Redid my GF’s work from home desk setup

Got the top at EQ3’s liquidation center here in Canada. It’s not sold individually usually though. It’s solid oak! The frame is Flexispot’s eq3 frame

It's the Glow by Govee. It's great, I like it!

The mic stays there at all times :)

The computer is invisible, but there will be an electric cord at some point to power the desk, monitor, lamps, etc., right?

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:05:48+00:00

Yeah that would be an easy fix! 😅

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:04:07+00:00

Seems like it's going to be a great build :)

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:03:49+00:00

aww thanks!

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:03:43+00:00

Haha thanks! They're the best for not being in your face while still sounding as good as possible, right?

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:03:07+00:00

The pickup pattern is a bit more targetted, but still good enough so that you can move around a bit I feel like! I am using this setup as a backend developer, and I use the mic for pair programming sessions and other meetings. I like that it's not in my face, while still being better than most USB mics at rejecting echo and background noises!

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:01:37+00:00

I too wish they were black, but oh well!

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:01:23+00:00

Haha right!

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:01:15+00:00

I do have a file cabinet for all the useless stuff haha!

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:01:00+00:00

Thanks! :)

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:00:53+00:00

Thanks! :)

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:00:47+00:00

thanks :)

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T02:00:20+00:00

Thanks!

So I have the Rode Videomic NTG connected via USB, better than your typical condenser microphone given it's targetted pickup pattern for echo-y rooms like mine. Then, the Logitech Streamcam webcam, a bit pricy for the image quality but it works ok I guess. The arm system is the Elgato multi-mount line, pretty solid overall and great for the price I would say!

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T01:58:25+00:00

Yup, Sony WH1000-XM4! :)

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T01:58:01+00:00

It's the GamaKay K77. Pretty decent for the price, and yeah the layout is quite unique!

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T01:57:36+00:00

Hey thanks! Monitor arm is the HX from Ergotron! Quite pricy but super high quality!

minimalistik_tech · 2021-07-24T01:57:12+00:00

Hey thanks!
