You can use any other audio interface medium with phantom power, provided it can fire up the microphone. Recordings made with the NW-700 are generally quite good. On symphonic recordings made on high stands, there is noticeable low-frequency rolloff, but this was easily compensated with equalization during post-recording edit. The noise level of the NW-700 is not as good as expensive microphones (those costing 10 to 100X more) but it is acceptable, even for orchestral recording. Because the capacitance is very low (around 50 picofarad, ±30 pF), the resistor forms an R/C network that rolls off the low frequencies. The resistor must have a value of hundreds of megaohms to avoid a cutoff in the bass range.

If you want to use it in Skype or gaming, you must change your laptop or PC settings. Go to computer preferences and change the settings under sound input to the audio interface or mixer you connected. Choosing The Best Microphone For You

And because the condenser microphone stand can be folded, it makes carrying the product as well as the stand around easy and convenient. For instance, if you are doing a podcast, you need your fans to hear you clearly, so you cannot afford to have a lot of reverb. Fig. 6 shows part of the Neewer NW-700 microphone (as I traced it, less the voltage regulator section). Similar circuit designs are used in the many low-priced “studio” microphones on the market. In this case, the electret capsule’s JFET, J1, is pulled up to a regulated DC line (approximately 8.5 volts) and connected through an R/C high-pass network to a transistor stage T1, with a biphase output. This furnishes a balanced differential output for external studio preamps. The problem is that they can’t handle very loud noises. You can overdrive the capsule if the sound is too loud. The mixer will have ports for the audio cables labeled and colored for you to know which cable goes where.

Qucs can provide a variety of AC systems analysis. In Fig. 7, a 0.1V (100mV) signal is applied through a 50 pF capacitor (simulating the assumed capacitance of a small-diaphragm electret element) to the JFET impedance converter. The output from Pins 2 and 3 of the XLR are charted as red and blue waveforms. The vertical scale is in volts, and the voltage offset, because of phantom power, runs at approximately 24.6V. In this simulation, there is slightly less output from Pin 2 than from Pin 3. However, this is unlikely to affect the noise rejection as that depends primarily on the common-mode rejection of the external preamplifier and not the normal-mode difference in signal between the lines. In addition, every product must have a downside. The downside of the Neewer NW-700 is Mac products, mobile phones, and tablets. It is another similar downside with the Neewer NW-800 condenser microphone. Build Quality And Design The design and size of the room will influence how your voice or the sound you are recording gets captured by the microphone. In a large room, you are bound to experience more reverb than you would in a small space. For those working in a niche that requires them to sit at a desk while using this microphone, there is a need for an adjustable arm boom if you want to get the best out of the Neewer NW-700 microphone.

In fact, the NW 800’s high-frequency peaks reach higher than that of the 700, so it’s going to be even more bright and airy than its little brother. This microphone is highly recommended for someone who is just starting out in audio recording and needs to learn the ropes

This means that you will get a microphone that cancels out the noise as much as possible to give clean output. The Neewer NW-700 microphone has gained popularity in the past few years. However, building such a massive fan base in few years has got several people asking questions about its performance and building authenticity. Both microphones are very top-heavy, with a lot of presence in the upper mids. This is going to result in a very bright, hyped sound, which might suit some modern performances but also opens up potential issues with regard to sibilance and unnecessary hisses.

The Performance

Qucs supports predicted frequency response of the system, as shown in Fig. 8. As shown by the “ac simulation” data on Fig. 6, the simulator was configured for a logarithmic sweep from 1 Hz to 20 kHz in 2001 steps. Fig. 8 shows the sweep displayed from 10 Hz to 20 kHz. The frequency response is shown on linear vertical scale in volts, so a difference between 0.25V to 0.5V is ±3 dB. The NW 800 is kind of in the same boat with regard to polar patterns, except that on paper, this is called a hypercardioid shape.
