Immobilier de Nice Dynamic Mic

This is a dynamic microphone. As such, it has a variety of uses, including studio use as well as for live sound. I would say that mostly this microphone is better for loud instruments. It has a onmidirectional cardioid pickup pattern which makes it a bit different than an SM57 (which is a standard dynamic mic). The microphone has a variety of applications, but I tend to prefer it for some instruments over others. In the studio, I tried it with snare drums and actually enjoyed it quite a bit. It is a bit brighter than the SM57, and has a little bit more clarity and character than those mics generally do. It definitely highlighted the crisp high end of the snare. I also used it on a guitar amp, and preferred that to both the SM57 and the Sennheiser 421.

OVERALL OPINION

This mic is a great investment for those looking to diversify their lineup of dynamic microphones, as it has characteristics that I find lacking in other dynamic mics. I think that for the price, this is a pretty reasonable buy, especially considering that you can probably find a used one at a great price. The frequency response is on the higher side of things but it's overall pretty balanced. Certainly there are many uses for this mic.

Because of the unique characteristics of this microphone, it might seem to have a strange character at first, but if you mix it the right way it can be a really interesting color in your pallette.

OVERALL OPINION

This mic is a great investment for those looking to diversify their lineup of dynamic microphones, as it has characteristics that I find lacking in other dynamic mics. It sometimes comes in a drum mic package from Electrovoice which is pretty decent for a low end drum kit package. I don't recommend every mic in that package to the extent that I do this one, though. I think that for the price, this is a pretty reasonable buy, especially considering that you can probably find a used one at a great price. The frequency response is on the higher side of things but it's overall pretty balanced. Certainly there are many uses for this mic.
