Ajushi Photography's video: New Beyerdynamic MC 930 Powerful SDC

This video is about trying out the brand new Beyerdynamic MC 930 for dialogue. This Small-Diaphragm Condenser (SDC) microphone was just released in October 2023. It is basically the same as the original MC 930, but with updated markings, printing and different colored switches. The MC 930 is true condenser microphone that comes with a Cardioid polar pattern. I also found a lack of YouTube videos for this microphone, so I thought this video may help some in their future purchase decisions. As part of this test, I compared the Beyerdynamic MC 930 against the Oktava MK-012 with a Cardioid capsule as well. There has been no post-processing of the audio except for normalization (basically, level & gain). ********************* Time Stamps: ********************* 00:00 - Intro 00:11 - Why Are We Here? 00:24 - Opening Discussions 00:37 - A/B MK-012 00:51 - A/B MC930 01:00 - What's new with MC930? 01:09 - A/B MK-012 01:39 - A/B MC930 02:15 - A/B MK-012 02:38 - A/B MC930 02:56 - Handling Noise 03:10 - Plosive Test 03:30 - Mic Technique / Pop Filters 03:49 - Gain? 04:06 - SDC Advantages 04:33 - Upcoming Tests 04:51 - Off-Axis Testing 05:14 - Proximity Tests 05:45 - Final Thoughts 06:14 - Outro Gear Used (I purchased all products in this video - I DO NOT receive any financial incentives or anything for free by listing the products I use in this video): 🔷 Beyerdynamic MC 930: https://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/mc-930.html 🔷 Oktava MK-012: https://www.oktava-shop.com/Small-and-medium-diaphragm-condenser-mics/Oktava-MK-012-01.html?language=en ********************* FOLLOW ME: ********************* Twitter: https://twitter.com/Ajushi_Photo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ajushi_photography/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AjushiPhoto ******************************************* AFFILIATE LINKS: ******************************************* I do receive a small commission, AT NO COST TO YOU, if you use any of the affiliate links below to make a purchase: ********************* Music: ********************* Audiio (Lifetime Audio and SFX Member): 🔷 10% Discount Code for either Music or SFX: Use “Sella10" with this Link: https://audiio.com/pricing?oid=1&affid=14 ********************* Hardware: ********************* SmallRig Affiliate Link: http://www.smallrig.com?afmc=1hy ********************* Services: ********************* TubeBuddy: https://www.Tubebuddy.com/AjushiPhotography Thank You In Advance for Helping to Support the Channel!
