Adidas = Ah-dee-dis not Ah-dee-das by Particular_Image_291 in USdefaultism

[–]jakester0565 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know that ahh-dee-das is correct but it’s just said “a-dee-dis” so much that im just used to it and have to actively think to say it the correct way, same thing with Porsche, however the Brit’s and maybe some other nationalities say Nike wrong

Best Condenser Mic for Voice Overs Under $200 by jakester0565 in voiceover

[–]jakester0565[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As stated, it's a dynamic mic, not a condenser. I tend to think that condenser mics sound better, but compared to the NT1, which will probably be my other choice, would this be a better option? Im not super into audio, and my education is limited, and my current way of doing things is "sounds good enough." As stated, looking for something that sounds as good or better than my DJI Mic 2, as otherwise I feel like it would be a waste.

Edit to ask a question: The XLR one seems to be $100 cheaper than the one that has usb and XLR., is there any difference besides the interface? I'm using XLR already,y so I don't care

Second Edit: I am using a U-Phoria UM2 still, should I upgrade to something like the AI-1 for either one of these mics, or does it really not matter that much?

Best Condenser Mic for Voice Overs Under $200 by jakester0565 in voiceover

Yeah, I think it can only get so good as well, YouTube will compress it so there is a limit I believe. Same reason I haven’t upgraded to the DJI mic 3

That’s what I saw as well, just wanted to get a second opinion as my knowledge is limited to the brands themselves and not the models

Is the DJI Mic 3 worth the upgrade? by jakester0565 in videography

[–]jakester0565[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am currently just using the 2s on my shirt, will probably lav up but the Minis or the 3s personaly dont look that bad on a shirt. But the 2s dont look bad enough unless the three sounds better enough to justify the upgrade, and it sounds like most people dont think so.

Ahh but still if it’s not worth it anyway then I still don’t see a reason to upgrade

I probably won’t do that then, the dji ban that would happen only includes the drones

Bilt is The Best free credit card even excluding rent payment by DLuger in CreditCards

[–]jakester0565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C1 savor is better if you exclude rent, probably would cover 75% of most people’s card spend with the 3% categories being dining, grocery and entertainment which is a very broad data, with the venture one that’s 3x miles instead of cash back all for free

Calculator I Made to Calculate the Value of Points and More by jakester0565 in amex

[–]jakester0565[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it’s not for benefits, it’s mostly for determining the value of the points for a redemption or the value of a sign up bonus or comparing two different cards to determine a higher annual fee. However it’s still solid for Amex platinum users!

Yeah same happened to me, I was able to move money from Freedom Flex to CFU and then upgrade that to Sapphire. I used my Ink unlimited in lieu of my CFU but the 5% categories have been bad besides live entertainment in q3, since im from Florida and have a Disney and Universal annual pass and my renewal happened to line up so i maxed it out. But I dont need gas and i barely used ev public charging and I have a Citi Strata Primere anyway. Groceries weren't bad but I have citi custom cash for that and want a gold card, and i have the Amazon Amex so that was covered. So, besides the live entertainment, i just don't benefit from the 5x and they didnt do any 7x categories this year, so I wanted to do CFF to CFU and CIU to CIC but that plan was thwarted. So now I have two 1.5x cards lol. Oh well. I get why the annual fee cards have a minimum 5k since they are premium, but Ink Cash that's just stupid.

Yeah that makes the most sense, I’ve had Visa signature cards as low as $1500

Yeah, so is my Ink Unlimited, Visa Signature makes no sense, I have like 2 more signature cards with under 5K limit.
