All user reviews for the Studio Projects B1

I suddenly recovered two I use a couple. Rather to make the atmosphere and resonances of a room or to take a choir.

OVERALL OPINION

I have other mics better (but still kind home studio RODE NT2000), but at 50 euros a pair, I could not pass it up. Honestly, it does the job but the sound is a bit messy. I amused myself with several acoustic guitars, it works very well on simple parts, but a big flatpicking fast and powerful will this mic knees! It's a mess right now.

But in this price range (close to 100 euros nine), it is at the top of the basket.

The Studio Projects B1 is a super cheap condenser microphone designed with the home studio owner in mind. The mic has a cardioid pick up pattern and a frequency response ranging from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. It has a built in -10 or -20 db pad. It comes with it’s own hard shell carrying case, a shock mount and a wind screen.


OVERALL OPINION

The Studio Projects B1 is one of the cheapest condenser microphones on the market and because of this has become a popular mic for home studio owners. I hadn’t used the mic until recently when a friend of mine bought it for his home studio. He has a very small set up with really only an mBox and Pro Tools, but a mic like this was all that he needed to make his set up a decent little recording rig for demos or home projects. The B1 is cool because you’re going to be able to record a lot of different things with it. It’s not the ideal microphone for any one application and definitely isn’t a professional microphone, but within a home recording environment it will definitely do the job. It’s a nice vocal microphone (again considering the absurd price), which is probably the application that most will be using it for. It’s helpful that it comes with it’s own shock mount and all the extras too. Having said all of this, I wouldn’t recommend the Studio Projects B1 unless you’re looking for your first microphone for a small home set up. It’s not an amazing mic but any stretch but the price makes it accessible to anyone. If you’ve already got a few mics at home this isn’t going to really do you any good but it’s a cool option to have if you’re looking to spend just about $100 US dollars on a condenser mic.

Cardioid condenser microphone. Very simple, no adjustment or directional pad: it is a first prize!
Beautiful construction, look "pro", but it's not really what matters.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it mainly on the votes. I have not tried other models I've seen it on sale for 80 euros, I did not hesitate: for that price ...
Let's be clear: this is really the entry level. It is sensitive and bandwidth is wide, but he became aggressive from the medium, and it does not really catch up with EQ. By comparison, a ATM33a is much less aggressive, much more "soft". Must be said, the B1 is supposed to be a micro "studio", and it is cheaper than ATM33a, micro "live" ...
Obviously, to 80 euros, the price / quality ratio can only be good!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month of intensive Manir only on acoustic instruments (cello, guitar, folk, bandonon, piano, mandolin, for key). My opinion is mixed: it is a micro super versatile, can be used both in proximity that made room, trs prcis, it grabs all rsonnances and overtones of my instruments, trs sensible, absolutely zero-breath (I do a multi with 12 o 16 tracks you do not hear any hiss), output level lev captures everything (including the indsirable, noise ambient sounds of instruments, breathing musician, leakage of the headphone thing and caused the pice rverbs etc. ...), this means is that its use needs to work well the placement of microphones. These are all qualities. For cons, I find it quite cold and sometimes aggressive, especially on my cello, I was going to a console soundcraft everything that catches me by adding heat, but the APRS Premire made I recognize that on this point I dcu t.
In short, it's not bad at all but you have this micro derrire Global Warming what the sound seems to come from the ice sheet. It is true that nanmoins the price is unbeatable. I'm just waiting to use it in making room for groups of chamber music (string quartet) to see what a deal. I wonder if even today if for less than 100euros more Oktava do not take the best route ...

OVERALL OPINION

This is my first condenser mic and I'm surprised rsultat trs. I use it mainly for recording classical guitar. Your exact is striking: it is almost professional. The balance of bass and prsence ncessitent no thunder and no legalization. The decision is rvle suprieure a distance (1 Maître). this distance it also captures the rverbration the pice. In Qubec, it is now selling $ 129 and comes with elastic attachment. Excellent choice.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this mic for tois weeks.
J will appreciate the roundness of the micro carractristic due a large capsule ca, mas I regret that the bass is also made imprcises ... it is actually very difficult to rework down properly ca dgouline too).
By making use of micro singing, he rvlent shame, with a trend Legre EXAGRES all that is over ten pounds, and a little weak in the medium.
Personally I will use this microphone to capture more ambience, scratch amp, or bass, positioning has a good meter of powerful sound sources, or micro-up to a double recovery by electro jack ....

the black point of this microphone is a PRESION quil cash equivalents 137 DB .... Fine, but where is the 20 or DB?
If you make direct contact middle-end sound card, type ediroll ua 25 or similar, expect a few surprises, except to any other station, analog or numrique, the Penns of gaming pad

The highlight of this microphone, and although no surprise, is the relation quality price.
Like a Berhinger of its great era, studio project offers the possibility to Pettes boursse, to acquire a small microphone that will do more than act as a Swiss Army knife of micro ddi but which is very useful for all home studio.

conclusion:

N'aurrez you ever, even with the sound of a Fairchild U89, or even only one or a RE20 At 4033, but you will not lose your money.
