![]() This thread may be dead, but I went ahead and measured the impedance of the woofer and the tweeter for this little speaker. I think higher order crossovers, coupled with a lower crossover frequency would result in a suprisingly nice little speaker. However, I think you are asking alot from it to run up to 5 kHz. I am sure they are capable of reproducing great vocals and midbass. The woofers in this speaker seem to be fairly decent. The EPI speakers can move the crossover frequency down and still have descent protection for the tweeters. Most tweeters have their free-air resonance around 1.5-2 kHz. However, from what I understand the free-air resonance of the EPI tweeter is somehwere around 500 Hz. I think EPI makes single pole crossover tweeters. In theory, single pole crossovers can result in good response. But it appears like they hobbled a potentially decent speaker with a horrible crossover network. There is big savings in cost and design comlexity by using a single capacitor. Any input signals around the free-air resonance of the tweeter must be sufficiently attenuated or the tweeter is susceptible to damage. The only way to do something like this and still protect the tweeter from low frequency energy is to move the crossover frequency up. It looks like Sony used a single pole (capcitor) filter for the tweeter crossover network. The tweeters don't appear to be doing very much either. There seems to be a hole in the response, starting at the higher end of the vocals. Listening to them, my initial impression is the same as I have seen here. Construction was good, and the drivers seemed like they were above average. I know a fair bit about speakers, so they seemed like a decent little set. ![]() What do you think of the Tascam MiniStudio Creator US-42? Let us know what you think in the comments.I picked up a two pair of these little speakers in great shape at Goodwill for $20. ![]() It’s perfect for broadcasters and podcasters alike! With plenty of customisation at your fingertips, you can make your recordings sound absolutely fantastic, and even add a few little extra bits into your broadcasts to liven them up with the simple touch of a button. The Tascam MiniStudio is a really useful, all in one, USB audio interface. We aren’t sure when you’d need to use these effects, but they are quite fun to mess around with if you should want to. You can make your voice sound like it’s coming from an old radio system, deeper, higher, super echoey, or even like it’s very broken up and choppy. Using the computer software, you can change how your voice sounds on the microphone, but we don't mean changing the polar pattern of the mic. The Tascam MiniStudio also offers a few little fun extra features too. You can also use the software to apply different sound effects to the Pon keys on the MiniStudio, meaning you can press these to play out the sound effect during live broadcasts. This gives you the chance to make your microphone recordings sound even better and more pristine than before. The software comes with two tabs One for Easy setup, for those who aren’t as confident with more complex settings, and then an Expert tab that allows you to fiddle with EQ, compression, reverb and much more. It also offers the option to connect your headphones or even some speakers up for monitoring purposes.Ĭonnect the MiniStudio up to a computer and download the app to operate it to see it's full potential. It offers a clear display of the broadcasting levels in a circular window in the middle. Each mic also has its own gain dial and a setting switch for what kind of input is attached. The Tascam MiniStudio really lives up to delivering “everything you need to become the next internet sensation.” It has two XLR microphone inputs with 48v phantom power, meaning you can have a mic for yourself and a guest. Buy the Tascam MiniStudio on Amazon USA or Amazon UK.
