Characteristics
What kind of microphone? (Song, sound, mixed ..)

All uses. Singing the snare, to the resumption of amp ...

What technology? (Electret, condenser ...)

Electret
Overall Opinion
How long have you use it?

15. Not always the same: o)

What is the particular feature you like best and least?

The best: clear and micro prcis, hides nothing, equilibrated across the spectrum, acute trsdfinis, mdiums do not saturate, low mdiums prcis, low trs own. Resistors with good feedback.

The least: not age well. Electret capsule fatigue. A C535 that 10 years is not worth much. Big Difference gain and spectrum between two microphones after the age.

Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

I n'achte no microphones (a few Neumann / Schoeps) but I use a lot. The C535 is one of my microphones prfrs.

How do you report qualitprix?

Excellent. For 250 you have almost the quality of KM140 or a WCC-3. On certain aspects (Larsen, treble) is even better.

Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...

Yes, no hsitation.

mcmix's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

Characteristics
I will not repeat what has excellently said ... rdubost trs versatile.
Overall Opinion
Buy will have one year.

What I like:

- Scne on: in fact he left little feedback, I will say as much as a beta 58 and certainly less than a SM 58 for much more sensitive

- In home studio: the sound for the price, really great for a small membrane, a smooth and clear

In short I recommend + + +, for the price Do not hesitate, and more on scne it will ask you not to worry. Good sound, cheap, easy to use: strong arguments.

J-Luc's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

Characteristics
I found this microphone at a folk festival, there was a lot on stage to the beats (accordions, guitars, flutes, violins ...) and even voice. The sound, the insensitivity to feedback, despite an excellent ability to chopper instrument sawed me.

[Edit 06/02/08] I use each for voice and dance at home for stuff that is nickel.
Overall Opinion
I've had this fall, is the top for the acoustic guitar. FINALLY, concern over investment, more resonant with the con, at the top of easy to use! I tried the NT1 (zero for the guitar), ATM-33 (good), Oktava MK012 (but much less brightness) and C-535, the revelation :-).

[Edit 06/02/08] A brightness chouille too precisely. The pick-jack creek and the creaking chanterelle. On a somewhat male folk, it can be difficult to correct.

It is not overpriced, his job done perfectly, whatever you ask for?

Thank you thank you Arnaud, "Plastok2" on this site, my guru, for advice.

remy29's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

Characteristics
Discovered on my snare drum ...
Overall Opinion
... On the occasion of a model made by a friend of his career a few years ago.

I found this mic and use a little unusual on the Snare.

In my case, I had a steel snare drum and a snare drum made of wood, with a set mostly rock but also brushes. It allowed to dispense with a micro stamp (reduced number of entries to the console).

I was convinced by its build quality, its ability to absorb the high levels, sensitivity (which is an electret .. brings out all the nuances of our box, I did not make as many "pains" laughs ). I call your rimshot, and you finally find the sound of your snare to the replay!

For the value, to a few dollars it will cost you almost the price of two SM57 ... Personally, two microphones = twice the work. Not that I'm lazy at the console, but the forest of foot cable, phase reversal, etc. ... why complicate things when you can make it simple?

I remake that choice again! I am so positive because after this discovery, I continued a few years with the SM57 traditional (for the sound but blah mat), 421 (expensive), BF 812 (sensitive to sounds in the distance) before going to solve a adopt the 535. I am continuing my experiences with other microphones whenever possible but the snare is the standard drum kit and deserves this delicate attention ;-).

olivier085's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

Characteristics
Well everyone has the technical description, no need to s'tendre the above ...
Overall Opinion
I use it on my voice for almost three years.

What I love about it is the dtails it reproduces on the top of the spectrum. It almost felt to be a mini studio microphone. The highs are crystalline, the lips are really well made, and he can be warm. What you ask for?

Sr is good for singing on the deathmtal there may be better because it captures much ambient sound. We must therefore avoid placing themselves in front of a wall of Marshall, Ampeg, or sonor drums too (lol). But if we remain within the context of use fixed by the manufacturer (singing "quiet" reversal of instrumentals ..) Well we are thrilled!

It is really excellent.

The only bad Premire impression is getting started ... It was a bit like he is anorexic, the guy ... But hey, what is important Äärelä?

I would buy a well for each group zicos ...

Bennyhill's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

Characteristics
Lectret condenser microphone (in Ralite for miking instruments (brass, pianos, guitars, snare) and vocals. Can also be used live, Off couse 48V power supply required.
Overall Opinion
I use the microwave for 4 years and pay about 300 euros the era, with the goal of a good microphone acqurir scne. Lass of the LORD SM58 which does no good on my voice, I chose this mic for its quality of restitution. It is a micro honnte trs, which, you know, its a pretty clear, and gives pride to the high-mids. To live it is a little too sensitive and too fragile to feedback I got, but using home studio I am really pleased. I find it really puts my voice in value (style voice lewis taylor / Christopher Cross) and I almost never touch the legalization to bring out in the mix. I compared this with microphones MODEL much more expensive than I paid for eventually keeping it. I think ultimately to find a microphone that gives me a rel more, it will require at least 1500-2000 euros, the report is therefore my opinion qualitprix exceptional! Not to mention that by using large static lamps Dearest, you must have an acoustic treatment of thunder classroom setting not remove under penalty of no less than all adjacent sounds. With this microphone, taking into proximity not worry, even if it be There's a little lightweight breath audible. It is a versatile micro REALLY, I use also taken on percussion, guitars, piano, although it is the voice that he's bluffing me the most. Sound REALLY a micro lens which MRIT pramp really good and a good compressor derrire.

If c'tait again, no one I Rasht hsiter is sr!!

fark's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

Characteristics
Condenser microphone phantom 48V power supply and therefore de rigueur that I use to catch snare drum, acoustic guitar, guitar amp back and taking votes, mostly on the live (in the upper level to mitigate the However, whistling).
Overall Opinion
I use it for years (even a pair, quite old and still works fine).

I like his versatility, and high-pass attenuator practices for certain uses.

I did not find a flaw.

Excellent value for money, currently around € 250.

Investment (without breaking the bank) than recommended for micro thin enough and is not confined to a single use.

Characteristics
Cf card manufacturer or previous ones opinion.
Overall Opinion
Excellent this microphone!! He does first by the board of an establishment grants mtal because I could not catch the grain of the distortion with a Shure Beta57 that I did that in the Attack of the sound, then the owner of the shop "The Microphone" Paris (which is good advice trs) ... and I found from lots of use. In continuance of a guitar amp saturates First, it is going to bring the "big sound" (provided you have the guitar, the head and the baffle ad hoc) placed 45 of the membrane HP, in clean warm tones it takes on a snare drum, it will bring the clarity of the attack ... In short I can not draw me back on my caf in the morning, but its Contents, as it does good. Buy.

Small snag in its Fidler can also bring the breath. A four with a large Q can target and remove this little handicap
