«  Excellent versatile choice »

Published on 04/15/11 at 01:15
Large-diaphragm condenser microphone, cardioid with low cut at 80Hz.

Stereo pair, studio or live, very versatile.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years (the previous pair was stolen stereo ...), mainly couple at first, then gradually, and happily, for the live.
In overheads, excellent record in the studio but too sensitive for the live.
On a Leslie, a real treat!
On occasional solo (clarinet, accordion, vocals, violin ...), excellent record but again, a little too sensitive for the live (a KSM32 sounds a bit more neutral but gets less the rest of the orchestra).
