Microphone for home to take his rap voice. For specifications, see the reviews.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought a few hours ago and I've done a lot of struggling with.

I used Shure SM 58 and SM 57, then long been a Rode NT 1000.

Let us immediately: I have not taken any snaps in buying this microphone.

Compared to NT 1000, we note, is above all the virtual absence of background noise. The report noise / sound recorded is significantly better than the NT 1000. The NTK is also more balanced frequencies.

I did not like the sound high mid / treble NT 1000, so unpleasant bump my voice has a lot of treble components. Nothing like here, the base is more pleasant before working frequencies.

on the other hand, do not expect miracles! I immediately said that I only use the preamp of my soundcard (EMU 1820 M), which probably plays a role.

Say that I expected the heat, and a more open, or it is not really the case. Not a huge difference compared to NT1000, nor fidelity, nor heat, nor clarity. For now I'm a little disappointed.

I will change this notice after acquiring a preamp / compressor, which I hope will reveal the (alleged?) Heat lamp.

First edict after a few hours. As I read on sites in English, the sound is "tenuous". He looks a little tight.

At low, not much more than the NT1000, you really get close to the microphone to enjoy.
