Very nice review! Detailed but still to the point. I appreciate this so much!
I'm glad you enjoyed! 😀
As a voice over person, just from an audio perspective only, how do the different mics like a handheld mic, compare to a headset?
I just got my Countryman and have been sorely disappointed with the audio quality. There is a constant "snow/white noise" in the background and my voice sounds comparatively underwater or like I'm sick compared to my cardioid.
@@AishawithanEye sounds like it has alot of self noise.
Hello, thanks for a good video. Im considering to buy the E6 and plan to connect it to the DJI mic single transmitter with a minijack input, and then record the sound straight into that, with no output of the sound. So, I wonder if this is possible with the Countryman, or does it require phantom power? Thanks
It does not require phantom power so it should work
@@djlouparis Thanks for quick reply 🙏
Sounds like the Countryman has a nice cut around 250hz. That's where the "annoying" part of most male voices is. Cut 250hz 8-10db on your Sennheiser and you'll have nearly identical mics.
Some of that is from the CM, some from my equalization for basic ring-out. I actually do have a similar EQ setting to closely match the CM, but I wanted to show what I felt were the best performances form each piece.
This was a very nice, detailed review.
I am helping a speaker who prefers not to wear a headset . Is there a good lavalier that you would recommend instead? Thanks!
L O F E N O I A L O F absolutely. The Countryman b3, b6, and the Sennheiser MKE2 Gold are great options. I now have the MKE2 Gold in my arsenal for micing the couple and it’s an exceptional mic.
ME 2 has more treble
This would have been more helpful if we were hearing direct audio, rather than the sound of the mics through another mic in a small room. So really most of what I hear are the acoustics of the room.
I did a recording both as a from-the-source (first part of the video 3:07) and then from-the-speaker (second part of the video 4:38) since for most DJs not only is it sound capture but then replication through another audio source.
