Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.

I'll be satisfied for good.

Sound

The sound quality of this product is exactly what you'd expect. Professional, clean and robust. So far I've just used it on Voice Over and it has performed well. I recorded a little bit of vocals through it and I can tell it will be excellent at this too. I'm pleased.

Features

An additional windscreen was included that lets you get right up on the mic.

Ease of Use

Meat and potatoes mic. I do wish the filters were a bit easier to adjust, but I understand why they are engineered as they are. It is to prevent someone from accidentally changing the filters/roll off.

Quality

Built like a tank. This mic is gonna last forever.

Value

I think the product is worth the typical $349 asking price, especially if you haven't already invested in a lot of other dynamic mics.

The Wow Factor
