This mic sounds wonderful, with very low self-noise. I used it briefly for tracking Classical Harp Guitar, and it sounds warm, beautifully detailed and very musical. This would also make a great center channel for M/S recording, as you can get in closer than you can with the cardioid. I really don't want to sell this mic, but must do so to pay for some other gear.

SOUND FILES:
Here are some quick, 1-take MP3 sound files showing how the mic sounds through a Presonus ADL 600 preamp into a Rosetta 200 A/D converter. No EQ or effects.
