ENG Mic: ElectroVoice RE50 N/D Demo

[Chadfish]

If anyone is interested in getting an RE50 or RE50 N/D for a hand held interview mic, I have made a little demo video. When I was searching on line I couldn't find any demos, though you can see them on the news. I don't see them on MY news because I live in the sticks. So I just made a very casual demo that also compared the mic to a Peavey PVM 38i (SM58 clone) and a Sure SM57.

At first I found it too bright for my taste, but I think in context it will be just fine. I'm used to the hyped bass from proximity effect on vocal mics you have to eat when performing on stage.

Chad if you're going to try to be fair in comparisons
I suggest you bypass the G3 wireless and do the tests hardwired.


edit: I didn't get quite that far into the vid since I already own that mic.

I tested all 3 mics with the wireless, then again at the end wired. My reasoning for doing the test wireless is because that's how the mic will be used in my applications. The mic did sound better at the end when it was wired.
