All user reviews for the The T.bone SCT700

Joint microphone used on dry guitars, overhead / atmosphere drums, vocals. Tube technology.

OVERALL OPINION

Micro lamp first prize, pretty well stocked (suspension, power supply, carrying case, windscreen, etc.). This is my first micro tube, I tested a lot of mics before transistor (audio technica, shure, etc). None the finesse of it for the song.

I have two now for 5 or 6 years, and I must say that for the entry level of the lamps was there really versatile and useful material context semi-pro or pro (studio only, the micro takes too the noise to be used elsewhere). Although "framed", ie with insulating foam to avoid reverberations, seeking the right distance and the right positioning in the room, it is a quite impressive microphone.

We looked for our final prod to compare different microphones, neumann, shure, audio technica, mxl, and singing, and what was the best. To our ears at least, everything is relative in music.

One small problem, sometimes some noise (buzzing, ringing) but still passengers. you plant it can take on a very soft sounds (intro dry scraper) but use rock w / no worries.

If I had to buy a microphone with my budget at the time, I will be barreling without hesitation.

Tube microphone that I used for both voice for guitars, electric or acoustic.

Comes with a damn good metal case, with the power of the lamp housing and cable, XLR cable not terrible, big clip that will carry this very heavy micro (bring a mic stand that holds up), and the power cable.

This is serious and complete.

OVERALL OPINION

I used it for several years before selling it to move to the Neumann. I had the opportunity to work with a bunch of mics (Neumann, Rode, Shure, Audio-Technica, so on ...), and T-Bone comes out with honors.

It will not make miracles but sondier can get away with, no problem. The lamp is nice for the large level sources, such guitar amp background, it also gives all taken a nice little hand, gently tickles the ears in the medium.

Attention to the weight of the beast: you need a good foot, properly adjusted.

The price / quality ratio is excellent. For that price, there is a serious and versatile microphone.

I started to rap when I bought my first microphone was told (studio), but after testing it on a coupled alessi multimix 8usb the result is worse than dégueulasse.Je do not know much but then I bought a Behringer B-1 and a mixer behringer FX .... I do not know what,
I can tell you that the difference is surprisingly moving from a poor result in good to very good!

OVERALL OPINION

I used a 2 month sentence.

first microphone.

I do nothing apart from the micro package.

the quality / price is + / - well knowing that the B-1 is cheaper and gives a pleasant rendering.

with the experience I would do not have that choice.

Bought 175 euros in thomman (13 euros shipping)

OVERALL OPINION

J such important to use this microphone for voice and acoustic guitar taken.
I have an audio preamp Tehnica 4047sv and MMP2 (roland). I have got good trs rsultat micro pramp with this couple but I have wanted to do a test every light and I have started buying a pramp TL Audio 5050, then j ' did the testing of a micro K2 (rode) and a TB1 (studio projects). I have subsequently discovered on the site SCT700 thomman and considering the price, I have to try DCID the adventure ...

Rsultat of test: T-Bone SCT700 is the one that sounds the best of four, that is the height for it is the cheapest. Sound is defined ar, bass is not lacking without being too fat or dribbling. Trs little Sibilla. Plosives are in the average. The effect of proximity is not too pronounced. The background noise is acceptable. The perception of voices in a headphone becomes a pleasure and taken voice s' is greatly amlior grace this comfortable ... Rponse the transient character really shows off the lamps with a sort of gentle compression smooths the ridges of the signal in a manner truly enjoyable trs. I must say that the micro m has the first sitting ds cost you, I 'm not expect such a quality, of course I remember that I have ffectu tests on the 5050 TL audio necessarily participates in the final result.
Otherwise, the K2 m 'also has much more but once I have the cost SCT700 it n' there were more photo ...
The tb1 (Studio Projects) m 'when he was dcu, often referred to as the soft lights and with this model that is wolf or he is seeing Dfine a little aggressive on the voices that have "potato"!
In SCT700 lamp is not a gimmick and really brings a color SPECIFICATIONS.
I have the chance to have a friend who runs a shop of musical instruments in town or I live, which gives me the opportunity to SSAI a whole bunch of stuff. I didn 't speak only as of the last pickups I tried if I' would Write pages. Everything has to tell you that he among the best in condenser microphone lamps that I have ssay. I recommend it. And I put 9! I must say that I don 't come back yet ...

