Dayton Audio EMM-6 Precision Omnidirectional Electret Condenser Microphone for Room Acoustic Analyzers and Audio Measurement Systems, Calibration Data File with Response Graph Included

Most disappointed after having waited 3 weeks for delivery to unbox a damaged microphone. The opening for the XLR plug is dented enough that the plug cannot connect (this is a calibrated precision instrument and even if the plug could be made to fit, I would no longer trust it to be within specification). The packaging is fine so either the microphone isn’t new or the damage must have been present when packaged. Amazon say they can’t replace it, they can only refund, but they could sell me another for 80% more than I paid for this one!

I use this mic with RME FF400 to make measurements with Audiolense. It comes with a calibration file that is a real advantage for such a price range. The sensitivity is good and works well with phantom power as intended. Got good measurements that translated to great sounding filters. for ~70$ you will be hard pressed to find a measurement mic with a calibration file. This is a great VFM.

The frequency response of this microphone is not flat; the high end is anything but flat. The microphone itself is worth about $20 to me, and the case is worth anther $5. Most of the value is derived from the provided measurement / calibration. The microphone does come with a calibration paper, with the printed curve on it, and there's a with a way to download the calibration file from the Internet. It didn't come with a USB drive copy of that file though, so you'll need to do that yourself for backup purposes. The confidence in how accurate it all is is taken on trust, but it's at least reasonably accurate based on using it to test my existing microphone collection, like with my Shure mics. I do mostly trust the provided response curve profile, but more could be done by the company to offer transparency into the testing process, error tolerances, and ways to confirm its working correctly, etc. I really do wish the microphone I got was more flat, as mine seems pretty seriously not-flat, but I guess that doesn't matter too much if you're using the calibration file. It just would be nice to not have to do that.

El producto llegó antes de lo planeado, y funciona para lo que lo requerí. Excelente para las mediciones de estudios pequeños.
