Overall: Condenser mics can get quite expensive, and I was hesitant to try this one because of the low price. However, having just finished a 3 hour session using it for recording guitar and flute, I found it to be very faithful in capturing the sound as it was heard in the room. The post production took very little tweaking because of the pure signals that I was fortunate to work with as a result of using this mic.
