XLR Wireless to Camera Mic in! HACK!

That's great! Quick question, what happens if you plug the mic into a power bank or power adapter? reason why I ask is because I want to see if the RGB stays on when connected to XLR without the need to also plug it to an actual PC. On a future revision I would love to see these types of mics with an internal battery can run the RGB for a couple hours. that would be perfect for podcasts where you need to have multiple mics going into a mixer
100% yes, a power bank or any normal power source works for RGB lighting. Where I test the silence of XLR and have the RGB on I removed the part of the video where I mentioned it is connected to USB on my alarm clock. A Power bank works exactly the same.
Thanks! just ordered one on a lightning deal for 55 bucks. If I like it, I might order another one@@sparkestudio
@@PopoRamos Nice deal 👍. If you like RGB you'll love the RGB light with wireless control and special lighting effects I'll be reviewing. It arrived today.
I made an unlisted community post about the piles of tech items I'll be reviewing. Also a crazy teaser to start with where I power my camera, Tascam, Zoom F3 and my 5.5" monitor off of one battery. Most tech reviewers which are sponsored of course are look at this $1000 battery it can power your setup... The battery I used is about $60 USD. Always so much fun to "break the rules".
Nice, can't wait to check it out! keep doing the great work. I like your channel a lot! Great info!@@sparkestudio
The RGB does not work in XLR mode.
Impressive audio.
I got a Rode PodMic for a bit more, it was on a sale, so got a good deal, but already cheap, but only a bit more than this.
But PodMic does not pick up scratching noise as much but the metal tapping sounds and the arm it will.
It's built for major abuse it seems. Is PD200X too? Is it made of metal or plastic? I see the Maono PD400X looks like a Pod Mic copy at the front at least.
Yep, it is made of metal. Thanks for asking, I literally had to go check right now to know. The body paint has a very slight texture, but I bet someone is going to purposely use that textured body to record their own record player scratch sound effects 😲. Setting up like a Studio mic sounded setup overhead sounded better than expected. I haven't tried the Rod Podmic you speak of, is it also dual USB and XLR?
There are two versions, the PodMic USB has both XLR and USB, and is much pricier, and it comes with a pop filter. Podmic does not, it's only XLR. Also it does not come with an XLR cable. I don't remember if the USB version comes with one. @@sparkestudio
When I use it in voicechats, will the others hear keyboard noise?
Can't believe I missed testing that aspect of this mic. With a mechanical keyboard there is no such thing as zero sound but reduced sound. I ordered the PD400X and when I review I'll compare the sound rejection with a keyboard on both. This is going to reduce keyboard sound a lot if you speak close up to the mic and have the keyboard below.
The most impressive noise rejection I tested so far can be heard in my Fifine AM8T review BUT the USB audio isn't as good as the PD200X and the volume level of the AM8T is low forcing you to speak close to the mic.
@@sparkestudio Don't worry about it. It was also forgotten in all the other reviews of this microphone :D And thank you so much for the additional informations! Oh and btw: in a german review the youtuber was very annoyed about the ground noise. I am not sure if it was just his mic or a problem of the device model
Can you do a video of you editing the audio to make it sound better?
I never edit audio to make it sound any different than it does. The only edit I ever do is removing hiss which I don't do any of that here.
Do you mean a general video to make audio sound better?
If you would be referring to removing hiss and mic self noise I have at least 2 videos but 1 showing multiple methods. On my channel simply click on channel name and go top play list and find "hot Tips"
@@sparkestudiookay yeah thank you
@@reznified8624 The video for cleaning up audio and different methods is here:

I should see about making cheap audio should better one day... Some people do that, I always prefer get good audio and never have to modify after but even the best of wired lavaliers tend to have a "thin sound" if not speaking super close.
Does it work on a ps5?
Sadly I have no clue since I do not have a PS5 to test. This is a USB mic like any other, if a regular USB mic works this should work as well.
Makes me want to get rid of my Blue Yeti
I almost got a Blue Yeti during the really nice boxing day sale but it was too big in size and only USB. I expected less from this mic but got more.
This microphone is not good. No matter what settings I used in XLR Mode which is better than USB, I never got it to sound that good. Always sounded muffled and not crisp. I bought a FiFine K669D and it sounds much better and its half the price !!!
You might of had a defective mic, but as I state in my review USB is the best sound.
I didn't edit the sound and I am not playing music and I didn't even compress or touch any the sound, pure as recorded.
I reviewed the Fifine AM8T just before this which is certainly a higher end mic than the K669D. I Preferred Fifine XLR and I personally was meh on the USB sound.
@@sparkestudio could be defective but I just didn't like the sound of the pd200x. It was so bad I got my old blue snowball mic to sound better in USB. I really wanted to love the Maono but I was disappointed. It's back in the box. Like I said before the K669D is a much better mic.
@@chadsadventures1 tone for your personal voice is a big thing. The fifine AM8 mic had a beautiful deep tone when speaking close and personal with XLR. This Maono is more natural flat tone unless turned with the USB software to Deep or Vintage. I reviewed another Fifine mic it in my playlist sounded identical to the Shure MV7 and it was totally budget but it had a light annoying buzz (an older mic) one of the first few USB mics I reviewed on this channel back around 2020.
