				| Too good not to share. 
 My voice-over producer friend said when Covid19 broke out, the big studios started buying up the Apogee Hypemic in large quantities and sending it to celebs for voice-over purposes.
 
 It's a plug and play travel mic with analogue compression built-in, and it's designed to emulate a U-87.  Not sure if it does that but man is this thing incredible.
 
 A true game changer for travel kit options.  $350 on amazon when it's back in stock, comes with adaptors, a stand and the cutest pop filter you've ever seen.

				| Care to post a sample? I'd love to hear it. I'll look online as well... _________________

				| The original apogee MiC was my go to travel solution for years, many years ago (still have it somewhere...). Far better sound than a tiny USB mic should capture but the combo of being very sensitive to plosives and high latency when listening over headphones (which I felt I needed to catch the plosives) eventually pushed me to other solutions. 
 Looks like the HypeMiC addressed all that! Definitely worth looking into in the future.
