It has a micro tape, double tape prcis be, so he took the front and rear!
For it does against virtually the cot so he has a directivity of type 90 with Figure 8 may sound a prt identical regardless of their placement. For résumé can move up and down without the sound changes.
It's a dynamic mic, it does not need phantom power supply, it is forbidden to send him the pain of the 48v dtruire, it must be remembered when testing microphones!
The grille is trs fine compared to other ribbon mics, the ribbon being 2.5 microns must be careful to trs.
The look is strong, the microphone is big, its suspension is good quality trs.

OVERALL OPINION

This is my first ribbon microphone and my voice as serious j'tais intruigu by the sound coming out of the BOX!
First is was a dception tural. Sound a little deaf, without relief, like a can of cotton was really surprised ...
Then I made a comparison with various other microphones, AKG, SM-58, Rode NT2 etc ...
I took the time to listen and has the force ... I came to love it!
It's weird but a force to use microphones that flatter the mid / high, we forget that the sound is warm and soft so beautiful. It was the wrong ear duque. By adding a can of punch at about 8k, I glimpse that without the definition of NT2, the ML-52 is a more rounded, better that Integrates into the mix.
So it's a micro surprising that questions a little habits and his Japanese-style.
I would recommend obviously drunk on vocals, jazz, but also for people seeking intimate aspect, erotic (!!)...
On instruments, classical piano as well give to too many records supre low and the roundness of the piano. This microphone is not aggressive, trs not precise, compared to some large diaphragm mics, but the sound is really enjoyable trs, trs trs natural and warm. TRS is a good investment for a studio that wants to do something other than The variety.
