Best headset to record voice-overs?

Archive: 6 posts


Hello, everyone!

With LBP2 now out, I figured it's a good time to start comparing and/or discussing different headsets for recording voice-overs for the best quality. For example, is the PS3's Bluetooth Headset set to HQ better than X or Y USB headset found elsewhere?

I have compared the PS3's Bluetooth Headset to Logitech's ClearChat Comfort (http://www.logitech.com/en-us/webcam-communications/internet-headsets-phones/devices/3621), and the verdict... PS3's Bluetooth Headset!

Post your experiences and/or suggestions! I'm sure there has to be even a better headset than the PS3's...

I've only tried one bluetooth (a motorola H-something) and a Rock Band mic. The RB mic gave much better results and preserved the lower tones better.2011-01-22 20:36:00

I recently bought a Blue Yeti Snowball (http://www.drumza.com/images/BlueSnowballUSBMicrophone.jpg) microphone for recording my acoustic guitar. Just so happens to work great. It cost about ?70.

...Not really a headset though, and I'm sure no one would buy it primarily for LBP.

Well I just got 100% in LBP2 yesterday and just finished all creation tutorials and I was upset to find that, even with the new music tools, there were no voice or choir sounds added to the game (other than beatboxing). The reason I wanted them is to recreate a song sung by a chior where I don't need audible words, but can recreate with just the notes, but I still want to do it with voices and not instruments. (No, "angelic choir" isn't gonna do the trick.) I haven't tried them out yet, but I'm thinking neither my PS3 bluetooth headset (if that's even possible with the sound coming a speaker) nor my PSEye are going to give me the quality that I want.

That would also equal endless loading times - imagine having to download an whole new sound bank each time you loaded a level?!

I think the closest you are going to get for your Choir sound would be the "Mime Artist" midi, this is the closest "Human Voice" sound object we have - tweak each notes timbre and you might be able to recreate the vowel sounds you are after - won't sound perfect, but better than nothing
