The Apple mouse has the option of just tapping for click. That doesn't allow for click and drag, but if just for clicking that would be dead silent. |

I've been using an M1 pretty much since it came out with Apollo Twin and it has pretty much run flawlessly. Little hiccups here and there, but nothing show stopping and Audition has run just fine for ... |

So I got an M1 MacBook pro and I have used Adobe Audition and my Apollo Twin with no issues. I was having some issues with Izotope Iris2. It would load but wouldn't run right. |

Oh I guarantee there is a difference...just not enough for me to want to give up the safety net that I'm positioned correctly on the mic. I listened critically with my DT 770 PROs and while I kind of ... |

I did an A/B test and I couldn't hear any difference at while using a metal mesh gooseneck filter. I DO however like the larger visual I get on the mic so I can tell that I'm not moving around and mak ... |

Ya know, I've always used a metal gooseneck filter unless I'm traveling and then I use the stock foam one. I guess you guys do make a good point...it probably isn't even necessary. There is no wind in ... |

That is good advice. I used to always leave them in, but then I had a couple clients ask for me to remove them and I think I took that as a cue that people don't want them and started removing them fr ... |

I had that issue with a mic pre I tried years ago...I don't remember exactly what it was, but I do remember it randomly dropping like 5dB and bouncing back up later. I ended up getting a replacement f ... |

I use the Rode PSA-1 and I have my XLR coiled and strapped to the arm for weight. I like the idea of a different weight though. I also like having a floor stand so that it isn't touching the desk or t ... |

Same boat here. I have used the 416 for 99% of my work for the past 7 years or so and I have never had anyone EVER complain about my sound. I had one engineer (who was a self-proclaimed gear junky) wh ... |

Seems like a hackintosh would be more work than just dealing with Win10 and the updates. Have you tried the Group Policy Editor method? When I had a PC I did that and it seemed like it dealt with it. ... |

Add me to the 416 club. Been using it for 7 or so years and I've never had a single issue. Good known sound, built like a tank, easy to travel with. I have a Warm Audio WA87 for the situation that req ... |

I'm a pretty big fan of the Apollo Twin and the SSL Channel strip. I add in an 1176 to protect against high peaks on a good ol 416 and I have had no complaints.
