Hi! I was trying to use this code, but it only took 1% off the purchase price (57 cents off of 57 dollars). Do you know what might be going on? Thanks!
Thank you for letting me know, ill ask them what seems to be the issue and get back to you!
@@Nickyo Thanks so much!
it is sold out
I’m proud of you🥰 great video
This is an excellent review! I've just watched a bunch of USB mic reviews and yours is the one that convinced me to get this particular mic. Thank you!!
I appreciate you appreciating the review :) Hope you do enjoy your new mic and let me know what you think about it!
@@Nickyo I love it!! I really needed a mic that didn't require me to do any post-processing and would sound good right out of the box. So far, I'm super happy with it!
@@veronicataylorsfp any chance your still active and have this mic? does it have background noise or is it really clean?
@@harry1069 every mic has background noise…
This is the first review to mention that its plug and play. I've been watching so many videos to try to find this out! You'd think more people would include this in their videos!
great video! I stream a lot and I always use a headset removable mic, but this is great! Very good review video
Thank you for this review! I just bought the mic yesterday and it'll be arriving in a couple days. I'll share my thoughts here once i get my hands on it. thank you!!
Has it arrived yet? Let me know your thoughts! 😬
@@Nickyo it arrived yesterday! Okay, well... the microphone's build is sturdy and it certainly looks professional. the audio is crisp and clear but it sounds slightly flat - and it needs some post-processing to make it sound special. I used it in my zoom classes yesterday and asked one of my friends what I sounded like. She said my mic sounded "heavenly, but i could hear a bunch of background noise." lol so anyways, it's totally worth it - for the price that is - and im glad i chose it. thank you once again for your video! have a wonderful day friend :)
Highly recommend you lower the gain and bring it closer to your mouth since its a cardioid mic rather than a dynamic mic! Glad your enjoying it!
Hi can you tell me if its working fine cause I want this for my birthday so just want to make sure
Glad you like the mic! Thank you so much for making this great review!👍😊
Just purchased this for an on the go mic for audio recording. Thanks for the video man this is exactly what I was looking for
How is it bro?
@@yourlocalbrokegamer9678 for the price, solid asf.
nice review bro
Thanks man havn’t seen you in a while but we’re working hard :)
Nice video, like. Can you advise if the audio output jack will help to take calls or listen to person on other side of zoom call?
It depends. If you use K683A with your phone, sorry that you can't record and hear other person at the same time. If you use K683A on your computer, please plug the headphone into the 3.5mm headphone port, choose the K683A as default output without enabling the monitoring feature on the computer system or software, you will just hear the system sound.
great video! thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Merhaba, inceleme icin teşekkürler. Ben bas sese sahibim bu mikrofon sesimi doğru ve guzel şekilde aktarir mi? Podcast , seslendirme icin kullanacağım.
I would like to know what mic u are using to record the current video
Hello, if I plugin my headset to the microphone to listen to myself, will I still be able to hear my games and discord?
Hey man! I was wondering what dynamic mic you would recommend (200$ budget) for gaming. I tried the AKG D5 but i felt it didnt have the presence i needed or wanted... My voice is kinda bassy and dark in a way? Cheers!
I stand by the rode procaster as being the best dynamic mic at around 200$. Considering you dont need a cloudlifter like you would most mics. It is an xlr mic so you would need an interface. For a complete setup a rode podmic and a scarlett solo would be within budget however some eq would be useful for your type of voice. You could also try out the Shure MV7 which ive seen has had a lot of success lately. It also depends on what youll be doing! Hope this helps and let me know if you have any more questions 😬
@@Nickyo hi! I already do have an interface and a mic preamp! My voice is kinda hoarse too.. hard to explain heh.. but yea ill look up the procaster for sure
@@Nickyo Hm maybe saying my voice is bassy is wrong... its kinda semi bassy but kinda hoarse too? its weird man... i need something that is clear and sounds clean :(
Did you ever decide on a mic?
@@Nickyo yeah i just kept my akg d5.. I changed some EQ settings and just made it sound a bit more normal? Still enjoy it and might just save up for one of thoose EV models🤭
How does it compare with Fifine K678 (as the prices of latter just dropped)?
Hello I love this video and mic and can you please tell me how well the mic is working currently since its been 1 year since you have had it it would be really good if you would tell me
Its working the same as a year ago when I posted! Ive also managed to dial it with vsts so it sounds even better!
@@Nickyo thankyou I will purchase it
Hey would you suggest this or the hyperx quadcast? Only thing i have with the quadcast is its stuck at red rgb and i wont pay another 60 for rgb lol
Honestly, I’ve used the original quadcast which is basically the RGB one sans the RGB and I prefer the fifine over it. They just made an amazing mic for a very low price!
Do you know any inexpensive boom arms that will work with this mic? I’m trying to get a decent inexpensive streaming setup :)
Most of them do! I would go with something like tonor or neewer which are about 30$!
@@Nickyo Thank you so much! Just ordered the mic and the arm, thank you for the review, was very helpful!
K683A is suitable for the Boom arm stand which comes with the 3/8'' to 5/8'' adapter. And you can easily search for it on Amazon.
But you can directly purchase the T683 including the boom arm stand, pop filter, C clamp, etc.
Thanks
Man can anyone suggest a boom arm for this? One that isn’t over priced or from the fifine website seeing as they’re taking weeks to ship.
I cant in good faith recommend my own since its so expensive. Buuuuuuuuut budget options like the Tonor and Neewer boom arms are really decent!
Hi when i try to plug in my earpc to the mic i cannot seem to hear anything. My PC windows 10 also cannot seem to work. Could you advise which type of earpc do you use as my main aim is to pickup calls using this mic (eg like customer service type of work).
