RIP to an Icon
Spent my Monday evening setting my streaming stuff up and discovered my beloved Earthworks Icon Pro mic basically died. Perhaps I should have stored it while I waited for the temps to change so I could stream again. Perhaps it was just bad luck.
However, the Fates winked at me after basically slapping me in the face. The Rode wireless mic I bought for my teleprompter works flawlessly with my Rode preamp and sounds pretty decent. If the repairs to my Icon Pro take longer than expected, a Rode mic I use as a boom mic can act as a nicer streaming mic that I can attach to my wireless mics or I can pull out my old Elgato Wave, which was a fine USB mic.
Come hell or high water, I will stream on Twitch again.
