This Mic Rox

Seriously.. guitarist: throw away your sm57s and e906es... A new mic is in town.. this thing is amazing. I gigged last weekend and my sound was amazing.. i used both the outputs of the mic condenser and cardiod and mixed them on the board. I had the crowd on their feet all night and my band was blown away...

I am telling you.. don't think.. just buy it now.

You gotta try this on djembe!

If you can't decide whether to use a condenser or a dynamic mic, why not use both, so you can decide later? This option is the kind of thing that this mic make available to you. You can mix signals coming from the condenser and dynamic elements, without ever worrying if either one is hurting the signal more than it is helping.

This mic has a different sound from the d112 (which i also love). Not better, not worse, just different.

An AE2500 for 200 hundred less?

I've recently been A/B'ing this mic my AE2500 and while the AE2500 has a little more sub sonic push to it, this mic can acheive nearly the same results with just a little eq and you save 200 bucks. Actually if you're looking for a mic with more low-low mid punch and a little better top end snap you may prefer this guy.

Our Customers Say...

“My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.”
