I may sound like a broken record to anyone familiar with my reviews. Nevertheless, I\u2019ll say it once again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Good quality audio gear has never been more affordable than it is now. <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Back in the day, you used to have to spend close to a thousand dollars for an interface that was a cut above the home consumer level, which at the time wasn\u2019t designed for professional use. This is no longer the case as companies continue to innovate while bringing costs down. Your audio interface<\/a> plays just as big of a role in your sound quality\/tone as your mic and physical recording space<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Disclaimer: This kit was provided free for review purposes.

Better yet, the price tag is only $189 USD for the Volt 2<\/a>.

No extra gear is required to get healthy recording levels<\/a> for a dynamic mic! The preamps need to be pushed fairly high – however, they were still clean! No hiss from the preamps was introduced to the recording from using a higher gain setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This raw recording (okay I took out the mouth clicks; no one wants to hear my spit) is measured at -23.84 RMS or -24LUFS with a true peak of -3.36dB\u2026 perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n
