| "Certainly, no one looking for a multiple-pattern response and working on a tight budget can afford to ignore it" - Music Tech Magazine, 2004 "It's pretty amazing to find a mic that has an expansive feature set like this one, that sounds great (and I mean really great - there are few mics I have found that can compare, even ones costing nearly US$3000) and doesn't break the bank" - Recording Magazine, 2004 Product Manual Datasheet/Specifications |
