This condenser is excellent due to the clarity that comes through the mix when this is being used. I love using this microphone on vocals, guitars, and as overheads my drum kit. Buy two of these awesome mics and use just them to mic an entire drum kit. As far as vocals go, this mic handles really punchy/high levels of spl, so I rarely worry about using a pop filter. Overall, this is a great mic to be used in the studio, I run it throught my Presonus Firestudio and with a little extra software or analog EQing, this mic sings.
