  • GREAT budget condenser mic (I use with Zoom H4N recorder) to get high quality vocal, piano, guitar and ukulele recordings!!
Color: Black
I have been using a Zoom H4N audio recorder for years and finally decided it was time for me to add a real mic to make the most of it. I'm not technically a professional recording engineer or musician but I do a lot of recording and audio editing. I sing in a local ensemble and produce very high quality YouTube videos for them as well. A large part of making professional YouTube videos is having good equipment. In addition, I sing and play the guitar and sometimes have need to record practice files for myself for memorization, record things for an audition or just record for fun! So far this mic has exceeded the expectations I had for it for the price! This is a really great mic that comes with a nice little accessories bundle including the shock mount, a nice hard case for both and some great resources and manuals to learn how to use it and get the most out of it. I found those to be very helpful and easy to read! At the end of the day though, the sound quality is really, really good, especially for what you pay! I'm really glad I took a chance on this. It will make you sound great if you're well prepared but don't think it's going to do you any studio magic favors. If you don't know your music or sing/play flat, that's exactly what this will record, haha! No, it does not come with software to edit what you record. I didn't expect it to but some people seem to be wondering about that. Here's how I use it and what I bought to go with it: - Audio 2000 3ft mic cable from H&F technologies - Samson MK 10 mic boom stand - Zoom H4N audio recorder (which I already had) If you're using a Zoom H4N here's what you need to do to connect it: - Plug your mic cable into input 1 and press input 1 (both 1 and 2 will light up but that's ok) - Provide phantom power to the mic by entering the menu options, scrolling to and selecting "Input" and then scrolling to and selecting "Phantom Power". This mic takes 48 so select that when asked if you want 24 or 48. - Enable both left and right channels (you have to do this if you want to hear what you record in both the left and right ears of a pair of headphones) by going back to the menu options and selecting "Input" and scroll to and select "Mono Mix" and turn it on. Ready to record and enjoy! I just record to an SD card on my Zoom H4N and pop that into my PC. I do the actual editing using Adobe Audition software which I like a lot. I hope this helps someone else who is looking for a solid mic to get good vocal, guitar, piano or ukulele (those are just the instruments I play) recordings on a budget or someone who is trying to connect a condenser mic to a Zoom H4N recorder! For the record I did NOT get this mic for free or at a discount. I paid full price for it. ... show more

  • Great product for the money!!! Be advised, you'll need phantom power!
Color: Black
I did my research and discovered this particular condenser mic, among others, as a great option for beginners. I've done SEVERAL musical and podcast recordings with it, and I'm super impressed with the way this baby performs. I would HIGHLY suggest that you hop on YouTube, with a quality pair of headphones, and listen to DIFFERENT users review this mic, though. After making a list of a possible candidates, I listened very carefully to how each one of them performed with different voices. For my needs, it was between this mic and an AT2020. I admit I was trying to save the extra $20, but I feel that it was definitely the right choice for me in the end. Be advised, if you are new to condenser mics, they do need 48v of phantom power. You do have to pair this little soup can sized beauty with a preamp if you actually want to get any sound out of it. I personally chose the Saramonic SmartRig+ 2-channel XLR/3.5mm mixer to get the job done. These two items pair ridiculously well together, just FYI. Especially if you want a great mobile rig, as this mixer will allow you to use your MXL 770 with virtually any smartphone or tablet. The iRig Pre is another great option if you only need to record one channel at a time. Hope this helps! ... show more

  • There is no way the price is right.
Color: Black
I'm confused here. Why is this mic such a low price but fantastic quality. This is quite the most literal plug and play mic there. I am a musician who has recorded with the u87s and top end blue mics and the list goes on. I've been in studios frustrated with the way my vocals sound. Not enough air, not enough bass, not full enough, not powerful enough. The list goes on. I spent under 5 minutes getting the mic to cut through the mix all while grabbing the bass in my voice without the boom. I feel like I'm cheating using this mic. Honestly trying to find something wrong with it and can't. I would fit into the audiophile group I believe and there are many cases where price won't always line up with sound quality. Other times, you've got to bite the bullet. This mic is a great mic. I've seen a lot of reviews from non musicians using this mic and I hope to address concerns of people saying they need a Neumann to sound good. Just not the case. I would advise using a great interface and pre amp and ADA and so forth. But as for the professional aspect of this mic, there's no compromising quality for price. My biggest worry was the frequency response chart having a lot of high end. You can't hear it. It just adds air to the vocals. Probably wouldn't use it on overheads for cymbals, but I'm just focused on the vocals. I've heard a lot of mxl mics that have high problems with sybelence. This one doesn't surprisingly. Wish I saw more professional reviews of this mic. PLUS not that this matters at al. But it looks beautiful. The gold and black is classy and doesn't look cheaply built. ... show more

  • Doesn’t Work With Country Music
Color: Black
It’s a cool microphone, I have no friends so I make up voices and talk to myself with it. It’s great for not feeling like a loser when you can add different layers of recordings and fake phone calls so your loneliness doesn’t make you cry at night. Sound quality is good, I ate too much nacho cheese once and burped and it picked up everything minus the smell. It’s a good mic, get it if you need to do some quick recordings. It doesn’t work with country music though, we don’t need anymore trash music ... show more
