Review: Solid vocal mic - I'm using this mic with a simple XLR to
USB adapter for online meetings instead of the built in mic on my
webcam. It has made a huge difference and I've had comments about
my good audio quality. This is not a super high-end mic for
recording applications, but for online meetings, it is excellent
and the quality is way better than a webcam mic. I chose the 845
over the 835 because of the super cardioid pattern which I
thought would be a bit better at rejecting sound from the room,
or from the computer speakers, focusing just on my voice. Also, I
found that this version, the one with the switch, was a bit
cheaper so even though I really don't need the switch, I saved a
few dollars. For my application, online meetings, there's no need
to get a more expensive microphone. This has super high
durability great audio quality at an affordable price. PROS: *
"Built like a tank" * Super cardioid pattern great for off-axis
rejection like room noise or computer speakers * Understated look
CONS: * Not a super high-end microphone but great for basic vocal
applications I've used many microphones for multiple applications
over the years. I was tempted to buy a much more expensive
microphone for my online meetings, but realized that no one would
notice the difference between an $80 mic and a $500 mic, so I
decided to go with a tried and true basic workhorse. The look of
this mic is understated and not distracting. This was a perfect
purchase for my use case and is working quite well.
Review: Excellent build quality & performance - I just received
the Sennheiser e845S microphone. My decision to purchase it was
based upon my experience and use of a Sennheiser e835 microphone
I've been using for about 2 years. I'll start with the build
quality. Sennheiser makes a good looking, solid product that
stands up well to regular use. The weight, feel and balance in my
hands is just what I want in a vocal mic. It compares equally or
even slightly better than a Shure SM57 or SM58. I have used both
Shure products side-by-side with the Sennheiser and find that the
overall tone and voice reproduction of the Sennheiser is clearer
and replicates my nuanced inflections more naturally. I wanted an
on/off switch and the e845S fits that requirement. The switch is
large, ergonomically correct, and does not emit a noise when
switching it on or off. Now that my music journey is beginning to
take shape, the addition of a second vocal microphone is needed.
I play harmonica mostly and have specific mics for them, however,
I often like to play through a vocal microphone for a purer,
melodic sound at times. Both of my Sennheiser microphones work
well, are simple to use, durable like a tank and look
outstanding.
