you can't

molten lotus
but you can make it so it doesn't activate when it picks up noise digitally with a noise gate
how do i do that
I use eq apo with reagate vst plugin
basically thats what i meant i guess? im not an expert as u cen tell
molten lotus
I use eq apo with reagate vst plugin
ehhh sounds tricky
well yeah
you can do it in like
2 minutes
but you need to understand basic stuff
weak rapids
If you can hear everything through the mic then whats your gain at?
unique wind
i want to see a test of background noise rejection between a super cardioid condenser and a dynamic level matched
it’s probably very little
weak rapids
Probably
unique wind
the dynamic will just sound like you’re talking into a sock
weak rapids
Super cardioid condensers all the way
unique wind
factual statement palpatine
weak rapids
The only reason to go with dynamic is cause you dont know what cardioid means, and you dont know super cardioid condensers exist
molten lotus
ill show you how to do something half decent
unique wind
i can’t believe that i’m tripping the protections on my schiit iemagni by trying to drive low impedance planars
on high gain
molten lotus
why do you want to use high gain
unique wind
i don’t think most of their stuff would fare any better
molten lotus
they do really
unique wind
most of their amps run into distortion when trying to run high power low impedance
molten lotus
your iemagni might be faulty
its the first i hear of an iemagni shitting itself
though you are also one of the very few people I know who has an iemagni
but generally schiit makes good stuff for planars
ragnarok and their new speaker amp does pretty good
unique wind
how many people do you know with an iemagni who are trying to bring 25ohm planars to 100db with -8.5 preamp
molten lotus
why the fuck do you want 100dB
unique wind
because i do
molten lotus
ear damage moment
unique wind
nah i have the best ears objectively
but it starts triggering protections and fully cutting the signal with certain bass heavy songs if i’m any higher than 50% knob on high gain
i am running harman bass so
power demands are far higher than stock
unique wind
yeah it was very limited run
its actually a great amp i’m just expecting a lot from it
dry stratus

fair statement
dry stratus
you can measure if something is fine tho
aka by not having overly boosted anything or insane dips/peaks
unique wind
yeah im just expecting it to not to blow a fuse when going above 50%
good thing it isn’t doing that
it’s protecting itself
dry stratus
but can it run an estat

buy me one
dry stratus
or HE6

i’ll take one of those too

molten lotus
What cheap airpods should I get
molten lotus

molten lotus
@molten lotus actually it was possible to do the gate in voicemeeter, ty for the help tho
it is a lot worse than the one in eq apo
and voicemeeter is borderline a malware
weak rapids
Idk how people use voicemeeter lol
molten lotus
I can use it and I like it
but it's fucking trash
kills windows audio drivers
forcing you to do hard formats
unique wind
and voicemeeter is borderline a malware
i consider it genuine malware
molten lotus
i wouldn't argue
hopefully one day a more competent programmer will attempt at making a decent audio routing program
that wont need like 3 different programs using schizophrenic asio networks
unique wind
95% of voicemeter users are only using it to drag the mic eq slider towards bass boom
they dont even use it for routing
molten lotus
they use it for soundboards and streaming
its vban is super useful
only if the program itself wasn't bad
unique wind
the people using it correctly yah
but most of its users are usb microphone kids using it for the eq
"eq"
drags circle down to a different quadrant and done
molten lotus
funny box go in bottom right
weak rapids
A while ago before I got my new one, i bought a used stream deck mini for like $30 so i could have access to the wavelink software lmao
weak rapids
They are very useful if you use the multiple plugins made for it
molten lotus
like?
weak rapids
Well using i believe Hue blocks you can literally turn on or off anything using the stream deck
unique wind
so are all dacs over $100
weak rapids
Also i have this epic discord plugin to where when I join a call it puts all the people in the call on the knobs and I can adjust their volume
molten lotus
with other you press a glowing button instead of your numpad
weak rapids
I have a numpad just for my soundpad lmao
I bought a g915 tkl for $100 less than the full size here in Canada and got a numpad for $5
unique wind
klaus trying his hardest to shit on everything related to microphones, recording, or streaming
molten lotus
its redundant
weak rapids
Lmao
molten lotus
like it or not
unique wind
while simultaneously wanking $3000 headphones with 10 db treble scoops
weak rapids
Oh but also you can assign the knobs on the stream deck + to a lot of stuff, its been really useful for me in editing software going through timelines and shit
molten lotus
midi mixer
or controller
mixer is unnecessary
i will die on the hill that the stream deck is useless except for cool looks
and discord audio adjustment
weak rapids
It has a lot of useful features but you just gotta use them right and get the right plugins tbh
Most people who have stream decks literally use it to like switch an obs stream lmao
unique wind
hifi
molten lotus
which headphone
unique wind
you already know the answer
molten lotus
1266?
unique wind
unique wind
looks the same as crinacle's it's just spaced out differently
molten lotus
it has a 5dB difference in peaks
unique wind
in the same locations tho
molten lotus
yes
unique wind
and at very different volumes
molten lotus
it is very much at different volumes
amir's 1k peak shows 10dB
crin's shows 5dB
lol
unique wind
yeah youre also comparing a 60db graph to a 90db one
molten lotus
yeah and?
unique wind
1266 has extreme distortion at higher volume which is likely what's exaggerating the dips
it's shitting itself
even the crinacle graph is really bad and that's at low volume
molten lotus
at which frequency
unique wind
at which frequency
which one of my statements are you asking this from
molten lotus
distortion
molten lotus
i mean
you are describing what a tube amp
and every audeze headphone does
audeze uses weird driver tensioning at sub bass to make it sound nice
its not like distortion = bad
unique wind
when it's that bad it is
molten lotus
you never listened to the headphones
unique wind
i dont need to
driver technology or headphone design dont magically make that 800-10khz response sound good
molten lotus
yeah but it can make up for it
unique wind
it doesnt
molten lotus
that's like, what you think
unique wind
if all else was equal and the headphone had reasonable tuning itd be better
molten lotus
because you have never used a technically impressive headphone
unique wind
thats the opposite of technically impressive
it has horrendous tuning and extreme distortion
combined with extremely low sensitivity
molten lotus
why is low sensitivity a flaw
lean grove
You know after some deliberation and thought Michael I don't think that you should buy the abyss 1266's

