Published on 04/07/12 at 06:38condenser cardioid condenser microphone, multi-use.
OVERALL OPINION
used female voice for 3 months.
in static, tested microphones: Rode NT1, EV Cardinal, beta 87a. Spark the colors much less than the Cardinal, of course, it is also much more accurate than the NT1 (which is a bit messy), it "compresses" not like the b87a: the spark is more sensitive to the effects of near the shure but not as much as the Cardinal, the spark is more of him with a switch "low cut" which limits a little pop in this case.
most: a quality mic in this price range, excellent sound, finishes ok but not perfect: product purchased then exchanged for problem thread is not properly adjusted, a defective copy, it can happen, everything is back to normal after exchange standard.
the least: the anti-pop provided, sympathetic attention but in practice it is not very effective, it remains in the box and we put a real anti-pop is better. the Shockmount is ok, but could be improved, on the other hand I do not know if we can screw the spark of another Shockmount "standard" may be better than that provided, personally I prefer but I have not done any research at this level so is done with for now and it's going. In sound, it also has a small side which I find somewhat "metallic" sometimes because of his slight bump in the 12k I think but it also gives him a nice presence, up to you
value for money very well, all is not perfect but for that price, this mic to do everything seduced by its excellent design and a serious concessions apart from a few accessories 2-3 (the thread, accessories of bundle) to put on the account of the budget, the key is definitely there, ie the sound and general construction. other than that, the packaging and "atmosphere" that emerges of the overall product when you unpack and install is really nice and warm, without spoiler, you will see for yourself ... It's also a little about it that we recognize that we are not there in front of an nth product "Chinese low-cost" lambda.
yes I do it again this choice is a good product that has its place within a micro park due to its seriousness and its low price. its sonic characteristics allow it to be comfortable I feel on lead vocals m / f (for backing voc least because of its relatively neutral color), acoustic guitars, wind instruments, woodwinds and brass, percussion congas bongos in stereo for the piano and a choir as it can do (but they are not sold paired, shame ...), on the other hand for archaea or string electric guitar, I am wary of his side metal mentioned above I think it might be a little too "boring". or harmonica or bass drum, I feel bad ^ ^ "
in short a very good GP who can provide many services if this is your first micro but also a good choice in a park with other microphones to specs, colors and different profiles for specific records.
