all is said in the notices prédédents.
I used to catch me voice, acoustic guitar and microphone as background. I have two that I go through a tube preamp sm pro TC02.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been two years that I have and I am very happy to use that I can be. but yes, we must work downstream equalization to correct frequencies very pronounced, but nothing too dramatic! and for the price you can not really play hard.
I tried a microphone at Thomann (which I know) but he had not scored more than that. then I am not a sound engineer and my level of requirement is not excessive, so ...
value for money is very good and if I had the choice again, with the same budget or more, the choice I would do without hesitation.

Equipped with a cardioid polar pattern, the 120 is a micro Percpeption unidirectional electrostatic plutt robust. It is mixed (vocals and instrumentals taken from his possible). Submitted are two switches on the front of the microphone: a low-cut filter and a pre-attnuateur of sensitivity switchable.
This microphone can be used both for the home studio for the scne.

OVERALL OPINION

I use the microwave for a week and a half. Good microphone, and made good trs trs report qualitprix INTERESTED. The precision is also well suprieure what I've learned from my Previous acquisitions.
I intend to use this mic for home studio with essentially taken voice and catch his acoustic guitar. My impressions are Premire DJ conclusive enough to use as I do.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this microphone for a month, both for its decision to an upright piano, for voice (for vocoder), the output keyboard amp .. Indoors only

What I like about this microphone is the price first, and its sensitivity condenser microphone ..
In using that I (see preceding paragraph), it suits me very well.
I do not expect a resolution and fidelity insane and I'm very happy.
On a more technical point of view, I would say it has an excellent spectrum to the medium, but came to A4-C5 (4-5th octave of my piano), I have an impression of a tin register in an aquarium ... this amounts to a more muffled lack of depth in the high frequencies ...

However, the dynamic and breath are quite amazing, not too grainy or too present ..
I think some neutrality.
A further cut is the selector tape (low freq) and the very opera-20dB attenuator.

In conclusion: Do not expect a TLM50 is not a microphone that comp performance but comp use and range of use ... a very affordable price for a static.
I may be of invest 50 € more for the Perception220 overcomes these acute that I miss.
