My workhorse ...A great Vocal MicrophoneNovember 14, 2007 This is the microphone that sometimes plays second fiddle in radio stations to the reknown reigning king of Radio Dynamic mics - the ElectroVoice ..
I own a dozen very expensive condenser microphones ranging in the 500 - 3000 dollar range from AKG, Neumann, Studio Projects, Shure, Electrovoice and many more ..
but the one microphone, I find myself constantly reaching for ... especially when using it with web audio projects which I have to compress and still retain clarity ... as well as presence ..
It's this time proven German tradition that hasn't changed much in it's 50 years of production...
And .. unlike the problems with a condenser microphone where your recording area has to be sound deadened .. my office is located in an active construction zone (Ground Zero NYC) ..
The Sennheiser mic beautifully cancels out the police and fire engine sirens, hydraulic drills and constant construction pile driving here which rule out using my other microphones.
My particular mic is over 20 years old and still used on a daily basis ..
These mics are truly versatile performers and have earned their reputation as reliable workhorses that produce a phenomenal and unique sound.
Classic workhorse microphoneOctober 29, 2005 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I think I first saw/heard this mic in the original Concert for Bangladesh, and could not get over how cool it looked. Typically, I wouldn't consider buying such a thing based on appearance consideration, but the fact that George Harrison and Leon Russell felt them worthy, I considered it a safe purchase. To say the least, I was amazed by this mic. As a producer, I've used it for everything from vocals to horns to acoustic guitar - even capturing cymbal nuances that were lost on other more expensive mics. Live or in the studio, this mic is a serious performer that no performer or studio should be without - several, if budget allows. You won't run out of uses for it. The one down-side is that, over time, the frequency response goes dead (like any mic), but this can be factory-refurbished back to original specs. The mic comes with a graph read-out of your mic's unique response characteristics.
