I bought this mic about 5 years ago to use on my 4-track recorder. It could be their system. So really the main culprit could be the system where you plug in the mic.The problem is the thing doesn't come with a manual so one would think it's plug and play. On vocals, it sounds a bit muddy, but what do you expect from a sub $[.]. The guitars were mic'ed through the amplifier at about an inch away from the speakers. mic. It works fine. Since I used mine through a 4-track recorder, I had a different setting where I had to turn a knob in order for me to use a microphone.
Close mic'ing a guitar amp sounds decent. I actually got great sound, but that's my opinion.As far as the other reviews, I'm not sure about the low gain problems. Clearly it's not.If you're wondering how it sounds, you can listen to a few songs I did back in 2005 using this little mic. The amplifier volume was at 45% because I had neighbors and I was recording at night.Here's the link: [.].Four of the songs used the Sony mic:- Won't Go Away- Homesick- Make Me Crawl- Spit In Your Lemon Lime
i was not impressed by this product at all. i thought since it was sony it would be good but clearly not.
This never worked for me on an amp or my computer. Don't waste your money.
This microphone (if that's what you wanna call it) has to be the absolute worse product I have ever purchased in my entire life. You literally have to physically touch the music with your mouth with both hands cuffed around it and even then you still cant barely hear a thing even with volume on full blast. BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. even if this item were a dollar I would say it isn't worth it.
Well, that wasn't good enough either. I bought it despite the warnings that the gain was very low. This mic needs a microphone pre-amp. But I figured it was because people were using it directly into a karaoke machine. I planned on using it in my computer. That being the case you could buy a better microphone with that money. In fact, the mic that came with Rock Band outperforms this and that's a TOY.
