I purchased this mic because i was on tight budget and could not find any other good brand mic in this range.Its Very versatile mics it has 3 polar patterns,HP filter And Pad Switch,it helped me to record vocals,instruments like acoustic guitar,flute etc.with great details.Its Well build and comes with a Sturdy flight case which was like icing on cake because now i don't have to spend on storage case.Overall,i find its quality very decent for its price,but note that its An XLR mic so requires additional audio interface.I will recommend this mic to every beginner home studio owner as first mic and it will not disappoint you.with mixing and mastering you can get 80% of the pro sound from it.
