Value For Money : Excellent
Supercardioid vocal stage microphone static. Therefore requires a 48V power but supports voltages from 11 to 52V!

OVERALL OPINION

I received it two days ago. I immediately did a test in my home studio. I recorded my voice on a tape instrumental. First with the SM58 and the Beta 87. Both have passed through the Mindprint TRIO.
I first listened to the SM58. I have found the result quite good ... until I listen to the recording made with the beta 87 ... day and night!
The sound is crystal clear and incredibly precise, crystalline highs and lows are very hot and very accurate at a time.

The next day, so last night I took him to repeat. We play in a small room in a circle. We play hard because the drummer taps very strong ... I have not had any problems Larsen. Impeccable sound quality, a very high fidelity.
I actually find it easier to sing with the microphone because I really feel to hear "my voice" in return. I therefore feel like a much finer control of my voice, I can correct the detail.
The downside, no false notes are missed. But to know what you want!

This is my first microphone static scene. The difference with the dynamics that I had the opportunity to test (SM58, MD431) is enormous. It's not even bother to compare them.

The price / quality ratio is excellent if you buy in the United States as I did. I do it again this choice 1000x!

EDIT:
I used it for the first time Saturday night live, the microphone is a real massacre!
