Transparency you can hear through

I have used tis microphone on a number of recordings and a variety of stringed instruments. Its clarity and transparency beautiful frequency balance would challenge the stalwarts of the microphone industry. I used it in a mid/side configuration and the results were excellen.t

nice but heavy

good sounding mic! modern bright sounding. not shrill like a most of the condensers at this price point. this mic pretty heavy and big. It looks real nice ad sturdy. but less convenient incase you want to use two units in XY configuration.

Bueno por el precio

Pros

- Good, Sturdy, easy to use(no need for pop filters/shook-mounts)

-Good for vocal and acoustic guitars.

Cons

- I found the sound kind of weak en the middle, not so flat sound. Wish it had more clarity.

Conclusion: Is very good for the price, listen to demos and if you like the sound, go ahead.

Good all-rounder at a reasonable price

I purchased this mic to record vocals remotely but the different polar patterns gives me the option to record so much more such as multiple voices at once.

The build quality is very sturdy and the mic itself is quite heavy- which I enjoy but the weight maybe something you want to consider if that bothers you.

For the price and sound quality - this mic is a real goer, obviously it won't compare to the top rated neumann mics but I find that is still a quality mic and I think setting up the space around it in a room can really set you up for success.

No shockmount

This is a great sounding mic but it needs a shockmount.

pro

build quality is great

sounds great in a lot of sources ( guitar, cello, voice, m/s the 8 form recording side is awesome)

cons

It gets a lot of noise from the floor, for a good recording you will need a shockmount!

NO SHOCKMOUNT!

NO CASE!

BAD SHIPPING BOX!

So, this mic sounds ok but I am still mad about the shipping box (mine arrived crashed and wet, even the plastic arround the mic was opened because to ship this you need to put A PROTECTING CASE, RIGHT ASTON? the mic works (I dont know how and for how long) but, at this price point the shockmount and the flying case should be included. 3 stars.
