    Both the 2012 Minis and the 2010 Mini are completely headless. Unfortunately, this means that accessing them via remote desktop gives you a measly 800x600 resolution. I use this handy little gadget on both of them to replicate a 1920x1080 display being connected. So, when I connect via Screen Sharing I get a nice big display.

It really just has the problem of being way to expensive for quality it outputs. It's pretty much at the price point where a cheap xlr mic + usb mixer is way better, and oh dear fucking lord if you're planning to record while using the keyboard. That shockmount is way to expensive. Your only alternative is the second shock mount for 50$

If you're using it for recording while using the keyboard or voice chat while using the keyboard you want a shock mount. So it really becomes 150-180$ Setup vs

XLR to XLR cable is around 10-15$

that goes to 128$ but you can upgrade the mic later on.

I literally just bought that last night on Amazon. $46 and it's Prime as opposed to like $80 from the Blue website.

Glad to hear further positive feedback than I already have on it.

u/Playinithard · 2 pointsr/Twitch

If you're going for a mic stand you will need to buy a shockmount as well.

Here is one that fits with the Blue Yeti. Not saying if it's good or not. It's just an example.

u/Pyroraptor · 2 pointsr/letsplay

The only one you need to worry about is the shock mount. You can use any pop filter you want.

The best placement for a condenser mic is 6-8" from your mouth and pointing away from as much background noise as you can. Having your keyboard in front of it means you will likely pick it up a lot. You can have it off to the side a bit. This is called off-axis recording. I personally have about 15 degrees of off-axis recording so that I don't breath into my mic. It helps a lot, but also reduces your sibilance a bit.

If you are worried about having it in front of you then you can get a desk mounted boom stand. That's what I use and it allow me to place it closer, still have access to my keyboard and mouse, and not block my monitor. Also you can move it out of the way when you are not using it. Highly recommended, but you would want that shock mount if you do mount it to your desk. That's because you bump your desk a lot and create vibrations.

u/kiwiandapple · 2 pointsr/buildapcforme
Sorry for taking my time /u/AliceWolff as you.. can see I did spend a lot of time on this.
Okay, after all the information I managed to gather from you. I managed to get a pretty extreme PC without going "over the top".

I will provide you with a rationale for each part.
As well as my standard list of videos to help you understand why I suggest these products.
Then I also include some great guides to help you build the PC.
Lastly, I will drop a lot of software to help you with overclocking.

u/UltraHypnosis · 2 pointsr/EroticHypnosis

TLDR: Tips on how to record with any type of Mic

So I make hypnosis recordings professionally and I could get into some technical stuff but wellgnawed did a pretty good job going over that so I am going to go over more how I record. Step one find a place that has good acoustics in your home. This is pretty simple you only need to go room to room and speak like you would when you are going to record and see if you like the sound. It is best to avoid rooms that have any sort of echo. Try to work in a room that has a carpet or rug covering the floor.

Next if you can try to hang blankets from the wall or make a blanket fort. Your goal is to create an environment were the only sound the microphone is picking up is the sound coming from your mouth and not the reflected sound off the walls. Sound in rooms with hard walls that reflect sound can make what is called standing waves. This will result in certain frequency ranges becoming exaggerated. This is what makes large reflective spaces like a gymnasium have that kinda off sound. Just do the best you can and test how it sounds with your ears before setting up. If it sounds like an environment where you could listen to your voice for a long time then it is good enough.

Next you will want a mic stand or desk arm that can hold your mic in shock mount and support a pop filter. Now a shock mount isolates your mic from the stand so if you bump it gently it will not ruin your take. They look like this (https://www.amazon.com/Neewer-Microphone-Suspension-Broadcasting-Voice-over/dp/B00C86FA0E/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1500782010&sr=8-8&keywords=blue+yeti+shockmount). This where I would say also not to buy a Blue Yeti mic or the Snowball. They don't fit in cheap shock mounts you could spend $50+ on a Blue Yeti mount (https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Radius-II-Microphone-Improved/dp/B00TTQLA50/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1500782010&sr=8-2&keywords=blue+yeti+shockmount). Work on placing your mic in a way that it faces your mouth and it is about 6 inches to at most about 12 inches away from your mouth. Then put on your pop filter and see if you are comfy and can stand or sit up straight. Then record a test clip to see if you like the sound. I recommend count down from 5 to 1. 5 has a nice loud I sound in it and you can use this to see if you need to adjust your gain to make your mic more or less sensitive. This can take a bit of time think of this like tuning an instrument. It is also a great time to do some vocal warm ups.

Now if you are reading from a script and you have a cardioid pattern mic a suggested placement of the mic would be at about a 45 degree angle from your mouth so that you hold your script out in front of you to read off of without the mic in the way. But it is key to test this set up first by recording a clip and then listening to it to make sure it works in your space. Also place your mic so that any sources of noise such as a laptop are on the least sensitive side of the mic (normally the back). Also take breaks to breathe between lines. It can be easy when you record to get on a roll and then forget to breathe, which can result in your vocals sounding weaker.

