[not being an asshole]not for nothing, but the first time you turned the mic on and listened to all the condenser goodness, you understood why most of the "mic modelers" and "hiss reducer" and even your tutorial and stuff liek that don't work well on low end mics. Why? because when you turn one sound down, you turn everything else in that frequency down and lose fidelity big time, and that's what makes music sound cheap. Same thing goes for turning certain sounds or frequency ranges up. All it does it amplify the high resistance hiss on cheap mics and makes it sound liek you're recording in the shower.[/not being an asshole]

Oh yeah, if you're having trouble filtering out the environmental noise where you're at, simply turn up the cut on your Noise Gate. Recording on a condenser mic without a noise gate for any in-home set-up is virtually musical suicide.
