Spirit : Very good mic!

8 years ago

I use this mic in my Home-studio to record mainly vocals, rooms, claps and snaps, ambient sounds, sometimes to stream...) but can do a lot more. Also, I use it with a clean preamp (no colour added). It needs phantom power (+48V) like all condenser mics. This mic records closely to the reality. Maybe a little boost in the high frequencies.

It's a mic with good sensitivity (more than an AKG 414 for example). There is a built-in popfilter, but I still use one with it. I'm not always completely satisfied with the built-in plus it protects even more the mic so.... it's all good.

I recommand this mic, good deal for a sturdy mic and pretty clean recordings.

Also, no shockmount with it, but a nice box with manuals, stickers and a little gift!

Enjoy!
