Thanks for the review. The AT sounds much better I think, but it would have been better to hear them side by side, not with you talking in-between on a third mic. Anyway. I just picked a 6040 up a few days ago, it was about EUR 70. I was a bit afraid it would be money down the drain, but calmed myself saying that the accessories in the pack are worth 50 or so at least :) But honestly, it is quite a usable mic, especially with some EQ. It is not on par with my Sennheiser MKE600, or even the Rode Videomic NTG, but, I like the size when boomed in my not too tall room, and probably cardioid picks up a bit less echo from the concrete ceiling than my Sennheiser.

A very cool comparison. Today (August 2024) the Audio-Technica is cheaper than the Boya. What about outdoor recording? Which of the two microphones rejects sounds coming from the sides and back more? Thanks!

Which one is better in your opinion?

[@overtimeeditor]

I ended up using the Boya. The differences were small enough where the post-processing result is basically identical.

@@overtimeeditor without post processing, which one is is better?

[@overtimeeditor]

@ngocehgayabebas2118 Then I’d go Audio Technica - for voice at least. It seemed to have better raw clarity
