I have one, and I love it. I get a great sound right out the gate. I've used different types of blanket and shields on the market and the eyeball knocked them all out the water. It will sound like you have a different mic but in a great way. More low end, controlled top end, extremely easier to eq. Get one!
@GaragebandandBeyond9 жыл бұрын
It's really not if you compare it to either one of those shield things or bunch of Acoustic foam. It's a lot cheaper than those 2 things and it does a better job than the shields for sure. But I do think it's worth it. If you struggle getting a good smooth warm vocal tone, this is the thing for you!

But this will not give you the best result without minor room treatment in general.

Teng Vang I've heard various tests done with it, and they all made the audio sound disgusting. In this case, it turned a beautiful airy microphone into something that sounds worse than a $30 microphone I bought on ebay for shits and giggles. The reason the eyeball does not work is because that foam junk only absorbs the treble, but not the bass, so the bass is just bouncing around in that ball, clogging up the sound entirely.

On the TLM the Eyeball ends up siting on top of the shock mount. It's surprisingly steady. But you're right the Eyeball is too big,m so the TLM cannot screw into it's shock mount anymore. However don't worry, you can still use the Eyeball perfectly well with the TLM!

I don't think professional recording studios would ever buy it because part of a good recording is the room and it's characteristics, and so great recording studios having great rooms, it'd kind of be a shame. But then again this is made for home studios that don't have awesome rooms so it's a nice way to get a dry sound to manipulate later. The price doesn't seem to be aimed to home studio guys though.

GaragebandandBeyond drcolosso Yes the CAD E100’s sounds great within the Eyeball. The only thing that's not compatible is the rear bracket. Instead, we recommend using a standard shock mount (just grab one off of any other mic lying around). The Eyeball will hold your E100 elastically inside and then you can simply sit the Eyeball along with your microphone on top of your standard shock mount. Check out our FAQ kaoticaeyeball.com/faq for an example using a similar mic..
