When I walked into a local audio products store Austin Hooper Youth Jersey , the first “device” that caught my attention was this tube-shaped piece of equipment which resembles a mutated chrome dynamic microphone. I went over to the promoter and asked about it, from which I get to know about my very first and only condenser microphone, M Audio Nova.
I had to give it serious consideration before deciding to plunge in. The price was a little on the expensive side considering that I am still a student. “Will I need to get sound proofing especially for this “Condenser-level” microphone?”, “Do I REALLY need a condenser microphone?”
My decision came clear after I realize that, the reason I am in here Deion Jones Youth Jersey , is because I was fed up of getting lousy (those kind you wouldn’t even listen for 5 seconds) audio input from internal microphones, normal external microphones, and even trying out those mini-condenser microphones. I realize I needed something good. Obstacle 01 passed.
I also give much thought on whether I will be doing this recording hobby for the long term or short. I knew that I was going to be committed to this passion of mine for at least 2-3 years, so. Obstacle 02 passed.
I took the plunge, and after a couple of testing and tweaking Keanu Neal Youth Jersey , a bit of blunder here and there, I am convinced I made a decent investment. This may be one of the “cheapest” condenser-level microphones out there, but it definitely suits any beginning home studio enthusiasts or Youtube Star attempters. Enough of my personal story and down to the actual Techie review
Overview
M Audio Nova – A gift made especially for starters and beginners.
Here’s how it looks like with words:
A Chrome Plated Dagger that feels Damn Solid in Your Hands.
It makes me wonder why rockers and metal singers don’t use this kind of microphone during concerts; it will literally “kill” their fans when he let go of his grip.
It comes with a leather, minimal but sufficient padding, zip-type black pouch for you to store the Nova in.
It also come along with a simple black knob holder for the microphone to be connected to the microphone stand.
There’s an instructional manual within Takkarist McKinley Youth Jersey , but it’s pretty brief and it only covers the basic like how to maintain your microphone etc. etc. Nothing serious enough to panic in case you do not see it.
Last but not least, it does come with a XLR microphone cable, although it may be a little on the short side, but it’s long enough to be useful!
Pros
? Pretty decent audio input, in fact Alex Mack Youth Jersey , it might be too powerful if you do not have some basic sound proofing like curtains or thick glass windows, although all those can be tweaked and controlled later ;)
? Good value-money ratio. It was well worth every single cent. I’m not those kind of audio fanatic so I do not need those thousand dollar microphones, but yet it’s decent enough to beat all the other dynamic microphones available.
Cons
? It’s easy to set up, but the initial tweaking to your audio editing software might take a bit more time, say Vic Beasley Jr Youth Jersey , a couple of hours? Provided you are a complete newbie like me *Grin*
? It packs a decent weight, so be careful when handling it, if you actually happen to drop it, the dents are going be to huge, in worst case scenarios Matt Ryan Youth Jersey , the warped metal might break the circuits within, making it worthless. Just be more careful when you are handling it .


What others are saying about the M Audio Nova Microphone:

“I have been recording and engineering for more than 30 years. I own quite a number of excellent microphones ranging from AKG, Rode, Audio Technica and more. I was helping a friend mix a song he recorded on his digital work station and told him how impressed I was by the sound of his vocal tracks. He pulled
