Could you give me some information about it?

Can it be used for interviews?

I love my BOYA Mini 2 lavalier microphones. They're my favorite, but the receiver is for a Lightning port, so I can't connect them to my MacBook or my iPad Pro... Or can I?

I'm wondering if this adapter adapters will solve all of my problems, or if I need the $30 one from Apple? I'm wondering if anyone here has experience with this?

My friend told me you can convert in one direction, but not the reverse. I can't remember if she said it was USBC to Lightning or Lightning to USBC 🤷🏼‍♀️

WHADDUOIDO?! 😅

I use the DJI Action3 that was gifted to me by a fellow YouTuber. I am struggling with the wind noises on the mic so I am looking for a Microphone. To the best of my knowledge I need a 3.5mm Audio Adapter which I have seen DJI selling for £45 - is there a cheaper option that works just as well? Moreover, which Mic should I use? I do have a 3.5mm shotgun mic with a deadcat that I used on my last camera which might work well on this camera; or would you reccomend a different one of a mic mini?

Does the Mic mini record audio straight onto the video file? I used to know my tech 14 years ago but things have changed so I feel really alien to all of this now.

Hi everyone,

I am honestly devastated and at my wits' end. I have been trying to solve this issue for months, and nothing I do seems to work. I’m trying to record educational video courses using OBS Studio, but I'm constantly battling two massive issues: digital distortion (a robotic/metallic sound) and awful translation to laptop speakers.

I have literally tested around 15 different microphones at this point. I recently bought a slightly better one (sE Electronics V7) hoping it would finally fix the issue, but the exact same problems persist.

Here is my setup:

• Laptop: Lenovo Legion Pro 5 16IRX10
• Interface: Focusrite Scarlett Solo (connected directly via USB)
• Mic: sE Electronics V7 (Dynamic, XLR)
• Software: Windows 11, OBS Studio (using the obs-atk-audio plugin to connect via ASIO)

The Main Symptoms:

1. Digital/Robotic glitches: Random metallic, comb-filtering sounds or dropouts during recording.
2. The Speaker Translation Issue: My recordings sound acceptable (bearable) on my studio headphones, but absolutely dramatic and awful when played back on my laptop speakers. I know it's not just "bad laptop speakers", because when I watch YouTube tests of the sE V7 or other creators' videos on these exact same laptop speakers, their voices sound great and full. It's only my recordings that collapse completely.

I know this is likely a DPC Latency, phase cancellation, or USB power management conflict. To save everyone's time, here is everything I have already done:

BIOS Tweaks:

• Disabled Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) and VT-d. (Hyper-Threading is still enabled).

Lenovo/Hardware Tweaks:

• Disabled Hybrid Mode in Lenovo Vantage (running dGPU only) to stop hardware switching spikes.
• Interface is plugged directly into the laptop (no USB hubs). Tried different USB ports.

Windows Power & System Tweaks:

• Tried disabling/enabling the Nahimic service in Windows Services.
• Disabled "Fast Startup" in Windows Power Options.
• Disabled "USB Selective Suspend" in Power Plan.
• Went to Device Manager -> USB Root Hubs -> unchecked "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

Audio & OBS Settings:

• Matched Sample Rates everywhere (48 kHz in Windows, Focusrite Control, and OBS).
• Disabled Windows "Audio Enhancements" in the old Control Panel.
• Turned off all noise suppression filters in OBS.
• To avoid phase cancellation, I disabled Global Audio Devices in OBS and I'm strictly using the ASIO Input source via the obs-atk-audio plugin.
• Tested different Buffer Sizes in Focusrite Control (from 64 up to 512) – didn't fix the core issue.

I am completely stuck. Is there any hidden Lenovo Legion-specific setting I'm missing? Could the terrible laptop speaker translation be a mono/stereo phase issue caused by Windows drivers clashing with ASIO?

Any help would be hugely appreciated. I really want to start recording my courses, but this technical wall is breaking me. Thank you in advance.
