CAD GXL2200 Cardioid Polar Pattern Condenser Microphone

Superb bit of kit. Perfect for my voice. Might not be for someone else. That's usually how it goes with microphones. Try before you buying. Thank you

I upgrade from a decent $20 dynamic mic bought off amazon a year ago to this CAD Condensor mic, and i have to say i noticed the difference instantly. The mixer i'm using is a Behringer QX1202usb with 48v phantom power(require for.this mic) and with the old dynamic Mic had a hum in the background. When i plugged this phatom powered condensor mic in i was pleased that the hum was now gone. I guess thats what happens when you spend alittle more money for a half decent mic. My voice sounds great on my podcast with no static or humming behind my voice. One warning for amature podcasters, beware this mic is sensative! It easily picks up tv or radio or fan or other background noises. You will need a quiet enviroment. However this is a plus if you have a desk stand like i do and don't feel like always leaning forward to speak. Your mouth can be 12 to 18 inches away and this will pick you up just fine. One word on the mount...it fits the mic well for rights side mounting, not sure how you could hang the mic from a boom using the cradle, however if your 5/8" boom/mic stand's mount is right side up it will work just fine. Im using the same desk top mic stand i had my dynamic mic clipped to. I like this mic so much i bought two extra's for my co-host and for when i have guests on my podcast.

RODE NT1-Aをｽﾀｼﾞｵで使ったことがありますが、 いろんなレヴューにあるとおりドンシャリでした。 VoRECだとそんなに気になりませんが、 アコギだと少し、中音が抜けているのが気になります。 このマイクでアコギを録ると、 それなりに中音も出てくれます。 全域が気持ちよく出てくれる感じですかね。 VoRECではNT1－Aの方が好きかもしれません。 大体同じ価格帯（値下げ＋NT1-A以外）のべリンガーB-1も 試したいところです。 最初の一本には良い買い物でした！ しかし、ショックマウントのネジが緩んで、 閉められない状態に…。 構造的に振動に弱いようです。 工学系の学校卒なので、 自分で加工して直しました。 この点は改善が必要だと思います。 なので★４っつです！ 参考になれば…

Cad Gxl2200 Cardioid Condenser Microphone, Champagne I'am a Song composer as well as a singer. I use this great microphone for recording almost everything. with this mic i will say "made me sound like 'ME' " They have good 'presence' even if the sound source is as far as 2 feet away. This is just an all-around good mic with great sound for the cost. *Just be aware that this mic requires 48 volt 'phantom power' to operate. So you have to use something like an M-Audio USB prepay/interface or Scarlett audio interface so that it can provide the Phantom Power to the mic. This mic will NOT work with a portable tape recorder or a Public Address Amplifier without inserting a Phantom Power Supply in the line. Also, it comes with a shock mount for a reason. This is NOT intended to be a handheld microphone. It will pick up every thump, bump, and slide motion made by a person's hands. It NEEDS to mounted on a mic stand WITH the shock mount. Otherwise it will pick up vibrations from people walking on the floor. It is VERY sensitive. I can use it in my living room to record the wind chimes out on my front porch 40 feet away. As for vocals, it will give a good amount of base as well as the high frequencies (Frequency response: 30Hz to 20kHz Sensitivity: -36dBV (16mV) at 1 Pa). It has a cardioid polar pattern. I once recorded a friend playing piano, but before we could get started we had to shut off her refrigerator in the kitchen and unplug her electric clock because this mic could hear the clock motor humming (which we could not hear with our normal ears). I would say the quality is as good as the AT 2020 (AT 2020 is slightly better but keeping cost in mind!) The internal noise is very low because of a very good pre-amp (no need to add more gain in the audio interface) But if you want to pickup every nuance of an acoustic guitar being played .... THIS is the right mic for it! Note : It looks sexy in that Champagne finished body :D
