Happy!! It's a great little mic. I have a "deep movie trailer" voice, and this mic is great for that, comparable to my AKG or Schoeps. Today, I used it for a video ecocast on-camera audition shot on iPhone. The mic was clamped to the tripod with the iPhone, and I was 3'-6' away — the sound was clean and tight, and required nothing in post for cleanup. In fact I was able to send in the audition as recorded on the iPhone & the Apogee mic with no alterations or post fixing whatsoever.
Just for the record, I've been a sound professional since the early 1980s. I own a dozen mics, including Sennheiser (816 & 416), Schoeps (MK41), AKG, etc. This apogee mic fits in well with them, both in sound and build quality.
Apogee mic general notes:
Good:
1) Heavy for the size, and very solid in construction. Excellent build quality.
2) Easy to use with all the USB/Lightning cables you might need.
3) Great sound, comparable to other high quality mics.
4) Quiet low noise preamp, low self noise, clean output.
5) Built in headphone jack allows latency free monitoring.
Neither good nor bad:
6) The separately available fitted case is a must have, though it does not hold my third party pop screen. It does hold the mic well protected, the mini stand, and the accessory cables.
7) Not a fault of the mic - some apps like Audacity you need to make sure the mic is selected, as Audacity does not necessarily use the system selected mic.
Weak:
8) I wish it had a rolloff filter. I use the mic very close for some things, and I get a little too much bass as a result, as is true of most any cardioid mic.
9) The mini mic stand is just wonky, and not a good complement to such a nice mic.
10) IMO the mic should come with at least a foam windscreen, but it doesn't. I use a third party nylon type screen that's okay. Pop sensitivity is like most medium to large diaphragm mics, so some sort of screen is useful for close mic-ing.
11) Package does not come "factory sealed" so you won't know if it was opened — weird. I know Apogee wants to be "green" and not use unnecessary packaging, but really guys you need to have a tamper-evident seal on the box!
In short, I'm really happy to have a mic this good that is plug and play with my iPhone or MacBook. To be honest, even at home I'll more likely use this with my MacBook for a quick audition than fire up the whole studio.
So I see this scroll across my feed. I look into it and it pretty much has the same internals as the yeti pro, but again apogee’s teaks here and there could be what I need to break away from the top end vocal squeeze
I am highly impressed! This mic competes with my 1000$ mic and it’s plug and play on multiple devices!
This review is for in the box studio producers who want to get vocals crisp and clear and have headroom for vocal mix downs!
This mic is PERFECT! Easy to use easy to connect and gives you RAW vocal capabilities like your expensive mic without the DA converter. It’s all in one!
The positives: EVERYTHING can’t say enough
The negatives: YOU NEED A LOUD HEADPHONE AMP!! The headphone output is good even when utilizing my MAC audio midi app to increase the volume. But I had an old Mackie BigKnob and just ran the headphone out from the MiC PLUS to it and it’s as loud and clean as ever.
If your an artist looking for a nice mic to record without having to build an a tire studio, start here. This is the best USB mic for studio and MAJOR recording
Trust when I tell you that I have a major studio this mic has blown me away
