I have wanted to own this model of microphone for a long time, as it has good reviews and is used by many professionals. However, I am disappointed. I have found it needs a lot of gain to work, and my Focusrite USB interface 2i4 does not have enough to give a high enough DB recording level, even with gain and record level in my DAW software at maximum. If I amplify the recorded sound in the DAW, +14 DB is required, and the quality is awful. I have ordered a microphone pre amp, which will hopefully fix this problem, but if not the money I spent on that and the microphone will have been wasted :( On the positive side, the microphone build quality is very good and it is certainly not a lightweight. It comes with 2 foam windshields which is good. Until i get the pre amp I do not know how effective these are for plosives. It is a shame it is not supplied with an XLR cable. Read full review
