    MXL Mics Condenser Microphone, Midnight (MXL990MIDNIGHT)

    • Connected to my PC via XLR-to-USB, the sound quality is very clear and there is no background noise or static
    • Only issue is that at times it's TOO powerful and picks up a loooot of background noise, but that's no problem with proper post processing and gain control.
    • Of course a condenser mic is going to pic up much more background noise.
    • They pick up far too much noise -- they are really meant to be used in studio applications with heavily treated rooms that have no background noise.
    • If you leave it out, plan to protect it from abuse and being knocked around, as well as from accumulating dust and spit.
