The question I'm trying to resolve in my head is whether or not the Yeti is better than the AT2020. Decisions, decisions....

I just got off the phone with a friend who lives in North Dakota. He said that since early this morning the snow has been nearly waist high and is still falling. The temperature is dropping way below zero and the north wind is increasing. His wife has done nothing but look through the kitchen window...

Hmm, I never thought of it like that. Good point.

Grrr! I recorded section 13 a couple of nights ago and went to do the proofing this evening. That's when I noticed that there was a very noticeable and constant buzzing all through the recording due to my not unplugging my laptop. (I have to have it unplugged or else, well, or else there is a consta...

Well, I had almost decided on purchasing the Yeti when I came across the Audio Technica AT2020 . These two mics have been flip flopping in the #1 and #2 spots on Amazon for condenser microphones. Both are similarly priced. The main differences I can see are: -The Yeti has a headphone jack while the ...

Are you asking about the Blogging for Books program in general? I believe it can be any book published by WaterBrook Multnomah published at any time. They have a list of books from which you can choose one to have them send to you for review. I'm not sure, but I think for this particular contest you...

[Moderators, if this is inappropriate for this forum, feel free to delete with my apologies.] In addition to recording for Librivox, one of my other hobbies is reviewing books. I reviewed a book titled The Charlatan's Boy as part of WaterBrook Multnomah's Blogging for Books program. (This is a great...

I definitely find myself spending way too much time editing silence. Generally, I put about .75 seconds between sentences and double that between paragraphs. But while I'm listening, I try to determine if a longer or shorter pause is needed between sentences/paragraphs. Makes my editing time much lo...

Thanks for the responses. I'm leaning more toward the Yeti than the Samson but still have a little while before purchasing. Thanks again!
