Just the kind of review i was looking for. Lots of good information! Please do one like this but of exteral signal compressors :)

I was surprised by the amazing quality of the T-bone mike.

great comparison!

I like Mk4 by far the most because of its "round tone". I think it well be more easy for mixing the vocals because its less harsh than the other mics in the test.

As every time there is any reasonably well controlled test of decent microphones, the differences are so slight, you could easily compensate for any of these mics with less than 3db of eq in any given spot. We are spoiled for choice today. Pretty much anything above $200 is going to be great. The only reason to drop $5,000 on a microphone these days is for show.

for nuance, but also for a tight polar pattern response , a good off-axis sound, an (intended) coloration (sought-after non-linearity), something that's not necessarily "linear", but compliments the sound you're trying to capture :) there are enough reasons to buy an expensive mic. having that said, in many occasions you pay for a brand name. so instead of getting a high-end Neumann, try maybe a JZ, Lewitt, Austrian Audio - definitely 'up there' qualitywise, but being less know than Neumann / AKG etc., they are way more affordable.

Awesome, the Sennheiser seems perfect for me :)

FilippaQ no expert but coming from a film background I’ve always trusted sennheiser. My musician friends are always impressed if they’ve never used. It is one of those get what you pay for things tho.

quizas para ti para mi no voz hablada ROde CANTAR Se electronics

I have some Sennhiser equipment in my studio. but as for the mic specifically, it sounded very dull to me in the singing part. The mic that sounded more or less good for the singer was the rode, but for the voice over Audio technica was the best. Here's the thing. Not every mic suits every voice. For instance my main mic is a Charteroak sa538 tube mic. In most of the cases it works perfectly, but sometimes there are singers with thin voice that sound a little bit dull with the mic. so I have to do more eq-ing to solve it out.

The last part of the video, I was able to tell the difference. They are all good mics.

Nice test ! I see everyone has his favorite ;) I like the neutral and present breathing of the se Electronics because the gestion of the airflow is a must in the voice harmonics. Thanks.

It all depends on your use... I've always been a fan of both the t.bone and sE Electronics (Isn't the SC-450 a rebrand of the original SE 2000?). I use both for voice overs with very good results. I do prefer their bigger brothers the SC-1100 and SE Z3300a (now no longer produced), but any of these 5 microphones here are good value for money IMHO.

nice presentation. tell me, what brand of microphone stand was used in this video

The Rode NT-1 is beter than the NT-1A IMO. I preferred the MK4 in all the tests for this video. I'm sure there would be scenarios where the other mics would be 'best' too.

I don't have very good ears and I'm no expert, but the Sennheiser Mk4 seemed the "smoothest" overall to me. The NT1A showed a little bit of harshness in the higher notes. What do you think?

And this, Ladies and Gentlemen, is a clean, perfect sample of a strong german accent. 😏 I got to know, as I sometimes suffer from it myself, If I have a bad day, tho maybe not as strong. 😅 nice listening samples and well explained. In this price Range, I’d go with the RØDE NT1, I guess. (Not the NT1A!)

I used to have a Mk4, which I got many years ago when amazon were knocking them out cheap.... until I loaned it to my old singer and have never seen it again since. The man's a bloody magpie, LOLZ

Wow I can't handle that singers voice

Sennheiser MK4 Recording fat & Warm Sound,MK4 Realy amazing

Nice video! The t bone and the SE electronics sounded a bit duller to my ears. The audio technical and the Rohde are the winners for me. But the differences were not overwhelmingly large.

At4040 amazing !

Meeeh i feel the se2200a and mk4 more

5, 1,4,3,2 for oscar in this test but de ess

what the hell was all that background noise when singing on the Rode Nt1 a? Probably something went wrong with the cables, how was this not noticed lol

The Mk4 is awesome for the price.

That "falsetto" though hahaha

The senheiser just beats the se in my opinion but theres hardly anything in it I own the Se myself and wouldnt change it

I’m in the USA but I’m holding back purchasing from thomann because the prices seem suspiciously cheap to me. The Kawai mp11 in the US is 2800$ while I’m thomann it’s under 1900$ right now. Why so much cheaper?

im so grateful to u guys for this video. results are: 2200a and MK4 just terrible, nt1a - 3rd place - not bad, at4040 - good, sc450 - cleanest, of them, have least distortions in sound

0:40 rode 4:12 t-bone

why was the host not speaking directly into the microphones? he kept sitting down and was not standing to get the sound of voice into the mic, which resulted in an airy sound. he did not use those microphones properly at all.

2:40 5:23

Se Electronics is the best for singing.

The T bone sounds ao good and or course it has to be german.... hmm

I only hear the room, not the mics.

Great video! Check out our mic comparison shootout. ​@​

I don't hear a difference for any of this microphone singing

Maybe don’t talk inbetween comparisons, kinda defeats the purpose. Unless you like to hear youself talk.
