3
00:00:15,799 --> 00:00:22,920
is finally guys personal rig update number 16 no I'm just kidding this is my

4
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:26,599
mod mic followup so when I originally unboxed the mod mic which is the

5
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:30,160
detachable microphone that you can put on the side of any headphones as you

6
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:35,160
guys will probably know if You' been watching me for any period of time I'm

7
00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:37,360
not a huge fan of most gaming headsets

8
00:00:35,160 --> 00:00:42,200
because generally speaking they skimp on the actual audio quality in order to

9
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:46,360
tack a mic onto them so what I often recommend people do is use a pair of

10
00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:51,640
headphones in this case these are stenis or HD 555s which I used to use and use

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:57,719
something else as a microphone such as a blue desktop microphone or the mod mic

12
00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:01,840
this is the Rev 3 one now aside from promising a followup back when I did the

13
00:00:59,399 --> 00:01:06,920
unboxing I also made some mistakes when I did the original unboxing I didn't

14
00:01:03,879 --> 00:01:08,759
really configure it right so for example

15
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:12,920
this uh this little clip right here is actually for clipping to the mod mic

16
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:16,520
itself to reduce stress on the cable not for clipping to the cord of your other

17
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:20,079
device so I would actually recommend doing that in some other way I also

18
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,040
didn't really configure it correctly in terms of the positioning you want to

19
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:28,560
make sure you get things right beforehand you don't want to kind of like bend it too much and then unbend it

20
00:01:26,119 --> 00:01:31,880
and rebend it and other than that that was sort of most of the problem the good

21
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:36,479
news is you have a second chance cuz they do include another little magnetic

22
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:41,720
piece so you can always kind of Reiger it yourself um and so I never provided

23
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,600
that audio sample that I promised to provide because that was the big

24
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:48,640
question from people is okay there's a solution where I can have better sound

25
00:01:46,399 --> 00:01:54,719
for myself but what about the people on the other line so for those guys the

26
00:01:52,119 --> 00:01:58,759
good news is the mod mic rev 3 does have a list of sound cards that it works with

27
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:02,039
the bad news is some onboard Audio Solutions in particular it is not

28
00:02:00,799 --> 00:02:07,119
compatible with so when I found out where we were getting an ASUS Zonar febus which happens to be on the list of

29
00:02:05,759 --> 00:02:11,640
approved sound cards which you can check out on their website which is linked in the video description I was like oh

30
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:18,640
that's great now I'll be able to do my mod mic followup and then I didn't really bother trying to find another

31
00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:21,000
solution but this sat in the kitchen for

32
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:24,640
like two and a half months while we were prepping and working on and planning and

33
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:28,920
I didn't unbox it yet and then we were doing our extreme Overkill byus guide

34
00:02:26,319 --> 00:02:33,080
etc etc etc until finally then it sat on my desk for a little while longer until

35
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:39,840
I finally installed it in my work computer and recorded the test audio

36
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:41,879
clip so without further Ado the mod mic

37
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:47,319
the most compelling social media cataract is to truly comprehend the

38
00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:51,959
expansive landscape from an editorial Viewpoint during an aspiring potato's

39
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:56,280
early career so there you have it guys it slices it dices it allows you to

40
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:59,080
transfer it from one pair of headphones to another you can actually get

41
00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:03,879
additional little Clips if you want I know they're working on a rev four that's going to be even better you can

42
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,400
put it up like this you can put it down like that you could put it down here

43
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:11,040
like this but I wouldn't really recommend it because you're going to get a lot of like throat vibration and

44
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:15,159
anyway corner of your mouth is the correct position and there are lots of

45
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:19,360
other correct positions too it's all about personal preference thank you for
