen to go with either wall mounts or mounts installed at the corner of the table or through the table. Keeps things handy and additionally clean looking. PS. Round aluminium table legs can be used for monitor stands pretty easily. Cheap, sturdy and quite nice looking also. Some even can replace or extend original tubes in monitor stands!
Wicked project. Looks like lots of thought went into the planning of it. I’d love that lapel mic cause my early version Sony NEX has its audio accessories discontinued. :(
My friend has been wanting to take his RUclips channel to the next level recently, and he has been looking for a clip on mic exactly like the LARK M1; If I win this I'm gonna give it to him. I know he would love it.
That is really nice looking. I love that project. My friend and I are starting a RUclips channel. Everything from furniture restoration to guitar building and I’m huge into 3D printing which is how I found you. I really like your setup.
Awesome, good luck with your journey!
Watching your videos are always a blast and get me inspired to start my own YT Channel, although i probably wouldn't do engineering project like yours, i could never do those things
I’d love that wireless mic cause I need to step up my audio game for my project videos
Now to just figure out how to print that on my ender 3 lol. The lav mic would be an awesome replacement for my old mic that crapped out and I haven't gotten a new one...
I think you need a brace at the top of the mount to the wall .. when you were showing the product with your arm on the table there was movement . Cheers and BEERS!!!
That is the most dripped out monitor stand! You should include some modularity into the pc case too, might keep thos pesky usb hubs away👀
As always, you engineering and content are great. I have 4 monitors all with various brackets. I think I will see what I can engineer with my 3D printer.
The work louder keyboard would fit this aesthetic perfectly!
Wow, that was a great idea and execution. I wouldn't be able to design it that well but it looks fun to try.
good idea and good execution till the led part. don't you have enough eye strain coming from those monitors ?
I would have added a clamp feature to the back of the base, to clamp or hook it to the table and prevent it from tipping over. Besides of that great work and good to see that I am not the only one who has to iterate designs in order for them to work as intended. I found that the number of iterations always is three. A natural constant as it seems.
Only an earthquake will topple this thing over ;)
Love the stand! You got me thinking of the kick ass presentations I could do with that mic and green screen. The joys of working from home!
Nice video!
I also have a similar monitor assembly using printed parts, but I used two aluminum L-profiles to support monitor.
A few years ago I started a youtube channel and filmed a lot of material. However, I ran into some audio quality issues. I failed to make a quality voice-over, the voice sounded like a robot. It killed my motivation. The videos are still waiting for their turn, so a new quality microphone would help me to make them.
The stand idea looks good, would love the mic to have decent audio for some cinematography work
I always wonder, how many out there, in the oblivion of the Internet and RUclips's algorithms, are such talented creators like owner of this channel. Curious to know all of them.
Looks awesome man, i think you should have incorporated some speakers into it though.
For the advise, I would cut stainless steel anytime instead of aluminium...
A man after my own heart when it comes to audio, and that microphone looks like it'd be really usefell when needing to record your voice hands free!
I would love that mic so i can record audio at a much better quality than the one that with my web cam i cant imagine how much my audio production quality will be improved
I would love to have that microphone because it would help me in my video making for RUclips. I was filming a build series when i was rebuilding a motorcycle and made some custom parts and 3D printed parts, but i realized pretty fast that every clip had so bad sound on it because of the internal microphone on the phone and that took down my mood a little bit.
Keep up these good videos. Greetings from Sweden.
I would love the mic for family videos to capture the conversation and funny memories/inside jokes!
Love your clever and elegant design. Great video too. I'm not into the RGB craze that seems to still be going on. I think the lighting would be handy if I need to plug something in, but I would want them off the rest of the time.
Always interesting to see what solutions you come up with!
If you should be good for your eyes, then you should place the monitors low, near the table. In other words the monitors should be side by side, at the lowest point, and then Bent inward to you, as you ware reading a book.
Great design.
Fantastic video as always 👍😃
I had subscribed to this channel since the robust Ender 3 pro design video. I always love the approach you take to implement practical printing and showcasing it in such a good manner. If i win the wireless mic i would be using it for my youtube videos. Thanks for the awesome videos. Cheers!
Simple and probably the least interesting of all reasons for wanting the mix is that it would be great for talking from inside a helmet. Properly setup i be heard more clearly.
Awesome as ever. I have no need for a mic, give it to a deserving individual that can use it. Thanks as always for sharing! 😎
I start streaming thingsd related to my teaching, so the mic is very helpful!
Well damn, looks like I have a project in my future. On top of the issues this fixes for you, it would also allow me to redesign the stand in such a way that my mouse isn't always hitting it. This damn ultrawide has the most inconvenient leg placement.
Are those Tungsten cubes
Multi monitors are the best productivity hack! Though I like side by side better. Nailed it again!
Yes! One is from aluminum for comparison. I got those for my birthday from my brother.
I want one(lark M1 wireless microphone), because I want one. I will use it for doing stuff and things, and maybe even things and stuff...
