Large diaphragm microphone lamp.
rponse in frquence: 20Hz - 20,000 Hz,
multi-directional: omni, cardioid, figure 8 and directivity intermdiaires
Max SPL: 130 dB
Comes with a carrying case, suspension, power supply ...
I do not put that 9 / 10 t becaufe filters would be welcome (but hey, we do not have everything ... oeut)
OVERALL OPINION
Hello,
I possde this mic now for almost a year and I had the opportunity to try it in several contexts, mainly tenor sax, bass, guitar, voice and mic ambience.
I could compare it with other mics including Shure SM58, SM57, Sennheiser MD441, T-BONE RB500, NEUMANN TLM103 ...
The main default of this micro-mdiums are down a bit confused and treble too hard. I would say the most obvious is:
- Between 190 and 280Hz lack of precision (a sort of veil or boiled according to the source)
- Acute and too hard to put forward 5, 8 and 10kHz.
Microphones deficits above, the MD441 me as particularly surprised and impressed, mainly on my tenor sax ...
Compared with the TLM103, despite the bump in hauts-mdiums/aigus of micro (and many modern large diaphragm microphones), the SCT2000 dire need of precision across the spectrum, the dnature Acute lot of sources adding some sort of buzz at dsagrable possible. The only advantage: the heat of the lamp helping get his hat in mdiums.
Which is not bad at all, it is the infinite possibility of directionality. As far omni: with its wide atmosphere. In cardio in proximity: its in your face. In Figure 8 prs, in your face with an ambience more dlicate. Each has a directivity curve frequencies and dynamics SPECIFICATIONS I think.
On bass: + or - 10 cm center to bridge, in omni, directed slightly to the left or right oue according gots and slightly above the fingers, in APRS laguage low-mdiums is quite plutt despite a lack of precision and the sound of strings on the fingerboard to the volume fMeasure.
On the voice: the hissing and the lack of precision of this are the low mdium also felt.
On the guitar: it may be in this area that is most comfortable if the sheet was to make a post EQ recording subtle. It's quite flattering mdiums guitar whose sound is a little too late.
On the sax: I test the tnor and (possibly also be because it's my main instrument) of the bump is unbearable and acute dnature compltement sound. I had a better rsultats SM57 is to say!
My advice would be to buy this microphone and do change (capacitors, lamp:
to buy the MD441 can find it cheap to OCCAZ (but not get a good precision dlicate static) or SAVE to buy a ribbon mic in Royer, RCA , AEA and other killings in the genre (compared to the RB500, adchire)
FOR: - the sound of the lamp
- That even when a static good quality for the price
- Changes or "upgrades" are possible and apparently effective
- The multitude of directivity is sometimes convenient
- The price I think it's hard to beat
CONS: - the microphone quickly falls into the caricature of the lamp with low-mdiums dgeulasses
- Sources for such voices and blowing, the severity of acute is my opinion rdhibitoire
Here!
[Edit: APRS new comparative tests with the Neumann TLM103, in fact the T-Bone takes the road if not for this confusion of mdiums (but provides a grain) and those few peaks trs thugs in the treble that I find difficult without turning the decision dnaturer ...]
