WH5 : looks very cool!

5 years ago

i was surprised when it came because it was huge! it was heavy also and seems built well. Tried to record on it using my Scarlett 2i2. one thing i immediately noticed is that it has very low volume (compared to a condenser). I need to bring my gain knobs almost full before it gives a decent volume. But i think that is normal for dynamic recording mics. You just have to turn up in DAW.

Overall i am quite satisfied with it.

Below is a recording where I used this mic for your reference.
