Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
The sound quality was amazing, i mean pristine. I would add a 1300 dolar mic shock mount not some cheap made junk. I spent 11 months savings to fight with a stupid mount. I have owned 2 of these so They both have the same problem
Ease of Use
How easy is this product to use? How easy is the product to use with other products? Did it take long for you to learn to use this product? Was the manual helpful? How playable do you consider this product to be?
I have been a Engineer for a few years, a berklee school of music grad and a professional songwriter, so I am super familiar with Neumann products. I was shocked at how cheaply made the shock mount was. I saved for 11 months for this mic and and while I was trying to sing in it, the shock mount kept sliping lower and lower. for a 1300 bucks I was shocked that the mounts were cheaper than a MXL or a Rode.
Sound
How is its Tone?
Beautiful warm tones. i recorded a mandolin and a banjo in a warm acoustic blend at the same time with a cheap presonus preamp and it was amazing
