«  excellent value for money! »

Value For Money : Excellent
for that price, who could ask for more??
Static large diaphragm multidirectional 3 positions:
cardio (but limited bandwidth and dynamic)
8 (a better balance)
and ubiquitous (slightly noisy)



OVERALL OPINION

always used paired stereo plugs for acoustic guitars,
violins, flutes, harmonica, percussion and sounds from everyday objects
Bass guitar and amp, brass, voice, etc. ...
focusriteDSP24 firewire directly into pro and Daw
(Picture musical documentaries for television and models).

I do not usually take time to give advice,
but some notice published on the site have determined my choice of purchase;
also had regard to the fact that I know this material
and it allowed me to gain a little .... my life with I owed him that right!

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
no, because I will not have to buy them, rather not get sick!
but I will like to try ... without having to promise an order
and having to pay an advance purchase in store or by mail ...
and return the equipment after test!

What is so special that you like best

it is a cheap tool ... but the sound quality is average
= This is ideal for learning to work! the job is in the mix with this microphone!

the least?
is mechanically sound but the components are of low quality
= Switches that crackle and hum appearing in use,
loss of bandwidth over time = this will not be an investment for life!

# How would you rate the quality / price?

excellent, a pair of microphones multi-directional nine to 100 euros (the price of a sm57) that want the best, we should not exaggerate and compare the incomparable, it seems obvious that when you do not have a large budget can not expect to hear the sound of a real microphone for this price, let's be realistic! more if you want the best should have the complete fleet of dedicated and specialized microphones (dynamic - static - cardio - omni - lamp etc. ...).

# Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ..
.
YES of course, otherwise he must save .. very very much!
This microphone is correct and can learn to do the best with what little we have!
(Learning placement natural stereo panorama without retouch
varying angles, axes, spacing, distances from the source
and the multiple combinations possible thanks to its multi-directional)
its quality is not commensurate with its price! it is better!

I hope to soon offer me better
(Multi-directional pair large diaphragm or other type rodeNT2000 .... C414)
but it will cost 5 to 10 times the minimum for more reliable and sounding on top ...
but it must capture the signal chain is as consistent and qualitative
= If it is to save a neumann AC97 sound card with a PC, it's useless
(Although it may be pleasant surprises for little we know what we did!)

Me, I work alone in re-recording and stereo equipment can be narrow sectional in music
and creativity to express themselves and not get lost in handling
= Once played, recorded soon!
is the ideal material for a "home-studio owners-musician" who wants to agree to lesser charges
without taking the head (semi pro models) is not an album project and / or meet the requirement of customers billed at that price it's obvious!
but you'll be surprised at its versatility and its effectiveness in use despite its shortcomings the original ...