You know after some deliberation and thought Michael I don't think that you shou...
i dont either
unique wind
not shit on the 1266
impossible not to when it's so bad
molten lotus
after you say dt770 is easily eqable
lean grove
not shit on the 1266
unique wind
after you say dt770 is easily eqable
ignoring the 4khz peak dip it is
molten lotus
the bass is messed up
the mids are
you need to eq 10dB alone in for the mid dip
how is this an easily eqable headphone
unique wind
molten lotus
you are very biased towards headphones you own and measure like shit
unique wind
where are you seeing horrible mids
molten lotus
and on the other hand very biased towards other headphones you don't own
unique wind
theyre linear excluding the midbass scoop
molten lotus
and measure like shit
unique wind
which is a very simple fix
unique wind
changing the topic
even while intentionally not trying to fix the two peaks because like you said yourself that’s not a good idea
it’s pretty reasonable with eq when compared to anything abyss or audeze make
and i think thats the 250ohm model which is a lot worse
molten lotus
if you want to do eq cope than anything planar is going to be easier to eq than a dynamic
unique wind
the 80ohm one is easy to fix
molten lotus
how
i mean
250ohms should have the same frequency response
just different distortion
unique wind
it doesnt
youd assume it would but it doesnt
the 250ohm 770 is a lot worse if my memory is right
molten lotus
pretty sure more ohms
the better beyer gets
because easier to drive
because more ohms
but less loud
unique wind
yeah oratory must’ve done the 250ohm
it has that weird double hump in the bass
along with a lot more upper treble
not as bad as i remember it being though
when i say it's easy i mean in comparison to disaster products like the 1266, not easy compared to well tuned headphones

zen dac no

Will be running the shure mv7x through the audio interface and sometimes a guitar. What are some good interfaces?

the one you picked is good

the one you picked is good
It's a bit more expensive than the scarlett solo though

I had them
they are terrible

m track solo
not sure if it can drive an mv7x though
go look that up yourself
timid idol
I had them
what was wrong with them? i used to have some arctis 3s and they were great, got some 7s and they were shit so sent back, got some astro a50s and they r shit and broken so im sending back and looking for something else, ive heard good about the pros
weak rapids
Theres better options for cheaper
molten lotus
I mean they sound fucking atrocious and are the most fragile thing I have ever used
need any other reasons?
timid idol
i thought steelseries audio was really good
molten lotus
not really
timid idol
i heard about the cracking problem wit them
weak rapids
The only steel series headset you should ever think of getting (and you still shouldn’t) is the pro wireless if you want wireless gaming headset with the unique battery swap
Even then you shouldnt get it
molten lotus
battery swap is a good feature
timid idol
whats wrong with the pro wireless?
molten lotus
shame the thing itself is bad
molten lotus
whats wrong with the pro wireless?
it sounds bad mate
its also fragile
also uncomfortable
weak rapids
whats wrong with the pro wireless?
Well the original models Base Station was made in an awful way that caused a constant buzz in the headphones
timid idol
idk about wireless at this point tho, ive had 2 wireless headsets, one steelseries and it was shit and now ive got astro a50s that are just shite aswell
molten lotus
that's normal
timid idol
are wireless just generally bad?
weak rapids
Basically
molten lotus
yes
weak rapids
I think the only wireless gaming headset ive heard be considered “alright” is cloud 2 wireless.
timid idol
what would you recommend? roughly at the £100 mark?
weak rapids
Could also do akg k361 if they want closed and dont need the mic
timid idol
i dont want a seperate mic to the headset cause ill just end up getting pissed off and straight right the mic into my monitor and break it all

