The Sennheiser Profile is one of my favorite USB microphones. It sounds great and is super easy to use, with full physical controls and no required additional apps or software. But it’s a new mic, and there are lots of amazing options out there, so let’s compare the Profile’s sound profile to a ton of other options so you can find what works best for you!

No processing or effects were applied to any of the mics in this video. The Profile was recorded into Adobe Audition so I could easily monitor levels, and the other USB mics were recorded directly into QuickTime. XLR mics were recorded with the generic “Dynamic” or “Condenser” options on the Rodecaster Pro 2.

Hi! My name is Tom Buck, a lifelong A/V nerd and former high school Digital Media teacher. I started this channel in 2017 as a project to share my enthusiasm for everything related to audio and video production.

It's my goal for each video to be interesting/helpful/atleastmildlyentertaining, but I'm an enthusiast and not an expert. You can take a look at my About page to know more about my background, both personally and professionally: [ Ссылка ]

My channel is open and welcoming to people of all races, ages, genders, and orientations. I’m glad you’re here.
