    very good micro easier to used the sm57 'it depends on the way is it's less of a microphone stand

    the sound is very good in sound settings very easy

    does not pick up surrounding noise

    - Supercardioid Dynamic Microphone (Leger and robust)
    (For the rest we do not care a bit ... c not just the technical features kon microphones nor the rest of the sites are also worse manufacturer for AC)

    Another new version of the famous Sennheiser E609 (This suggests a see the reviews of it too)
    Micro (of course) typed (and even done) to the resumption of amplified guitar.

    New: A filter is about 4 kHz, which is downright cool: It changes the sound well and it goes quite a bit to mix (can be reduced (Jazz) increase (Metal) or leave it (Rock))

    OVERALL OPINION

    Use:
    Amplifiers-Guitar (Frankly ... All! If you have a good amp, good guitar, especially a good guitarist (we forget it too quickly) ca ring. Put in close proximity, do not hesitate to mount the her (but that feeling in c).
    -Toms: They say the 609 but fo Excellent waiting for tests (I no battery)
    -Brass, Saxophone, Congas, collected (in the ca notice I can not say but as much cash it can be quite a bit: the beautiful transitional)
    -Voice: The Pink Floyd live Took a while with an older version pourkoi not ... It sounds a bit "agricultural", but good (not top jsuis personal conviction but jlai kavec test my voice so well ... rather Fodrait I change the voice I think)

    Sound:
    I already chewing a little work but good:
    -Electric guitar: Really good: A nice presence, a stamp faithful, the great transitional accurate enough at the top of the spectrum (for a guitar eh attention)
    As its clear that saturate it goes really well.
    For the rest fo-g see no loccaz test yet.

    We do not forget:
    C a microphone designed to be in front of hp ... close! supercardio and more so:
    If you have a room to the sound decays do not even think about a static (or cash so who "really" good), it captures really like the sound of the HP

    Voila voila, I like well I'm happy, if you want to make home made guitar trankil (or to live too) and you not want to take the head with too much room acoustics and etc. it sounds c own right thing to do (after the 57 is not the same but c c another sound fo see (or hear rather) c but neither better nor worse, and then for that price eh ... it will end up worse o on stage)

    Good shopping and good sound (well it is in France qd mm :-)

    PS: I speak my Ehhh behh c crazy.

    No stand? No problem.

    This microphone was pretty much made for live use. I suppose you could use it to record but given all the options out there, it's really not that special for studio use. It does excel in the live environment however, as I think it was designed to. Despite the look of it, this mic has a very tight pickup pattern and it's a try dynamic to the bitter end. I think some people buy these thinking they are some kind of ribbon or even a condenser mic but they aren't. It really is just a dynamic mic. Think SM57ish in function.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I tour sometimes with smaller bands, and some of the stages I play are so small that I simply don't have room for a stand to use to mic my cab. This is bad since I typically like to use an SM57 or a large diaphram condenser to mic my cabs, which both require a stand. I used to mess with special compact SM57 stands but if they break on tour, you are stuck up river. I was recommended this mic since it is able to be hung from the mic cable over the back of the cab. Pretty genius actually when I think about it. But is the sound good? Well yes it is. It's like an Sm57 almost but with more bass response. It does require a bit off low end roll off at the board with certain speakers. No big deal. The main rig I use this with is a simple AD30 with an Orange 2x12 setup. It's pretty flat. Or flat for what it is. Usually these kind of mics have crazy peaks in certain spots. Not this one.

    It has held up well to road abuse. I actually have 2 in case one dies on me. But it hasn't in the two years I've used it. I've heard they break easy but I've dropped mine maybe 6 times and so far so good. A little disclaimer...it's not the best guitar mic in the world and I'm not saying that. But when you don't have a stand it's probably the best you're gonna get. I wouldn't use it in the studio because it doesn't have enough character or flavor for a track.
