Fantastic Microphone!

Reviewer's Play Style: Rock

First, this mic is gold colored & has three switches on it that aren't shown in the product image. Switch #1. 0 to -10 db #2. Freq response #3. Low cut

Also not shown is a great, HARD shelled case with thick foam padding with which to house your new mic.

This mic sounds phenomenal - and I'm not exaggerating at all. I can be feet away from it and it sounds like I'm singing straight into it. The response is smooth as silk and I just love it.

Cons - All documentation is in foreign languages. (Not English). Other than that very minor knock against it, it far exceeds what I expected & I'm very happy. Behringer & Musician's Friend rock - I'm a big fan now!

I have owned this mic for over a month, and just like every other piece of Berry gear I have, the mic performs way above the price point. I got this to round out my mic setup, and it does it fantastically!

3 Directional responses, absolutely dead on directionality and separation for each one. The Fig8 is perfect for my M/S experiments. One thing that most every add I have seen does not mention is that this mic also has 10db & 75Hz Low Cut switches, and they work 100%. The mic is also a golden color, not bright silver like the pic.

Female vocals, Acoustic Guitar & Mandolin, and Room mic'ing is where I have tried it so far, and am totally happy with each. The Omni setting is almost ruler flat, while the other 2 settings are warm & reasonably smooth in the mid's & highs as measured with my Penguin system thru a OMNI & Delta66.

I have owned the MXL990 for 4 years now, and I have to say that this is a smoother sounding mic, and a better buy for us home studio owners. Recommended!
