The FiFine T669 is a very impressive mic, ESPECIALLY FOR THE PRICE POINT, and the included accessories are actually REALLY GOOD.<\/p>\n<p>I place the mic in many common mounting positions, so you can hear how the mic responds when placed on a desk, by a camera, or directly in front of you. You can also HEAR how the DISTANCE to the mic affects the overall sound and ROOM AMBIENCE.<\/p>\n<p>The side by side microphone shootout (FIFINE T669 vs. Rode VideoMic) is the recorded, with the mics unlabeled, so you can pick YOUR FAVORITE without bias!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.5&#8243; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.5&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.8&#8243; quote_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;22px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; header_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_font_size_phone=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;18px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_3_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_3_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; header_3_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|3px|3px|3px|3px&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Is it possible to get an &#8220;AutoTune&#8221; sound without AutoTune?<\/h2>\n<p>The short answer is you CAN get close. Close enough for me at least (watch me show you how to make Waves Tune sound just like AutoTune <a href=\"#video\">in the video below!<\/a>). Each pitch correction plugin will have its own &#8220;sound&#8221; but knowing how to properly set them up like in the video below will give you the tools to dial in your own personal flare.<\/p>\n<h2>Why AutoTune Sucks<\/h2>\n<p>Unless you are just using AutoTune in auto mode, the interface for the graphical mode is really clunky and not intuitive.

Randomly, your vocals will be transformed into what sounds like Frankenstein banging a chipmunk. Unacceptable for a $399 plugin! Other plugins like Melodyne, Waves Tune, and Cubase VariAudio handle this much better.<\/p>\n<p>The vibrato feature isn&#8217;t included in the lower tier versions of AutoTune, which is the hidden gem in my opinion.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,2_3&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;3&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;YouTube Signup&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.8&#8243; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;20px||20px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;23px|50px||50px|false|false&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|2px|2px|2px|2px&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset1&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.5&#8243;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.raytownproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Twitch-sm.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Fabfilter Pro MB Plugin Ratio and Release&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Twitch-sm&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.1&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.5&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Twitch Signup&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.1&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||25px||false|false&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Come learn more mixing and mastering secrets with me live in the studio on YouTube!<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"style-scope yt-formatted-string\" dir=\"auto\">\ud83d\udcc5\u00a0<strong>Thursdays<\/strong> at <strong>8 PM EST<br \/><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"style-scope yt-formatted-string\" dir=\"auto\">\ud83d\udd17\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"yt-simple-endpoint style-scope yt-formatted-string\" dir=\"auto\" spellcheck=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/c\/raytownproductions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">youtube.com\/c\/raytownproductions<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Row&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.5&#8243; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.5&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.8&#8243; quote_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;22px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; header_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_font_size_phone=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;18px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_3_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_3_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; header_3_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|3px|3px|3px|3px&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>The Best Alternative to AutoTune?<\/h2>\n<p>There are a several choices, but my personal favorite AutoTune replacement is Waves Tune and the reason is simple.
