The Tiffen 2x2" 3 Yellow Soft-Edge Graduated Filterhelps to specifically add a warm, bright yellow coloration to skies and other bright areas of an image while allowing a portion of the image to remain neutrally colored. The filter's coloring is densest at the edge and tapers to clear by the middle, with a soft-edged transition between the density and clear areas. The 3 color density provides less yellow coloration than the 4 density, but more than the 2 density filter.

This filter is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. It measures 2 x 2" / 50.8 x 50.8mm.

3 Density Color Graduated Filter    Yellow Coloring in Select Areas    Tropic Blue Coloring in Select Areas    ColorCore Technology

Provides a bright yellow coloring to select areas of the image.

Graduated filter design keeps a portion of the image neutral, resulting in a more realistic look while allowing for the sky or other bright areas to take on the color of the density.

Q: 1. Would this work as a source for Zoom meetings?

A: Yes, the M-Audio AIR 192|4 Desktop 2x2 USB Type-C Audio Interface could be used as an audio source for Zoom conferencing to facilitate the connection of analog microphones and other external audio devices as desired.

Q: 2. When using a microphone with phantom power, does pop noise occur (when pressing or release the button)?

A: The Kopul MuteMate 2x2 Momentary Microphone Mute/Talk Switch should not present a "pop" sound when used with a condenser microphone and phantom power.

Q: 3. Is there a way to stop the popping noise? It happens every time I mute and unmute myself.

A: After initial setup and the popping noises, I left for a couple of hours and came back, and... no more popping. I emailed Kopul customer support, and they shared the real answer: First, make sure the Mutemate is set to Dynamic mic setting. The Mutemate passes phantom power for condenser mics, so when switching to dynamic from condenser, you need to hold the button down for approx. 30 seconds to dissipate the phantom power stored in unit. Otherwise you will get the popping sound in the first initial uses. So make sure you are set to dynamic, and hold the button down for 30 seconds. This should alleviate any popping. I have a dynamic mic, but I had initially tried this on Condenser mode. That lingering power needed to dissipate before this could work as intended.

Q: 6. Does it require the battery for all mic types and does it come with a battery?

A: The Kopul MuteMate 2x2 Momentary Microphone Mute/Talk Switch is a passive switch which does not require a battery to function with any type of microphone. A 3V CR 1220 lithium battery is included with the MuteMate 2x2 and the battery is used only to power the LED indicator light. Since the switch is passive, it will function regardless of whether or not the battery is used.

Q: 9. I will the stream work for this situation I'm in. xlr mic TC-Helicon PerformV 2i2 Focusrite IRIg stream iOS(TikTok, livestream singing)?

A: There are better and simpler options for your setup. After coming out of the TC-Helicon Perform-V, instead of going into the Focusrite 2i2 and then into the iRig Stream (which has an RCA input for line level signal), a better option would be to go from the XLR output of the Perform-V to the XLR mic input of the iRig Pre HD (B&H # IKIRIGPREHD). The Perform-V has a mic level output and the Pre HD has a dedicated mic input and mic preamp. The Pre HD is an interface that will connect to your iOS device in the same manner as the Stream. It's not necessary to use two interfaces, so the 2i2 is not needed in the signal chain and all you will need is the mic, Performer-V, and Pre HD. You would also be able to connect the mic directly to the XLR input of the Pre HD if you do not want to use the Perform-V.
