![Best $100 Vocal Microphones [Condenser Mic Shootout - AKG, MXL, SE Electronics]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/UJUtJy0e8io/mqdefault.jpg)
The Marantz is amazing, can't get a better mic for that price.
any chance you guys can start demoing the mics on amps, guitars etc, too? that'd be sweet.
“That girl is on fire”! Well done folks! Cheers 😋
What a voice! I'm listening via an extended soundbox (Focusrite) through a reasonable good headphone but I do not hear any difference to be honest.
I hear a clear difference between the three microphones via studio monitors.
@@Texturas75 What's better?
I'm not that music knowledgeable when it comes to sounds but I am using 7 dollar earbuds into my gaming pc that are using the z390ud motherboard and I can hear a difference. Out of the 3 SE X1 had the best sound quality, after it the p120 and on last place mpm 1000. The jump from mpm 1000 to the p120/se x1 were the biggest jump. I don't know if the reasons to why I think they sounded better is correct but to me It sounded like the p120 and se x1 had less clipping/distortion which made it sounding cleaner/better sound quality with other words. I also heard more details in them (like a picture with higher contrast, it feelt more separated so that you can hear the details) than the mpm 1000 and her voice were more clear with them. The difference between the p120 and the se x1 were the same as I said above about the mpm 1000 but it was much smaller. I also think that there was some compression in the mpm 1000.
I also hear some reverb in the p120 and sE x1
I'm the first one to mention if something sounds fantastic, similar, or night and day. Like many of the others comments... NO DIFFERENCE... THE folks in the video mentioned as the price went up so does the sound quality. I think that's probably due to the fact they are in studio and not listening to them over the computer, or phone.
Anytime I'm looking to spend $¢$ on something that produces sound always been a better choice in person. That still doesn't take away from hearing what the folks on UA-cam are saying.
Thank you for the great demonstration.
She has an amazing voice.
First of all she has a beautiful voice. But yes as you heard that Marantz was quite impressive. I bought one for my narration of my videos now of course it’s only speaking not singing. I had a Neewer NW800 to the marantz and it was a good step up
Hey, since there aren't a lot of comments here: Great job guys, really well presented :)
CamRebires cheers dude! Be sure to subscribe for more content. Thanks for watching - Brad
@@AndertonsMusicTechDept I am a singer and having a non-treated room. Which mic do you suggest from the list below:
1. Lewitt 240 Pro
2. AKG P120 or P220
3. Se Selectronics xA1
I got a pair of sE Magneto for 90€ (~£80), I am susprised by the quality of that mic. It is similar to the x1, but with a smaller capsule (16mm) but without any switches. I guess I could recommend that if you liked the sound of the sE.
not only she has a very good voice, she has perfect calves too.
I like MPM-1000 most, and what a surprise it is the most affordable one.
I can't believe the P120 sounded best in this video (imo). It sounded clear and had a nice top end and sounded less harsh than X1. The marantz had this cool low mid thing but yeah quite surprised by the P120.
Akg sounds best to my ear. All sound diffrent. 3rd one is a little harsh.
Marantz win! 😃
Amazing micro)
i know this is an old video, but if you could do mic demos with a strum of an electric guitar and an acoustic, and may be bash a 3 piece kit too... that'd be sooooo so helpful
Clipping just a little bit :/ or maybe youtube distorts the audio. But there is definitely some difference between these mics. Even though all of them are nice for the price! My champion is the AKG though. Nice video :)

Dynamic is better for untreated room.
sE V7 or SM7B
akg p120 win
Each mic has different sounds, personally The AKG is the most complete of them 3 ! first one has that hiss harsh sound with the sSss , and the last one has more output gain , the akg overall has no harsh what so ever and soun pretty clear
Surprised you guys didn't have the audio-technica a2020 in this. great sounding mic for not alot of money
check the mic test akg p120 vs 2020, 2020 sounds like shit around 120
Good morning sir
I want to record my poetry at home and I want studio quality. My room is not sound proof.I am not getting good advice from anyone. Some say take dynamic microphone and some say condenser microphone. Please tell me which mic and audio interface should I buy? After buying which I do not have any regrets.
i liked the akg the marantz sounded a bit harsh
I want to buy the se! Great voice btw
Hello, I have a question. I am thinking of acquiring a microphone, but I don't know which one is better. In my options are Stellar x2, Se2200, Akg p120 and the rode nt2a. (I have the audient id14 interface)
Thanks for you’re great videos!
i have akg p120 with rode ai its pretty good
Beautiful voice
The Marantz was a bit woofy compared to the other two. That can be EQ-ed to sound better, of course, but the P120 was much more balanced and I love the clarity of the sE X1. I wouldn't bother with the Marantz unless you're really strapped and like Meg said, if you want to lay some demos or whatever, it might be great as a super entry level mic. Either the P120 or the sE X1 would work for me as budget options.

The true test is when you hit it with compression
Please let me know
Rank it please
Which is the best for singing
Akg p120 vs at2020 vs se x1a???
Which microphone is best for the vocals? Akg p120 or se electronics x1 a
Which one is better after all?
akg p120 vs at2020 vs se electronics x1a? Which is the best for baritone voice a little dark?
V helpful thanks!
Please guys do you recommend se electronics x1 a over audio technica at2020?
Wait you called it the AKG project studio 120 but its called the AKG perception 120🙃
AKG 120...
👌👌
Can someone please tell me what mic isolation thing they are using? I know it's a portable isolation thing but what brand or name
Davian Bailey it comes with the aston origin mic
What model windscreen you using? I'll avoid it. I could hear too much noise through it.
AKG P120 or AT2020..? please🙏🏻
At2020
3:04 [Insert subtitle boner joke here]
I saw this cuz I wanted to see reviews on tommyinnit’s mic
They all sound the same lol
Nope buddy you are not listening careful enough the thing is that it will only matter when you mix it , when you boost the highs on the same record by three mics they will be different .
Stocking fillers. Another rich kid !
Who's the girl? She's hot :-p
these are horrible mics
"cheap microphones"