Is it not recognized by Windows 10 computer? For Win 10, You may need to pay more attention to the private setting after updating and allow the software access to your mic. If you can't hear anything, please check out your default output device setting.
Fifine K690 or maono au 903
Or Maono pm422 which is best for singing,???
Please rank all three microphones. Please answer 🙏
I wouldn’t recommend any of these for singing, however if i had to choose I’d stick with the fifine k690 then the au903 then the pm422
Do you ave any recomendations of boomarms for this mic?
I cant in good faith recommend my own since its so expensive. However inexpensive options like the Tonor and Neewer boom arms are more than good enough for this mic!
Is there any difference between fifine K683A or fifine K683B plz replyy??
It has no switch off right?
bro what is the microhone that you are uisng
What mic are you using for your intro and outro?
I had to rewatch the intro to remember :p
It's a Rode Procaster, I should have a video comparing a cheap to high end mics and also a full video on my audio gear if you're curious :p
@@Nickyo that'd be great!
Can we insert the type c part of cable into a mobile and the usb part into a power bank for power?
That could be a 1000 IQ moove 😂👌🏻
You can just plug type-c into your phone while leave the other USB port alone. Both USB connector is for getting power supply from computer and transmitting digital signal to computer. So it's not that one for power the other for data.
Do you have a link for the boom arm?
Which one?
@@Nickyo The one in your video
Is t669 better?
Do you need to buy the USB or does it come with it, if not which one do I buy ?
Everything comes included!
No need to worry. The package comes with the USB cable included.
if we plug a headphone into the microphone , can we hear the sound played from computer mixed with the voice captured on the headphone? or just our voice only ?
You can hear the audio on pc too. Just change the audio to the mic
Hi Tedjo, if you choose the K683A to be the default output of your computer, you can hear computer sound. If not, then you will hear only microphone audio.
👍🏼
Do you think I could use this mic w/ my cellphone? (w/ an adapter of course).
Technically yes :)
Yes. The K683A includes the USB-C connector, so you may don't need the adapter. But we recommend using the microphone only with Windows and Mac computers, cuz you can't speak into the microphone and hear from the smartphone at the same time.
Can you use it on a shock mount
Hi Nicholas De leon, yes, you can. But we don't recommend using a clamp type of shock mount, which might disable all the features on the microphone body. You may have to look for something link the one below.

What Boom Arm are you using ?
Blue Compass!
@@Nickyo thanks my brotha I subbed 😃
Appreciate you!
What headset are you using at 5:10
Beyerdynamic DT 990 pros, if you scroll through my videos I have a review on them! But they’re pretty good!
How do I reduce the background noise like my mouse and keyboard? It's so loud...
You can do this by either lowering the gain and placing the mic closer to your mouth or using some type of software either in post or while you use it like voicemeter banana!
@@Nickyo alright thanks!
To be brutally honest, even the high-class USB microphone can't filter keyboard noise completely, but we can adjust the dial setting to reduce the noise coming from the computer. First off, set the dial below 50% if you're in a noisy room. Next, set computer input at around 80%. At last, the speaking range is another aspect that makes the great difference. Keep the mic 3-5 inches away from mouth, the closer the better. If you have any software with the level meter, it's recommend to adjust the volume setting and make the meter bounces from -12db to -16db, then the sound will be pretty decent.
What Is Your Boom Arm?
The overpriced, but amazing, Blue Compass.
can you use the monitoring input on the back of the mic as a speaker input? can i put my headphones in the port and hear my system sounds?
You cannot, the monitoring input only works with audio produced through the mic
For the first question, the answer is yes. You can monitor with the speaker (Just connect the speaker with the computer, then choose the speaker as the default output).
But this action will definitely result to another problem : The microphone will pick up the sound coming from the speaker. Thus, a quite noticeable echo will be heard and we don't recommend doing so.
For the second one, the answer is still yes. Just plug the headphone into the 3.5mm headphone port, choose the K678 as default output without enabling the monitoring feature on the computer system or software, you will just hear the system sound.
It looks very nice
Edit: Grammatical Error
Definitely a cool mic!
Does this mic voice monitoring has any delay?
None that I could notice!
@@Nickyo thanks, i ordered the mic, will check it out... one youtube was doing a review on another fifine mic, said that the voice monitoring has a 5 milliseconds delay... thats why i asked
for those who need the monitoring funtion, i can confirm, this mic does not have a delay... obs and slobs do if you use it on monitoring mode
@@egipttian Awesome, can you also listen to other sounds like ingame sounds?
@@lucasdmc2631 yep, it works as a sound card you will hear every sound, in game, music, whatever. It kinda work as a little amp as well, at least my motherboard does not produce so much volume compared to the mic
Dull sound on desk
does the mic monitoring aux plug kill audio quality ?
Not at all!
Can i mound shock mount on it?
Yes but I actually dont know which one works, it should be on fifines website or maybe a third party, ill check and let you know!!
Yes. You can purchase the shock mount on our official website.

Is it comaptible with smartphone
Yes!
It works in theory. But we recommend using the microphone only with Windows and Mac computers, cuz you can't speak into the microphone and hear from the smartphone at the same time.
Does it work with discord?
Yes!!
Yes. It works in discord.
Does this work with chromebook?
Hi Night X, if your Chromebook system has the USB PnP driver built in (unlike Windows and Mac some of the Chromebook don't, depending on the variation), then this mic will work.
i love your voice
My high pitched squeaky voice 🤭
Why is his seat so low? Impressive if you are swallowing it.
Yo I never noticed how low the seat was 😶
