Review: My Favorite MXL So Far for Both Looks and Sound - I have used a couple of different MXL microphones, but this one stands out as my favorite so far. Aesthetically, I like it the most, and it also sounds the best to me. What really stands out is the way it captures my voice. It has that natural MXL character I already liked from other models, but this one gives my voice a little more punch and presence while still sounding smooth. It makes recordings feel more alive without sounding harsh or forced. The design is also a big part of the appeal. It looks great on the desk, and the red lighting gives it a distinctive style without feeling overdone. Overall, this has been my favorite MXL microphone that I have used so far, both in how it looks and in how it sounds.
Review: Get Condensed - It condenses. It listens to my problems, and is pretty attractive. Even the packaging is nice (they give you a sweet MXL sticker). Something about the menacing red glow is actually quite calming, and mine, and my girlfriend's voice come through quite clear when recording videos for YouTube. This is your entry level XLR that does the job right. Reverse preface: I'm not ad-vanced enough to get in to the nuances of why my previous SHURE mic was "better" in the eyes of critics, or why a Rode ABCDEF can condenser better highers/lowers. This is a layman's review. I just love music, and media. Ease of setup, Durability (is thick), Compatibility with most DAWS/Interfaces that support XLR. See pictures for detailed explanation of how to plug it in.
