| I just received one and played around with it for a few hours last night. I think it's reasonably priced for what it is. Maybe a tad expensive, but not outrageously so if you take street price into account.
You have to be careful--you can kill ALL the room sound and over-deaden the mic. It's sensitive to mic placement, so you have to experiment moving the mic (on the bar) back and forth. I agree that the bar that holds the mic may be the least effectively engineered part. I might try to find a way to get rid of most everything but the filter itself, and attach the filter to a separate mic stand.
On acoustic guitar, it was a toss-up: filter or no filter. Depends on SDC or LDC, too. On vocals I think I preferred the track with the filter. Made the vocals more forward and present. |
