Hi,
A while back we gave me a very cheap handheld microphone.
Like a no brand would be 3€ on some cheap store kind of cheap.
I'm thinking I could use it for an experimental recording, question is what?

I had thought of simply boiling it... But that's perhaps overdone and I'm not sure I want to eat more microplastics than I already do lol

Any other ideas?

Perhaps I should just give it to someone, but it's the kind of thing it's probably not even worth someone's time, people interested in a microphone probably want better quality, and it's TRS mini-jack so also a hassle for a speech event or stuff where you would want a handheld mic.
What do you think?

Maybe some speech or make some popping sounds from your mouth? idk

orange juice

I'd do that with a better microphone
In fact, I already have a few

If you have any ideas for sentences/phrases/words I could add, I'm open to recording a few more voice-acting stuff!

Actually there should be a page/thread of ideas for stuff that's generally useful in videogames, movies, etc...
And I should make a more complete NPC pack too... So much to do x')

Hi,
I did a mic testing with it

Honestly sounds better than in my memories, nothing to write home about though.