go to a therapist then

Man you ask a bunch of audio nerds for a good recommendation and you're upset that you're not informed enough to know one of the biggest headphone companies in the world.

because you can't observe a headphone except for it's frequency response

thats right

didn't take that into account

Honestly the moment they put that gif of a guy talking to a wall as a reply to Klaus I was waiting for Klaus to destroy them
molten lotus
lol
unique wind
if it's just he400se with better headband and more soundstage thats what i want
molten lotus
there is a fuck ton of resonance/decay in certain parts of the response
which is the issue
you can't really undo it with eq though you might lessen it
unique wind
time to mod the better headband to my he400se instead
molten lotus
i mean with the money you have so far spent you could have gotten an edition xs probably
unique wind
i havent spent very much
$300 for my amp dac and headphones
and edition xs has the same headband that i dont like
id get the ananda stealth over it for that alone

you will pay 200$ more for it?

it's $100 but yeah i would

?
M50x aren't that good of a recommendation in 2023. There are a lot better options.
Even as closed backs.
AKG k361 and 371 + an external mic are just miles better.
And then there's also the spread of open backs which, again, are miles better.
night plume
I was reccomending them just posting the video in general as for my m50x's I have had them for 7+ years now LOL
I do not care for open backs personally

Most people prefer open backs in the end. 🤷

I don't even know if that headset would even work on the xbox LOL

night plume
I do not want to hear the audio in the other room that just bounces down the hallway and straight into my bedroom
I have a literal hole in my wall to the hallway
lean grove
Should get that fixed
night plume
It is "fixed" since the way it was designed is to include that hole
a hole in the wall with a vent on it basically
its for air return basically
the Furnace/AC unit is right outside my bedroom
so yeah I want to be able to block that LOUD thing as well
So yeah open backs are NOT usable for me in my current environment
So yeah
Ontop of screaming kids that aren't even mine in the other room
So yeah blocking all that out is mandatory at times
My austism certainly does NOT help with the noise what with sensory overload and what not
closed backs are mandatory for me for multiple reasons

Never said they looked good. They look too organic for me. But you wanna know something funny? The reason why so many cheap gamer headsets focus so much on style is because they realize that they don't need to make good headphones for people to buy them. They need to market cheap shit with rgb and pay someone famous to wear them and people will come flocking with money in hand.
You wanna know why real audio companies don't do that? Because theyre good headphones. And people will buy them because they're good at what they do.

also because they have fuckall for marketing budgets

Gaming is such an incredibly low bar for headphones.
But also get this. Pro's like making money. So when a gaming company comes up to them with a pile of money, they accept it and cope with the worse headphones. I'd be shilling barracudas for a $50k paycheck too.

if your headphones give you any sense of directionality at all then theyre usable for gaming

real wasp
yes and i dont really know how open back ones behave so im not sure
lean grove
Pretty much every capital g Good headphone out there is an open back
They're just better
In almost every single way.
Two main drawbacks, the bass tends to be a little bit less impactful. And they let outside noise in. Not like you're not wearing headphones at all, but more like, if there's nothing playing you'll hear stuff around you.
But aside from these two things, they're better. In every way.

the thing i hate most when going back is the hissing highs on the 770s

If you wanna stick with Beyer, there's the dt880s which don't have the hissing highs like the 770s, but it's still gonna have a sharp treble sound.
There's also the Sennheiser hd560s which aren't gonna have the hissing at all.
If you wanna go even lower treble, then there's the hd6xx from Sennheiser as well.

I mean even at like 80% volume for most headphones listening to a single song should not be loud enough for that to happen
real wasp
im using in ear right now so its a lot louder and i have to crank down volume for everything
plush hedge
I'd say likely the music's just making you notice a ringing that you normally wouldn't perceive because you really have to blast music at a really high volume or for a long amount of time to damage your hearing

when im in a room with no noise whatsoever i hear it ringing after taking off my earphones when listened to a banger

that ringing was probably there beforehand then
