Try recording guitars with this. Certainly the different screens work as described and the clarity is good. I actually expected them to be a lot brighter, like the SM57 for example, but they definitely sound darker, which is perfectly normal unless you already have pricier mics that deliver that kind of low/mid warmth. about recording vocals, that's next. I will then update. That being said I think they are putting $$ money aside and I will keep it and use it wherever it can be useful.
