Tried this on a weekend LTD, I hated this microphone. I liked the power of sound but not the seed too indescribably cold and straight. I found the clean sound disappointing. Perhaps it was due to the violin, but many Korean microphones and most get away with more passive at this level. The sound was too square, too surgical, not expressive enough. Power was the appointment and that the quality of the first double that lends itself perfectly to metal styles but also to some experimental music.

And there's the battery to handle. While it is laudable autonomy.

I seriously think that for that price, you can find much better smoke. A buy only if you calculate your sound "output level" when you're a fan of this grain.

Addition of 26 January:
After detailed testing of a micro esp this time, I notice a sound improvement. So there are many, of great importance in fontion of violin used (which confirms the beatings, according to défenseurse of "loyalty to the instrument"). With a guitar bigger sounding, the sound was deeper, more granular, although the trend is definitely the mic smoother, I was able to find anyway a nice grain. The clean goes bad in the medium, which is not bad.

I correct my notes [6]

Note [5] is the average home.
