SAMSON SAC02 Pencil Condenser Microphone Pair

Product Information

One con to these microphones is that their capsules aren’t interchangeable, this makes them a lot less versatile since you can’t change their cardioid pattern to any other pattern you could need. The Rode M5 pair excels in the mid and high frequencies in my opinion, since it doesn’t sound shrill or add any harshness or crispiness to the sound while still sounding open and airy, which is why it works great with guitars, percussion (especially overheads), strings, woodwinds, brass, pianos, and other similar instruments, as well as choirs.

Pair of microphones super-capacitors cardioid (side rejection of -10 dB to -6 dB miei for a cardioid microphone). Normal sensitivity (10 mV / Pa), a little noise High (22 dBA) compared to the standard but low enough that it can be understood that on low level sources in a soundproof recording studio, c ' is the same noise level as that of the best electret microphones very small capsules with CCA (4060, 4090) and Earthworks (QTC series). Nice finish. The cap is removable, but to my knowledge, Samson proposes no new capsule for now. Plastic box with foam containing the microphones mounted in their suspensions, the latter also being beautiful bills. -Given the price (I bought new € 119), I put 10/10. Difficult as it may be to imagine, the name is based on its long cylindrical design. A bit like a pencil. They are Condenser mics that have a small diaphragm, by necessity, in this case, 12mm. Each mic is six inches long and about ¾-inch wide. There is a foam windscreen included. This might reduce wind noise if you are using them outside. In terms of reducing plosives from vocals, it doesn’t. You will still need a pop filter. But that applies to any mic in use in a studio environment.

They sound very flat and detailed, with no harshness at all. When recording with them you will be able to capture the true essence of the instruments.If you don’t care too much about the self-noise level, which isn’t really that high and you will probably never even notice it, then the Neewer NW-410 would be my top recommendation of microphones, along with the LyxPro SDPC-2, simply because you can’t beat the sound quality and extras you get for that price. The M5 includes 2 mics, so you may worry that your mics will sound off at some point. Not to worry, though, since they work within 1dB of each other. They are consistent and sound about the same. If you use them interchangeably, they shouldn’t have any problems. If I had to choose a pair to get for myself, I’d definitely go with the Samson C02’s since they cost about 2/3 of what the M5’s sell for and sound almost identical.

I would have thought that polar patterns and frequency response are more important. Wouldn’t they have greater control over bleed rather than the dynamic or condenser scenario? The Condenser advantageYou should get an instant answer on whether your application has been successful, though in some rare cases Klarna or V12 may need to look at the application in more detail. It has a -20dB PAD which will allow you to use it in high SPL situations withstanding up to 155dB SPL.

It has a low-mass capsule with its 12mm diaphragm and has the popular Cardioid polar pattern. In a studio environment, this can be a necessary design feature for any mic. Why do we say necessary? The M5 is one of the best small diaphragm condensers. If you’ve ever seen an NT5, it’s very similar to that, although it has some new features and improvements that make it unique. Specifically, you can rely on this mic for wide frequency response while having low noise and a low price point. The Samson C02 I'm not really a "small condenser" guy, though, so if you're someone who uses small condensers for 99% of your work, you may want to invest in a pair of Neumanns or Telefunkens. I mostly use ribbons and large diaphragm mics like 90% of the time, and I only pull out small condensers once in a while. Usually for acoustic guitar. These mics are perfect for someone like me, who just needs a utility mic with a very flat response without breaking the bank. I'd sooner break the bank for a LDC or nice drum cymbal. Anyways thats my rationale, and I'm sure there are plenty of others who feel the same way. The sound on the M5 is perfect for quieter instruments or large groups of people. You can use this mic to record vocals without a problem, and it works well with other low frequencies as well, including your drum kit and different loud sounds. These are small diaphragm condenser mics that cover frequencies from 20Hz to 20kHz, which is more than a decent range. This means that you can use them even for bass drum recording, as the low frequencies in drum bass start at around 20Hz.Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided. Just like the C-4, the Behringer C-2 is a great option for someone who is buying his first set of small-diaphragm condenser mics.

If the microphones acted differently your left and right channels would not sound the same, which could result in timbre anomalies between them, affecting the stereo image. Lastly, the Rode M5 doesn’t come with a PAD or a High-Pass filter, which is actually quite common in small diaphragm condenser microphones in this price range. How does it sound? The “switches” on the face of the mic aren’t really switches but rather indents that cannot be changed unless a sharp object is inserted into the holes where the “switches” should be.Piano recording: Samson CO2 I think this microphone is good in terms of what you get for the money. They sound great and don’t color the sound at all. Before you go out to buy your new mic, you must answer that question. The age-old argument and a subject that can cause controversy. But at the end of the day, it can often come down to what you want to use the mic for.