OVERALL OPINION

I write a lot in home studio (VS1680) and I for a little less than a year I started to invite singers. I needed something deeper than a SM58. So studio microphone. Budget ... hard drive ...

And I fell on SCT700 Thomann, tube for 170 Euros. And then the miracle.

I hallucinated about the depth and warmth that restored the microphone when recording of the voice. Test the acoustic guitar. Extra, but we must deal with low and well positioned.

In short, I consider myself a professional microphone holder. I put behind a dbx 286A, and have fun as a little crazy!

Of course, as each microphone, it must be tame and get to know him. But, in my opinion, the effort is worth it.

Nothing better than a good listener: the songs 'with you' and 'Metamorph' views were the voices and acoustic guitars recorded with this microphone: http://musik.galacticsurf.net/ visit to download and listen to these songs.

Big fat static micro lamp. Cadio. Comes in a pretty big suitcase.

OVERALL OPINION

It pte! It is really good. It feels really good static effect of the lamp ... (Because there is a power supply plug as it is a tube microphone ...). I use it for a week ... and I'm still taken by each dconcert, scratches, vocals, flute (instruments sound small volumes). See in other brands first prize in a light micro ... 500 or 600 euros?

For 166 Thomann ... it would be almost a joke, but seriously Thomann book, not surprisingly, it's just his job properly.

Trs good mic, a little clumsy, very heavy, annoying to carry around, but at least it looks pretty strong.

Level finisher after I'd put my hand in the fire ... The problem with the new brands is that we do not really know yet longviti the product, but has the will, I am pretty confident on this one.

A acqurir emergency homes for low-budget studio owners!

A lamp. used to catch votes.
Thomann the book with its beautiful aluminum case windscreen! suspension! and power supply!
The microphone is trs beautiful and inspiring weight confiance.La suspension is OK.
The general finish is perfect anyway. We do not feel like buying all this 166!

OVERALL OPINION

I reu 2 days ago. I tested on my voice and that of a friend. And the first tests are simply AMAZING!

I want prciser I'm not a pro Ing specially in the sound, just have APRS possible suspension on the microphone, plug the power supply, leaving a little heat the lamp, your exact is impressive. We place ourselves and it sounds good!

I had the opportunity to work in the past with a TLM 103 + mindprint Envoice and I must say I t's great performance by the latter (for the price!) J ' expected in a minimum but I find trs flat, cold, short not at all what I expected ...

As against the 700 + Sct my little Mackie 1202 VLZ pro, it's different. May be is it flattering but I love lamp! The sound is warm, round, with dtail and it seems that there is a lgre compression. it's amazing for the price of it, we can record at home with such quality!

Again, I am not a Pro but I trust my ear. (Can not I be able to ring the Tlm ...)
My goal, to the extent that my budget is small, is to have a config that is of quality homogne and I must admit that I am today compared qualitprix trs happy.

Well, then, the sct 700, for what?
Anyway, good to catch his voice: voices just beautiful and natural.
It's true that when you have fallen for a mike, we want to convaicre it is the best, but in all this is the best of my mikes for voice: Obviously above the MC01 stagg half as expensive and above my chris my m-audio nova better yet passing instruments.
As for the beyer m88, they are incomparable but scne.
Other dynamic? We can compare Figure recess mikes that do not have the same use, nor the same strength: a light micro condo is beautiful and fragile and should be silence in the studio, not too rverbrante zone, and not too dull, and no computer fan: a catch all and it's the level of demand that rises to magnify such a mike that can give ...
So good luck for your recordings, Do not hesitate to invest difrent: sct for 700, I put the voices to 60-90 cm have no effect of proximity ...
And for that price can not be the!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for three months, trying to APRS shure sm 58, beta, and akg 303bt, the beyer m88 (good!), Statistics electrets (good) membranes of large transistor condensatuers Stagg MC01 (no expensive Tolra and friendly), the m-audio nova (cheap, class, not breathing and transparency unimaginable).
The report is qualitprix top (but if they say too much, well, what would you place, chances are he climbs !...).
In fact, I am not a shareholder.

