Summary: As an external microphones 'n00b' (absolutely no prior experience) I explain some of the things -- e.g. widgets and features -- that I now have on the new microphone; it's a nice peripheral device which will hopefully serve for many years to come (it uses very standard sockets, which should be beneficial to compatibility)

THE past week was exceptional. This past week I spent time doing some 'housekeeping' as we prepare to produce a lot more stories (the IRC abuse has been mostly brought under control by now). I rearranged my desk, adjusted the microphone settings, and last night I finally got back to making videos. We'll strive to make it a daily routine again.

"It has its own power supply and it can become temperamental if not used correctly."The microphone shown in the video is my very first "true" external microphone (the other, prior ones were always utter crap) and it has some built in effects/filters. To me, however, the learning curve was steep. I'm not even used to the idea of having to charge the microphone. It has its own power supply and it can become temperamental if not used correctly. ⬆
