As have said in an earlier review these mic work great if you know what you are doing and how to use them Some have said they sound muddy, but in many cases it because they are being used backwards, and that they break up at high SPL, but proper attenuation and or EQ works wonders, I could not believe the sound I got out of them, all are open and airy with good mid and bottom.

This is a great mic to start out with. I used it for vocal recording. It's a bit muddy an d distorted but for the money you get what you pay for. I say go for it, then later on upgrade when you get more serious in music recording.

MXL 909 Review

the 909 is a good mic in the right hands and used with the right equipment and technique. Make shure you have it pointing in the right direction (yes boys and girls there is a front and back to some mic's ) or you will get that muddy sound the so many people have talked about, I have scene people try to record with it backwards and try to EQ it. when I tell them turn it around and they do well what else can I say. The 990 is a good mic to have at hand. And it works great for voice over work.

I have had this mic for a while. If you're a rocker, I would not recommend this mic. Like the guy said earlier too much noise going into it permanently breaks the microphone. I cannot do anything with the mic because of the crackling. It was a good price, but not a very durable mic. Didn't have a very long life span.

I use this mic for recording guitar amps, and acoustic. Sounds fairly good, a little dark, or muffled. but over all fine! (as long as the SPL's are low!) bad pulsives, but for light vocals, room mics, insturments, you cant beat the price! One problem was with the shockmount, the wing nut on the clamp broke a couple days after recieving it. Thank god for spare nuts and bolts!
