XLR Audio Interfaces for Playstation 4
Good evening all you fine folks, have any of you figured out any good options to use XLR microphones when streaming via the Playstation 4? I foolishly assumed my lovely Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 plugged into the USB port of the PS4 would work perfectly as it does so on Windows and Mac computers but I get NO JOY when hooked to the Playstation 4. The Blue Icicle XLR to USB interface also fails miserably. The only option I've found that lets me use my XLR mics with the Playstation 4 thus far has been my iRig Pre which while a nice piece of equipment isn't quite as clean a signal as the interfaces. It is of course a MUCH less expensive option tho so some folks may be seeking a budget option and so the iRig Pre at $30-$40 is quite affordable. Thanks for the help folks. If you've any other ideas please let us know. Check out our Website at http://www.madmohawkfilms.com and watch us live on Twitch at http://www.twitch.tv/madmohawkgaming

MXL 990 Mic pitting the Blue Icicle Versus Focusrite Scarlett 2i2
Do you need a high end DAC interface for your Large Diaphragm Condensor Microphones or can you get away with a less expensive one? Watch this video and you may find your answer. I put the inexpensive Blue Icicle interface against the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, the Scarlett is three times the price of the Icicile but does it preform three times better? Have a listen for yourself and make your own decision. Best to listen via headphones to avoid missing any subtle differences.I use the MXL 990 mic on both interfaces. I used Poser to create this lip synched talking head but seem to have buggered it up somewhere along the way alas.I used the Wingard Popgard Pop filter on the MXL 990 to try to avoid any plosives.
