OM 3 : A decent mic

12 years ago

I've always tried to look outside the box (SM58). This performs very well compared to any mic at its price range (of which I have tried many). The sound itself is great. There's no on/off switch, that's a small handicap. And it's not a miracle maker, if you aim it in less than optimum angle considering sound sources, it will feedback, like most microphones. Even while feedback eliminated by a touch of EQ, this mic produces a pleasant sound, at least on male voice. Does not suit female voice very well.
