Im a singer that sings oldies tribute shows. Rat Pack, Engelbert, Tom Jones Doowop etc. I just got the wireless 8c capsule. I’ve been using the beta 87a and love it. But this gives me the upper and mid clarity of the 87 with the “warmth” of a dymanjc mic. And I find I’m using less eq, as advertised. I’m loving this mic and would recommend it highly.

Great review, knowing the value of audio will only make the choice for this product easier.

[@Animetrix-WAV]

what a beast of a singer.

[@vincebrocato7549]

Confused as to S or C mic for me. Live stage performance with tracks or Live?

[@ericecho]

The 8s also had more stage rejection on the isolated track

[@biot_travel]

i actually thought the 8C sounded better than the 8S 😐 especially when the vocal was reverberating or hanging on words - probably depends on what you like to hear (as everything with audio)

​ brother pls answer my question that if rolling shutter speed is 20ms and shutter speed is 1/16sec(62ms) so brother frame has information bw 0 to 20ms brother am I right ? Thanks for your help

The 58 sounds like cardboard by comparison...

[@jakubpodesva9802]

Ufff, I don't know, listening on my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro and I can hardly hear anything better with both new mics :-/ Huge proximity "bumph" still here with every T and even W and S (???) and the singer is not even close to mic and is not singing P,B and another REALY problematic plosives. Voice sounded distorted in some parts but it sounded almost like it was peaking in recorder/interface..? It would also be helpful if there were same passages of the song with different mics cause when the vocal and piano is changing with the mics it makes everything even more hard do differentiate. Bleed from monitors was bit better with supercardioid model but as far as the monitors were set in that angle you shown us and were not changed for SC and C models, it is fairly logical - while this angled 2 monitor setup is aimed to dead places of SC pattern, it should be right behind the axis of Cardioid pattern, otherwise it is firing right to the sides where the mic is still somehow sensitive which made the whole thing even more unfair (as well as some people still placing monitor in axis with Beta 58A and wondering why they have feedback...). I don't know guys, but this review TO ME was useful only with technical stuff (which i found really interesting) but the "sound test" could have been done better in my opinion. I am very sorry for criticism and thank you for the video anyway!

As technology gets better quality sound will be cheaper

I have a podcast with a $12 dollar headset

[@atleengelstad5303]

This is maybe a great microphone, but I am feeling I am watching an ad.... sorry to say that....
