Good microphone for live or ambiance recordings!
I have bought this microphone - which comes with a 5 m cable, a clamp and a wind -shield - for recording live concerts, nature sounds and interviews. The quality is good, quite better than most smartphone microphones and it's stereo. It also offeres a low cut switch for reducing ambience noise.
There are two cable end with xlr male connection, so you can directly plug it in an audio interface or a mixing desk. A
If you want to use it without phantom power from an external device you have to put in batteries.
Connected to an y-shaped adapter cable you can even use it as a stereo mic with a camera oder smartphone.
I recorded teh jubille concert of a gospel choir recently and I was stunned about the sound quality.
Don't get me wrong:
of course you can't compare this microphone to hi end equipment but it delivers a sufficient good stereo sound quality at a budget price.
I can really recommend this!

Why I gave it 4 Stars
Pros:Great build. All metal body. Optional Battery power (aa x 1). High output and very clear natural sound. My main use is for Foley / ambience and field recording. Tests I've done to date were very satisfactory.The mic could easily work as dialogue in film in my opinion.
Cons:(Not many really) Wind shield is useless, would have liked padded case as other companies supply, Best used on stand or blimp as it is prone to handling noise. -10 or -20 db pad would be nice. I would strongly recommend this stereo mic.

Good and sensitive microphone for layman use
Sensitivity and dynamicity are the good qualities of this instrument. I make sound recordings of the nature undertone, without any reflector, and also wery loud traffic voices. My aim is to make recording corresponding to the human ear. The final result is perfect. Many very expensive microphone may operate better if the listener too is experienced professional, but I do'nt hear the dfference. The constitution is long-lasting. The instrument is quite heavy. There is not battery-off switch, but the filter switch can make the lapse to switch off the microphone, which it do not.
