So, I just purchased a Sony ECM-MS907 Microphone, and I'm starting to think I'd be better off returning it.
When I try it on my Laptop, I get this high pitch buzzing sound. When I try it on my desktop computer however, the buzzing is very low pitch (making it harder to hear), but my voice also records much quieter. Looking over the reviews on Amazon.com, it would seem that everyone who used this microphone with a minidisc player had good results, but those who used it with their PC, had bad results.
So that's why I'm asking for microphones that were built with the PC in mind. I also should be asking, is it even the fault of the mic at all, or do I just have bad sound cards? (These are very new computers...)
Finally, I'm looking for a microphone that is in the $100 range. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions?
Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe
Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch.
The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too.
"While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained.
Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better.
Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio.
The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today.
Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.
