Value For Money : Excellent
It is a micro electrostatic lectret and large diaphragm. This is the same capsule as the solid tube of the same brand, lamp in hand.
It uses a transformerless circuit, for against it needs a 48V power supply phantme.

3 selectable directivity are: cardioid, omnidirectional or hypercardiode.
It also has a-10dB pad and low cut with a slope -12dB/octave 100Hz.

it has a 3dB bandwidth of 20Hz 20kHz, with a little hollow to 2.5kHz and 4kHz a shelf that extends up to 15kHz before falling ...

It can collect a maximum noise level of 155dB, which is Whereas.

It promises to be multi-trs.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for ending for 9 months. I tried it in diffrent recording setups (voice and masculine fminines, congas, bongos, acoustic guitars, electric guitars) and I was able to express many positions from the source.

I use it in a home studio setup, so the acoustic quality of the catch is felt Scheer.

Russi I get excellent results on both guitars on percussion. each time a sound trs rich, open and dynamic with lots of treble for trs.

the voice, it is true that in some conditions of his, with no pramps tops, it can sound a bit "fermquot,. I agree with the view Previous done everything. But this occurs when the micro gnralement facing the sound source. dsaxe the Ds in that, the sound of the magnitude found.

In Manir gnrale, I would say that the microphone is sensitive to the placement trs, if (the) singer (euse) tends to move too much, the sound can be Ingala . Similarly a rotation of 10, placed between two micro congas will radically change the balance between them and the quality of the sound. (A recall ing a sound that had this same kind of problem with an AKG 414TL2 which has a relatively small aperture, which is also sensitive to the TRS investment, although the quality gn eral is a step up. Normal, it's twice as expensive).

This microphone has a high sensitivity trs to the point that I happened to record voice with the gain at least on my desk under penalty of saturation between converter ... (that true that the singer in question is the safe, but good). In addition he has a background intrinsque low trs, trs short a good signal / noise.

Since I acquired a good pramp (see presonus eureka), I redcouvre the microphone, the sound is now trs transparent, low mdiums have gained in precision The top has a mdium ct "sparkling" trs music while maintaining a warm ct.

MODELS in the compartment infrieurs range from AKG (C3000B), I find that it is more acute in the end, less garish (careful, it's a point of finesse), while having a c t warm. It is true that in premps means, ct chameureux can turn into a carton ct no better effect.

Finally I find the report quality and good price I think I do it again this choice. I find trs versatile, which allows me to not have to invest (for now) in a park of microphones while maintaining a quality sound perfect for what I do (The Neumann one day I, I have a soundproof booth for decision ...).
