incredible mic

voice, acoustic sources - one of the best mics I've used. Very flexible - at this price, it's a no brainer!

Amazing value and sound quality!

Very useful in many scenarios and love being able to manipulate polar response in post. Even the stereo mode sounds good. This is a smooth sounding and high quality microphone. I prefer some of my other mics for singing vocals but is now my go to for almost everything else including spoken word. Looking forward to buying a second to try out ambi mode!

Great mic to have in your toolkit

This mic is awesome. I don't really use the double polar pattern recording but even without that it's great. A little bright but that's it's sound
