You can also get a better microphone.
I use a Logitech G Pro keyboard, which sounds (to my ears) roughly the same as MX Browns, but I use a supercardioid dynamic microphone (the sE L7, which for my money is the best dynamic microphone you can buy until you get up into the ElectroVoice RE320 territory) on an arm. It's got a tight enough polar pattern that I don't even need headphones because my desk speakers don't feed back, let alone the keyboard that's at a 90 degree angle from the business end of the mic.
- bonestamp2 7y agoI do have a few studio microphones and a high end (apogee ensemble) audio interface. But, that setup is even less convenient than wearing a headset. I appreciate the suggestion though... if I am going to record or broadcast any keyboard sessions that require some polish then I'll definitely isolate my voice with a pickup pattern.
- eropple 7y agoYMMV, but I solved the convenience issue by putting that arm on a flange mount (not a clamp) and that alone made things a lot easier. It also makes people think you're more serious, which is a nice side effect. I have a bunch of studio mics, too, but I've found that teleconference is easier with a cheap but tight-pattern dynamic. Check out the sE V7. It's tremendous for exactly that.
