Micro versatile, all has been said in characteristics.
NOTICE GLOBAL
I use it for several months and this is my first condenser microphone, so I could not compare to other models but I chose it for its price / quality ratio seems pretty unbeatable.
At first, I was impressed by the sound quality! And over the months, I began to identify its shortcomings and limitations. I use it mainly for vocals and guitar, but I've also used a cello and quality is at the rendezvous. A microphone that I consider so versatile, although I find it more suitable for the guitar as voice. For voice, he is sorely lacking in treble. Senior mediums are too present and there is a bump in the bass. The result for the voices of girls, it's not bad, for male voices, it makes a sound a little flat, tinny, not enough now. Overall, if you put the voices recorded with this mic in a fairly rich mix, with lots of instruments, voices are found all behind and it's pretty annoying. It will then go through the equalizeurs and other filters to give a presence to the vote. After a few hours, the result becomes very correct! But if you do not go there, it could be quite ugly. In conclusion, allow a few hours to rework the sound. Tip: do not register too close to the microphone! The sound seems much less stifled if you stand a good eight inches from the microphone. However, on an acoustic guitar, the sound is very faithful and usable almost unchanged!
I think I would do without hesitation that choice to start in the record because its price is accessible to all, and with a little work ahead, the result is excellent! However, with experience, I would turn me toward the highest quality, with necessarily more financial investment.
Goodies:
- An amazing quality for the price. Micro entry that can grow at extremely good levels with some adjustments to the mix.
- Excellent on guitars!
- Insensitive to noise: only the password helpful (except for plosives).
Cons:
- Not enough treble, a bump in the bass, mids too high ... so many defects to be corrected in the mix.
- Cable supplied and ridiculous protective pouch. But for the price, it is not too demanding
