  • Great Mic! no regrets whatsoever

    As reviewed by Maverick on 7/7/2008

    I used to record with a stage mic, this mic takes my recordings to a whole new level. Clean, professional soundings recordings with no noticable fuzzy noise or distortion. I highly recommend this just for the price alone, the value of this mic is well worth it. The shockmount and case it comes with is cool as well. I record with a Firestudio Project, AKG 220 and Monster cable 100. Together they make flawless recordings and any musician starting out or experienced can find use with this.

  • Great Buy, No Regrets

    As reviewed by Wes on 1/10/2010

    Basically, this mic has everything you need proffesionally without the $2,000 pricetag. I use it for recording any single vocal track i have and it works great with live group recordings. The switch to record at -20db comes in handy when I'm recording screams. The shock mount for it is awesome and I gets rid of annoying booms or tap that the microphone gets when you touch the stand. Overall this mic has everything I need and also the top quality that I like using; all at a fairly low price.

  • Wonderful mic. AMAZING price.

    As reviewed by Nathan on 8/2/2009

    I was doing a lot of reserch on good cheap mics and i came across this one and i felt like i knew it was the one, obviously i was right. I do a lot of different vocal tracking on this mic from screamo to soft pop. I've had many people with different tones and voices and every person had a great clear, and full sound come from it. I also use it as an overhead for my cybals works really well with that also. Overall an amazing mic