So some other things are that you should drink lots of water long before you start recording and have some handy when you are. If you are a little dehydrated your mouth will make sticky sounds. Also if you are in a loud environment getting closer to the mic and turning down the gain can help make you loud and the background soft. As far as buying a mic look at the patterns it offers. Link showing patterns (http://www.shure.eu/support_download/educational_content/microphones-basics/microphone_polar_patterns). Cardioid is a common and very useful pattern for vocals. Next see what kind of mic you want. Common types are condenser and dynamic mics. You can use both of them for vocals, a condenser mic is usually found in a studio in more optimal conditions, and a lot of popular stage mics are dynamic and they are put less optimal conditions. Finally there is the connection type the common ones are USB and XLR. USB is convenient but you will not find it on any equipment that is meant for true professional use. I also find that a lot of USB mics have higher levels of noise than XLR mics. This seems to be more of an issue in USB condenser mics. XLR is a 3 pin analog connector that carries data and sometimes power (48 volt Phantom Power). To use XLR mics on a computer you will need a USB interface. Be sure to check if your interface provides phantom power if your mic needs it. If you just want to make a recording for fun I recommend sticking with mics that connect via USB. If you ever want to consider recording things more seriously then getting an XLR interface and XLR mic would be the way to go. Also a lot of interfaces take inputs from a guitar amps so you can record a sound with vocals if that is your thing. Another thing to check for is zero-latency monitoring. This means you can listen to yourself on headphones as you record with the mic with no lag or delay. This can help speed up your sound checks. Finally watch a review online of the mic you want to buy. Try to find a person with a similar voice to yours speaking into it. Your ears are the best tool you have to making a good recording. One last note make sure you have decent headphones. You will want over the ear closed back headphones if you are trying to compare audio. You can make earbuds do but it really is best to just make the jump up to something better. Wow, this was a bit longer than I intended. Well good luck with your recording and if you have any questions feel free to ask.

u/BrianGarside · 2 pointsr/podcasts

I highly recommend getting the shock mount for the Yeti, the stand is basically a giant tuning fork, and my sound improved tenfold when I added the shock mount. I also purchased a very cheap Mic stand, and a 5lb weight to hold it down (because it's top-heavy).

I use Adobe Audition, I tried GarageBand, but found it wasn't quite up to snuff for what I was trying to do. With Audition I've created custom noise gate filters which help remove extra sounds.

Blue Yeti Shockmount - Amazon

u/jakofett13 · 1 pointr/battlestations

SO much, they are cheap on amazon. it was only $15 for all the leds I have set up.

Edit: here it is on amazon http://amzn.com/B00TTQLA50

u/videostorecowboy · 1 pointr/Twitch

Here to second the Yeti. I originally bought it for just gaming. Since I'm getting setup for streaming, I've also found that it's the new standard in mics. Depending on how loud you type and how fidgety you are, you'll have to adjust the gain to prevent it from picking up background noise.

Btw, nice to haves that go along with it (and currently on my shopping list of items to pick up) are a good mic stand and a shock mount. Blue makes a good shock mount for their mic and I've read that Rode makes a great mic stand/desk mount. Links below for reference.

u/ExEvolution · 1 pointr/Twitch

If you're going to get a desk mount you'll definitely want a shock mount to go with it, unless you like your mic to pick up every bump on the table, and to vibrate while you're typing.

Now everyone seems to love the Rode mic boom (I don't own it myself, I have a floor mount) https://smile.amazon.com/RODE-Swivel-Mount-Studio-Microphone/dp/B001D7UYBO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1481486293&sr=8-3

And this is the shock mount made by Blue for the Yeti

u/kickedtripod · 1 pointr/Twitch

Like I said before, the Yeti is a HEAVY microphone. Unfortunately, I haven't used a Yeti in years, I would look for a microphone boom (that's the stand you're referring to) that has adjustable weighting OR Google around to find booms that other people have used with their Yeti.
A shock mount is designed to reduce the noises your desk makes. Better put, if you don't have a shock mount, you go from solid joint to solid joint to solid joint. If you bump your desk, your desk reverberates to the boom, the boom reverberates to your mic clip, and your mic clip reverberates to your microphone (basically, any movements you make that touches something that is touching your boom, you're going to get noise). What a shock mount does is suspends the microphone in a way that makes it so those noises are mostly (if not completely) negated. Assuming you have a boom that is strong enough to hold the weight of your microphone, I believe that Radius II shock mount should be able to handle horizontal positioning. If you live near a Guitar Center, they carry Radius II shock mounts. You can pick it up, try it, and return it if it doesn't work.

u/cat-gun · 1 pointr/SexWorkers

Yes, there's a market for all body types. Many sex workers are pleasantly surprised at the level of demand for their "look". However, you will likely need to hustle more and it may take you a little longer to find your audience if you don't have a classically beautiful body. CamModelMom has tips on getting started as a plus size cam model.

You can get started with just your computer's webcam or a phonecam. People have shot feature films on phone cameras.

The key to getting good video out of a phone camera is to learn to take advantage of natural lighting, and lights you already may have (such as desklamps, worklights, Christmas lights). I recommend reading about how to light / film yourself first, then decide what kind of lighting you need:

u/aultus · 1 pointr/battlestations

It's a Blue's own shockmount called Radius II.
https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Radius-II-Microphone-Improved/dp/B00TTQLA50

I was looking to get the Campro spider shockmount but nowhere to be found.

u/jshakes213 · 1 pointr/microphones

There are a lot of generic shockmount brands, I cannot comment on how good/bad they are, however Blue makes its own shock mounts that are pretty expensive that they guarentee to fit their mics well.
https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Microphones-RADIUS-II-Microphone/dp/B00TTQLA50

Microphone scissors are interesting because what you pay for is really durability, do some research, but I would rather pay more for something that lasts forever than to buy something cheap. Ive heard great things about the RODE PSA1
