Good condenser for live sound

Posted by djc192 from Portland, Oregon on Dec 19, 2009

This is a good little microphone (albeit a little cheap) but the pattern and clarity of sound are second to only really expensive mics that I have used in the past. I use these for micing choirs and drums and they sound really good a prevent feedback. if you are a sound engineer on a budget you should look into these!

Get Something Else

Reviewer's Play Style: Alternative

I don't think it's possible to exaggerate how cheap this microphone is and how poor its element is.

Not only is this microphone an unusually poor, toy-grade piece (examine the internals yourself if you doubt this), its hugely overpriced compared to something like the cheaper MXL SDCs available at about the same price, which are at least real microphones.

It's false economy to buy this unit. It's a joke.

Not bad at all

I'm trying to create a cost efficient home studio so all my instrument mics are Nady. I have no problem with them at all I was able to record a whole drum kit with one of these baby's. Sounded wonderful, also I tried it as a vocal mic and it was in comparison to my fathers sm58.

Great straight-forward condenser mic

This is a fantastic condenser microphone - especially for the price. These mics, unlike many in the same price range, achieve a remarkably crisp, full-bodied sound for use as drum overheads, acoustic guitar, guitar cab and even vocal recordings. When used with some creative use of spaces and positionings, these mics will get the job done again and again. One bad thing is they are pretty fragile.

Decent mic

Posted by Fern from bellflower on Nov 16, 2008

Experience w/product: I have used it

Reviewer's Background: 16 yr musician , 5 yr. recording amateur

Reviewer's Play Style: rock/metal

I'm a guitar and recording amateur with a good ear. I do the recordings for my band and ive had the mics for about 4 yrs. I mainly use them for overheads and they sound ok. The highs cut through but it doesnt pick up much low end.I had to do some EQing to balance the frequencies. overall these are good mics to start out with but are not at a professional level
