PreSonusRevelator Dynamic | USB Microphone for recording, podcasts, and streaming with onboard effects and easy-to-use presets plus a built-in mixer and Studio One DAW Recording Software

The noise floor on this mic is not good, by 12 o'clock on the gain there is already noticeable hissing - you can set gates and filters in the software to try and mitigate the issue, but at that point it just feels like patching over a bad pre amp and the gain is super noticeable everytime the gate lifts. I may have a faulty model as when using the main channel I only seem to be getting left audio, which may be excaserbating the above issue.The noise rejection is also pretty terrible, again relying on gates to try and counter this doesn't work because you end up hearing everything once your voice opens that gateThe sad thing is the vocal quality is actually pretty decent, but the issues ruin the potential. I was hoping to replace my XLR setup with a simple decent usb mic, but this has not been a good first step

I’m blown away by both the look and sound of this microphone! It’s stunning, with a very full and rich tone! So much customisation with the Universal Control app. I’m quite confused by the previous review left here on Amazon saying this mic is noisy. I can confirm it definitely is not so they must have received a faulty unit or cable. The only thing I would say is on the Broadcast presets on Universal Control, the gate is set too high, and it makes vocals sound choppy if you set it to Medium or High, so I always have it on low, which sounds perfect. Totally in love with the mic, worth every penny!

This is supposed to be a Dynamic Microphone with the Unique Presonus FAT channel aDSP plugins for zero latency, and realtime processing.I may be a little biased as I am no longer a Newbie but the io24, which is a condenser version is way more quieter than the newer, big brother Dynamic revelator.The preamps built with this USB mic are super, super noisey. I did a side by side comparison in the same acoustically treated room and the 'hotter' condenser version (Revelator mic) is far more quieter.This is the first time I have been disappointed by a presonus product. Not sure if I received a dodgy unit, but not happy with this.When I activate the Noise Gate, the preamps are so noisy, that the noise gate just makes the processed sound, come across really poor.I'm a huge fan of Presonus but the Revelator Dynamic Mic is a disappointment in my opinion.

Like the rest of the revelator series this offers fantastic built in DSP and all the audio routing you could need for streaming and podcasting.But this mic like many other reviews is let down with incredibly bad self noise. If you like the sound of this mic your better off spending an extra £50-70 on the the io24 and pd70.The pd70 is the same capsule much better built and by pairing it with io24 you get an extra xlr input, and the ability to upgrade you mic at a later date. This mic could of truly been a game changer for content creators but presonus continues to taint the revelator series with extremely bad QA

The build quality and form factor are top notch and the mic does sound very good, but when in use there was a noticeable crackle when i was speaking, i tested a tonne of settings in the pre sonus universal controller but in the end it seemed like a hardware issue, i tried a usb c to usb c cable (provided is c to a) and that lower the crackle but it was still present. Very disappointing as reviews seemed good online, hopefully there is a v2 of this mic because it was very good otherwise

As I am a total newbie to recording my biggest problem was setting it up and getting my distance right from the mic to record, but once I’d done that it worked very well
