About this deal

Sadly, it doesn’t have interchangeable capsules but most of the time these kinds of microphones are used with their cardioid capsules anyways. The “switches” on the face of the mic aren’t really switches but rather indents that cannot be changed unless a sharp object is inserted into the holes where the “switches” should be. One huge plus though is that the capsules are interchangeable, which will come in handy if one breaks or if you simply want the hyper-cardioid or omnidirectional polar patterns. and 10 to 20 times more expensive, Josephson C42 ( https://www.gearslutz.com/board/attachments/gear-shoot-outs-sound-file-comparisons-audio-tests/127127d1246482748-six-cardio-sdc-pairs-grand-piano-4.mp3 ) And Schoeps MK21 ( https://www.gearslutz.com/board/attachments/gear-shoot-outs-sound-file-comparisons-audio-tests/124931d1244972790-six-cardio-sdc-pairs-grand-piano-3.mp3 ) .dropoff Window

Lastly, the Rode M5 doesn’t come with a PAD or a High-Pass filter, which is actually quite common in small diaphragm condenser microphones in this price range. How does it sound? For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs. Just like the C-4, it comes with a high-pass filter and a PAD switch and it also has a slight boost at the 1kHz to 8kHz range. ProsThey have a tighter polar pattern. I've heard conflicting information but I believe they are indeed supercardiod. This is actually why I don't use them as drum overheads. They sound great on cymbals but I didn't care for stereo field. I record in a tighter space and that is definitely a factor. They'd make a great hihat mic, I just didn't have the extra preamp for it. The difference between this mic and the rest is its pattern, it’s super-cardioid which means that it’s even more directional than a cardioid, even though some of the mics on this list have interchangeable capsules allowing you to use a hyper-cardioid one. The low end is very present yet not muddy, giving it a full and warm sound. The mids and highs really do sound open and airy, and even a side-by-side comparison between the C02 and the M5 on my acoustic guitar sounded almost identical.

You should get an instant answer on whether your application has been successful, though in some rare cases Klarna or V12 may need to look at the application in more detail.

Samson C02 Pencil Condenser Microphone (Single) Overview

Small diaphragm condensers are known for having a very flat frequency response, which means that they take a pretty accurate snapshot of your sound without adding too much low-, mid-, or high-end. Next on the list, we have small diaphragm condenser microphones which aren’t really labeled as “matched- or stereo- pairs” that will work perfectly if two are used simultaneously. MXL V67N MXL V67N Each mic is six inches long and about ¾-inch wide. There is a foam windscreen included. This might reduce wind noise if you are using them outside. In terms of reducing plosives from vocals, it doesn’t. You will still need a pop filter. But that applies to any mic in use in a studio environment. Mounting With their mics being made in China, this allows them to keep their prices competitive. The Samson CO2 is an interesting item from their product range, so what is it all about? Samson C02 – Overview The build quality is really good, it has an all-metal body and a robust design which should make it last a lifetime.

The MXL V67N has interchangeable capsules which are Cardioid and Omnidirectional, but you don’t need to buy them extra since they come with the microphone. They sound very flat and detailed, with no harshness at all. When recording with them you will be able to capture the true essence of the instruments.

Many people consider the Condenser mic as a recording microphone. But they are capable of much more than that, as we shall see. Condenser or Dynamic? It has a -20dB PAD which will allow you to use it in high SPL situations withstanding up to 155dB SPL. It has a slight presence boost at the 7kHz mark and a bit of a roll-offat the really low and high end. Before you go out to buy your new mic, you must answer that question. The age-old argument and a subject that can cause controversy. But at the end of the day, it can often come down to what you want to use the mic for.

The Behringer C-2 are very similar to the C-4 both in price and quality, they have a few differences though; The mic’s frequency response is relatively flat in the mid-range, with a gentle rolloff below 100Hz, and broad 5dB peak at 8kHz.

Samson C02 Condenser Microphones, Pair Overview

The frequency response is given as 40Hz-20kHz, and this tallies with the enclosed graph. There's a gentle presence peak centred at around 8kHz, which usually helps a mic sound airy without it becoming hard or edgy, below which the response is generally flat until the low end starts to roll off gently below 100Hz or so reaching -3dB at about 50Hz. The maximum SPL is a hefty 134dB, so drum kits and guitar amps aren't going to intimidate this mic, but at the same time you'll get plenty of signal from an acoustic guitar or other instrument of similar sound level. Overall the dynamic range is 112dB and there are no pad or roll-off switches on the mic. Studio Tests Although Behringer is famous for making quality high-end equipment, the company is also well-known for offering tempting budget gear. The Behringer C-2 is perhaps one of the best examples of this. The M5 includes 2 mics, so you may worry that your mics will sound off at some point. Not to worry, though, since they work within 1dB of each other. They are consistent and sound about the same. If you use them interchangeably, they shouldn’t have any problems. The sound on the M5 is perfect for quieter instruments or large groups of people. You can use this mic to record vocals without a problem, and it works well with other low frequencies as well, including your drum kit and different loud sounds.
