you pay for an expensive phantom power output
it's not expensive
the chink one anyway
but yeah, the real cost is the phantom power but you can use the same phantom power as you upgrade to better condenser mics
so it's still useful
is there a difference in the quality of phantom power outputs?
yes but it wouldn't matter for Teamspeak or whatever you're doing
unless you're in pro audio i doubt it
^
and should i buy a pre-amp also?
all you need is phantom
no, I used just a basic phantom power for months and it was more than I needed
and people who say there's a huge sound difference with a Behringer UM2 always get BTFO when they can't tell the difference in sound tests
the advantage with having a sound interface is you can mess with it directly
it makes it useful say if you're youtube cancer/podcaster
adjust levels on the fly
but other than that, if you want the mic to be audible/good quality, phantom power is fine
some one on the thread told me to buy that yesterday
It's useful again for onboard control and mixing
and I don't doubt the preamps in there help a bit
most people buy BM-800 because it looks cool
also does the xlr cable quality affect the sound quality?
yes it does
yes you need diamond-platnum cables
monster brand only
triple shielding and tank armor
I've had a few over the years and not noticed much difference tbh
non-meme answer 😂 👌
as long as it is copper,you are fine
well i'm just going to use the one that comes with the mic
no that's not going to work
Silver>Copper>Gold>cheap metals
you need two cables, an XLR to XLR cable and an XLR to 3.5mm
the XLR to 3.5mm comes in the box
no on the listing theres an included cable
yeah an XLR to 3.5mm
that's the OUT cable
ah
you need a cable mic to phantom power
so xlr to xlr