A light seems it. I say it seems, because it is not to let heat ncessaire anything to work.

OVERALL OPINION

Test voice, acoustic guitars, piano, home studio and professional studio.

Studio pro:
A caricature of his lamp. Compression in the vicinity dsagrable 40cm more tolerable for voice. Trs is soft, flattering, it must be given sound.
Voice: 40cm dsagrable not more prs must be given angle for free transient compression. AKG C1000S prettier than a quip of his voice filter. Trs far the Neumann KM84 derrire, 87, 105 Kms, and AKG C 414 XLII.
Acoustic Guitars: no body, no finesse, tinsel. Never before the rose is the worst. Better than a sm57 or 58. AKG C1000S worse than naked, and U87 Neumann KM84, AKG C 414 XLII
Grand piano: open (piano) the best place I've found give a little balance, sitting, roundness, and dtail, in line with the center of the lid, 2m. That way, hard to make it sound. It would sound plutt classic. It's not ugly, but it lacks the sharpness powerful bass of the instrument. Better than C1000, SM57, SM58, worse than KM84, U87 and c 414. Better on an upright piano, above the lid open, membrane perpendicular to the strings, it sounds the jazz. Placement IDAL dpendant primarily the piano, open, more or less dsoss soil, the wall nearest, etc ... I find the uprights much more likely than large pianos.
But it was in the studio, with acoustic tudie, freedom of movement and pramplis suitable.

At home, at home and a friend, it is not the same. The acoustics, however, is not too bad at home, I have no problem of too many rsonances and parasites, I use rgulirement and happily, a KM84 on the guitar and U87 for vocals. The 700 is T.bone dpourvu cutting down and attnuateur. And it is sorely lacking. So is this lousy mug standing wave, which is in the small rooms in the lower promne mdium, l o a stamp! I also mug with the U87, but the proximity + + attnuateur the low-cut, Done done, libr. And our lovely T. Bone is the street, unusable. Yet its price to its intended home studio. Ok, but not in the conditions I have just dcrire. If it makes you feel like your home, take care of your acoustic treatment really Prior, and if you use a computer, paste it a good pramp.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one month, I am very pleased when I received it, it was a shock, very good presentation in his briefcase, the weight that is serious, I wondered if my mic was take!
the sound is very good, I like most is that it's my voice that I hear with all these qualities, and what I like least is that it is my voice I hear with all these flaws, nothing escapes him!
This is my first tube condenser microphone, so no comparison
The value for money is the ball
This choice I would do again in a heartbeat, because it does its job
I put my 9 / 10 because of course it's not a must, but if not, please, because it is a marvel!

Tube Condenser Micro ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have this morning, that is 4 hours now and the result is astonishing. At that price (166 euros y 'knowing that the same type microphones still worth 5000 euros!) Is incredible. I is not enough "play" with the state that is totally irresistible, especially the voice, but in regard to decision-acoustic guitars that I made in two minutes (in my direct Micro Korg D1600 mkII, adjusting volumes and that's it) the sound is terrible, I rediscovered my instrument.

What is most impressive is that the sound becomes better and better. Understand that after taking four one voice was nearly two times better than the first one I made. So one of my first observations, not be afraid to let the lamp warm up (which is normal you might say) for at least an hour or more.

We feel that the sound passes through the glass ... it's hot, there's an amazing presence and clarity.

I had the opportunity to try different mics of this type, including Neumann, and the difference is minimal. I mean, as that minimum 1000 euros to put in a Neumann, it will be better sound (well hopefully for him) but it is clear that the value for money is exceptional!

Another detail that is important, the build quality is impeccable, the micro looks really solid and comes in a week.

If this in some fun, they can continue to seek to micro defects and brand T-bone in general, but when I see prices for some brands and practical gadgets, or so microphones 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000 euros, I say that's where there's no interest there is that even the smallest defects!

Well I leave you because I am going to try out the ribbon mics of the brand.
