Behringer C-1 Reviews

Probably the best you can get for the money

Everything else I know to sound at least as well as this one costs at least twice more, and this one sounds pretty good.

For the price this is a very good mic

You really need to have this mic in your home studio

First mic is a dud…

I purchased this because I’m starting a YouTube channel for reviews. The first mic arrived, nearly packaged and well kept. The construction is sturdy but… when I connected the Xlr cable I get incredible crackling and static. Returning for exchange and we’ll see how the second one shows up. For now, I’d advise to stay away.

Great mic for the price

A great mic for an average price range. It's not jaw-dropping quality but with some production magic it can sound "more expensive".

Simply incomparable

My very first reaction when I got this mic was something like "wow, looks like a professional microphone". In fact, not only looks, but sounds too.

A bit of constructiveness:

— Price. I don't think if there can be any questions. It's affordable to anyone. More expensive mics can cost X times bigger but they probably won't give you more quality.

— Assembly. Frankly, there's some things that could be done better. More frankly, you won't be worried of these things because they don't obstruct you from doing good recordings.

— Sound. I'd like to give it 5 stars, but you'll definitely notice some issues when you record and mix some complex project with many recorded tracks.

Well, this mic is just the legendary one. I recommend it for people who has recently started diving into recording vocals, acoustic guitars, etc. There's no better option for that price.

TOP TOP TOP

I was looking for a good beginner setup to stream, record and just sound professional when gaming and i was not expecting for a 30$ mic to sound so damn good and be of high quality but this mic is amazing for this price.

I already recommended to all my friends and after like 6 months of using this mic daily i didn't expect any issues with it and i also added some plugins for it and it sounds more professional now. Buy and Enjoy guys, this is all i can say about this MIC.

Cheap but good

For home recording I think is one of the best mics under 50 euros. It's also good for discord and for gamers that stream on twitch.

The best cordial budget mic on the market

Every time I have a voice or video call with a new person, they ask me what mic do I have because the quality is amazing.

If you need a studio mic for casual phone calls, or even for professional podcast recording or streaming, look no further!

A great budget-focused alternative

This microphone is a great budget-focused alternative to other microphones at this standard of quality.

It's solid metallic housing, great-sounding capsule and otherworldly value for money are absolutely what makes this microphone great.

Cons?

Hard to find any, to be completely honest. I've used this microphone for

just over a year now, and I can't find any microphone that matches the quality at this price point whatsoever.

A great choice for those starting, experienced in the field, or those who are curious about budget options to some fantastic sounding microphones out there on the market that stick pack a punch, albeit at a much easier to handle price-tag.

Good for the price

With a price tag like this, it is hard to miss with a classic like this. It does what you want it to do - nothing more - nothing less. I use it for both instruments and occasional vocal recordings and I have only positives to say about my experience with this microphone.

One of the worst used microphone

If you not gonna buy the Behringer KIT with this microphone, don't buy it.

1. Reason, not even a big membrane, it's small membrane about and it's more like Electret membrane

2. Reason, not 20,000 Hz maximum was about 18,000 Hz

3. Reason, It's very noisy

P.S I saw disassemble of after it arrives at me on youtube (From Russian) and can prove it

P.P.S VIDEO: to Link Direct Timecode where it's showing capsule

For 30 eur it's the best micro if u have low budget

If you have low budget u can buy this micro and the best sound card u can and buy better micro in the future.

Experience of C-1 use

I bought this mic for videconference calls, both for buiness and personal conversations. Before that, I tried to use my old Audio-Technica and Senheiser E906 dynamic mics. The first one gave me almost nice sounds, although a little muddy. The second gave me a little bit of "radio" effect without much macking in the low frequencies area.

So, I decided to try a classic design condenser mic. Honestly, I selected C-1 because of limited amount of money.

In general, the mic works fine and suiots my needs - now I have greater freedom of me head movements compared with supercardioid mics. Also, I almost have reached the "TV presenter" sound effect according to my subjective understanding.

As for cons, I could mention only moderate hum sound. May be, It could be a problem for professional recording, but for my purposes it's OK.

Behringer C-1

Its feels very well made, and sounds awesome for its price, best mic in this price range.

Unbeatable for the price

Just... look at the price dude!

It makes wonders compared to their competitors. I've recorded drums, vocals, acoustic guitars.. I love it, sometimes even more than my very expensive ones.

Might be a little too excited in the higs, but that is not something you can correct later.

Try it out!

Best budget mic

No explanation needed. The best budget condenser microphone. Beginners will enjoy this

not a condenser

It's not a condenser mic, but it's very nice for this price

Could not get a better mic for the price.

I am using this mic for voip calls through Komplete Audio 1 interface on my PC.

The sound quality is clear and the mic pick ups voice quite good up to 2 meter distance. Have not tested any further.

For now I have compared it against Samson CL-7. The Behringer has a bit more output gain and crispness.

Excellent quality compared to the price!

This mic looks and performs like an very expensive recording condenser microphone. I am very satisfied! Excellent sensitivity. Red LED signals the phantom power is coming in. I am very satisfied.

Brought as a Gift

I brought this as a gift for a family member and they're very happy with it for recording vocals and guitar.
