The D1200 is a classical dynamic mic. It is mainly used for  singing or general  voice . Although it's from the the 70's), it  can also be used for percussion, guitars and bass ... A kind of Austrian  SM58/57 

OVERALL OPINION

I've had six months. It is an alternative to sm58 or sm57. Personally, I use it for voice tmoins (sometimes) for the com. in the studio and also to use the guitar amps when the source is bad. Frankly, plutt deuxime than buying a 57 or 58, was worth it to buy one, just to broaden his palette to not rev high.
