C214 : A C414 taylored for small home studios
First impression matter, and in that case it did not disappoint. The case is sturdy and looks good. You instantly know you enter the realm of serious microphones. Of course it does not have any patter selector like the iconic C414, but given I am using it in a small studio (with poorer acoustics) I'd have no use of Figure of eight, Hypercardioid or Omnidirectional patterns. It captures voices with great detail and has been a great update from my dynamic e935. For acoustic guitar, somehow I still (so far) manage better results by combining my e906 (yes e906!) with my e614. It is also a great room mike for my cajon. The mic is still made in EU. Overall a great purchase.
