ApogeeMic Plus USB-Mikrofon

Para grabar en Garage Band excelente

I’ve learned my lesson. I went cheap twice and both mics were failures. Now I bought this (at a price of the two cheaper ones put together) and it is perfect. Easy set up, no fuss, great sound.You get what you pay for.

Je l'utilise pour mon studio maison avec mon iPad Air et je suis entièrement satisfait!

Some other voiceover actors I know recommended this mic, including some instructors at Kalmenson, so I bought it a few months ago to have a small but excellent quality mic for portable use. I use it with my iPhone 5S and my MacBook.Happy!! It's a great little mic. I have a "deep movie trailer" voice, and this mic is great for that, comparable to my AKG or Schoeps. Today, I used it for a video ecocast on-camera audition shot on iPhone. The mic was clamped to the tripod with the iPhone, and I was 3'-6' away — the sound was clean and tight, and required nothing in post for cleanup. In fact I was able to send in the audition as recorded on the iPhone & the Apogee mic with no alterations or post fixing whatsoever.Just for the record, I've been a sound professional since the early 1980s. I own a dozen mics, including Sennheiser (816 & 416), Schoeps (MK41), AKG, etc. This apogee mic fits in well with them, both in sound and build quality.Apogee mic general notes:Good:1) Heavy for the size, and very solid in construction. Excellent build quality.2) Easy to use with all the USB/Lightning cables you might need.3) Great sound, comparable to other high quality mics.4) Quiet low noise preamp, low self noise, clean output.5) Built in headphone jack allows latency free monitoring.Neither good nor bad:6) The separately available fitted case is a must have, though it does not hold my third party pop screen. It does hold the mic well protected, the mini stand, and the accessory cables.7) Not a fault of the mic - some apps like Audacity you need to make sure the mic is selected, as Audacity does not necessarily use the system selected mic.Weak:8) I wish it had a rolloff filter. I use the mic very close for some things, and I get a little too much bass as a result, as is true of most any cardioid mic.9) The mini mic stand is just wonky, and not a good complement to such a nice mic.10) IMO the mic should come with at least a foam windscreen, but it doesn't. I use a third party nylon type screen that's okay. Pop sensitivity is like most medium to large diaphragm mics, so some sort of screen is useful for close mic-ing.11) Package does not come "factory sealed" so you won't know if it was opened — weird. I know Apogee wants to be "green" and not use unnecessary packaging, but really guys you need to have a tamper-evident seal on the box!In short, I'm really happy to have a mic this good that is plug and play with my iPhone or MacBook. To be honest, even at home I'll more likely use this with my MacBook for a quick audition than fire up the whole studio.

Très bonne qualité
