MXL Vocal Dynamic Microphone, XLR to 1/4-Inch, Green LSM-9 POP

This is a solidly constructed microphone. It feels as good as a Shure SM58 and it's contemporaries.Unfortunately, it sounds nothing like one. The sound really leaves a lot to be desired. Compared to similar professional microphones the sound is thin like an AM radio, completely lacks bass, and is unacceptably prone to plosives. There's barely any windscreen foam inside of the grill at all - It's problematic because any breath noise makes the microphone sound like it's clipping/distorting. It reminds me of a cheap gaming headset.Using a foam windscreen on the outside of the microphone does solve this issue, however the weak/thin sound compared to microphones such as Shure and Sennheiser make it hard to recommend. It sounds like a toy with zero depth/warmth while sitting at a reduced volume.Aesthetically it's perfect, however. I love the look of this thing. It's awesome. Functionally... why? Why couldn't they put a quality capsule in here and slightly more foam? Considering the price is comparable to other workhorse microphones there's no excuse to cheap out. So close...

The quality of the microphone is sufficient and on par with the likes of Behringer. It is a rugged and we'll built mic, but with a REALLY vibrant color. Perfect for those who need quality and color. :-)

Sound Quality is superb!!! I super loved the colors that why I got the 4 of them. I have a girl group band and they look perfect!!
