MA-67 Studio Condenser Microphone, 34mm Gold Large Diaphragm Capsule, Including Hydro Pop Filter, Metal Shock Mount, XLR Cable and Mic Bag - For Music Production, Vocal Recording and Podcasting

I don't have much experience with studio grade audio equipment, but for those who also are new to this, listen up. A cheap microphone works for things you might be doing for work like zoom calls or presentation videos, but this.. this is the equivilent of going from an old beater car to a porsche and it's still affordable. The sound quality is phenomonal, the built in amp is rather clean sounding and it actually sounds like.. me. The build quality is amazig, I haven't seen any visable wear, although it should be noted that I am extremely nice to it. The sensitivity is just right and it functions as a mic. For people who are new to XLR microphones, you will need a USB audio interface so that your PC can understand the audio signal. TLDR amazing product, well priced, and phenominal sound quality.

Besides the fact I haven’t been able to use my device in months, i love everything this has done for me. I have made so many good songs with this and the crisp quality will never stop geeking me to the max. I barely have to compress with this microphone as long as i have a foam piece over it.

I had the MXL880 before, which was good too, but it darkened my voice (made it sound more bassey). This mic is very clear and natural sounding. It comes with a pop filter which, I do not like in my opinion, but the mic itself is durable, along with the stand it comes with. Since it does not pinch, it has no risk of slipping, since you screw on the microphone. Overall, it's a great product, looks good, and it sounds great, especially at the price I bought it. I like it better than the MXL880 due to its natural sound, and sensitivity.

I have some mixed feelings about this mic, for a long time I have been looking for something that suits my voice (deep Barotone), everyone was recommending the Rode NT1 but i had some reserves given I had a neat king bee which alothugh is an excelelnt mic, I find it too dark for my taste, and from what I was hearign on reviews the NT1 seemed similar in taste, so one guy recomende this on his channel (there are only a couple who even reviewed it), so I decied to give it a chance. The sound is exaclty what I was looking for for voice over and podcasting, somewhat bright but smooth and not lacking, the only issues I have with this mic is the self noise and the poping, the self noise is easily removed with a plugin and the poping is removed by using a sock (the deliverd pop filter makes the mic far, if u ever need proximity), still, this sock idea kind of dulls it somewhat, or maybe darken it a little bit. So all in all, I like it and might be very close to loving it.

Good quality

I bought an aftermarket boom arm for the mic, and hooked it up to my computer through my Focusrite Scarlet solo. Playing games with voice chat I can tell y'all I've gotten so many compliments on how crisp my mic sounds, and as I'm trying to get into music making, using a playback option/ listening back to my voice after recording a vocal track, It sounds just as good as you'd want a $500 microphone to sound. Add in some vocal editing, reverb, and maybe a bit of auto-tune, this microphone can and ABSOLUTELY WILL sound as good and BETTER than microphones over $1k. Watch the YouTube videos, the proof's in the pudding.

This is my first studio mic but I read a lot of reviews before purchasing. Never experiencing a studio mic before, I noticed that when I listen through my mixer and not the PC, I can hear things like my fingers moving on the desk. This mic pics up a lot of things with my headset that my ears don't even pick up. I use this for recording my voice for music but also to chat with my friends. Everything sounds great on my end, my friends say that it sounds like I'm in a box. This could also be because of how sensitive this mic is and I don't have any sound proofing, which is my next step. So that's not necessarily a ding on the mic but my setup. Overall, I love this mic but I wish I had exposure to other mics so I could give a better review based on other products.

I'm a musician, and while I’m not as picky as a dedicated audio producer, it’s rare for me to really like a cheap microphone. But this one I really like, and it comes with a lot of accessories. Basically, you’ll only need to get a stand; the rest is just assembling things and you're good to go. It comes with a shock mount, which is essential for condenser mics, a pop filter, a connection cable, and of course, the mic itself. I wish I’d seen this one earlier! When I bought my Audio-Technica AT2020, it was such a hassle to find a compatible shock mount. I even had to buy the pop filter and XLR cable separately. Note: You’ll need a phantom power connection, otherwise, the mic won’t work. I personally use the Audient EVO 8, and both work great together.
