Comments about Audio-Technica AE5400 Cardioid Capacitor Microphone:
I am a worship leader/ singer/ songwriter and have been singing and making music my entire life. When I purchased this mic, I expected it to be major steps up as far as sound quality....let me just say... I had absolutely no idea what I was in for!!! Without exaggerating...This mic literally changed the way my brain perceives quality... If you are going to be performing for people, you will not be able to make a better decision than BUYING THIS MIC!!! It simply does not get any better than this. I was a little apprehensive spending this kind of money on something I had never tested, but Musicians Friend has an awesome 45 satisfaction guarantee... however, in this case... They are not getting this baby back unless they pry it out of my cold dead hands!
Comments about Audio-Technica AE5400 Cardioid Capacitor Microphone:
This is the real thing; a true studio recording mic built into a hand-held format. It cuts through the mix and is everything the manufacturer described. I'm a classically trained tenor with a 3 octave range. I saw Andrea Bocelli using this mic on his "Under the Desert Sky" DVD. I think there's a good reason he chose to use it. I own this mic and the Neumann kms 105. I like both equally, this mic is a little brighter in sound and hotter than the Neumann. Both produce a very nice warm sound. Comparatively the Neumann is not better sounding; and at almost double the price it's not justified. Save your money and buy the AE 5400 instead! You'll sound great and you'll have more jingle in your pocket too. Keep on singing!!!!!
Comments about Audio-Technica AE5400 Cardioid Capacitor Microphone:
Having been an active vocalist for almost ten years, I would highly recommend this microphone to anyone looking for an upgrade. Prior to owning this mic I used a Shure SM58 for about seven years, but after that time I felt as though I was working too hard to get the nuance I wanted while playing. Also, during long gigs I found that my voice would show more fatigue as I began working to sing songs more musically with finer detail to inflection and other vocal effects. I purchased this mic after performing a side by side comparison with several Audix Mics, Shure Beta 87, and several Sennheiser products and to my ears this mic won easily. It provides a very clear and uncolored sound while maintaing a great deal of detail and presence. This mic very naturally cuts through a mix without sounding harsh, and therefore is probably better suited for a lead vocalist. I also am a co-owner for a small regional sound company and this is the mic that we always give to the artists that will use a wired mic. So far its worked for: Pure Prairie League, Mel McDaniel, and will soon be used by T Graham Brown, as well as several other lesser-known artists. I don't claim to be an expert on sound, but I feel that I probably know enough to tell most consumers that this is a great purchase, and if used properly this mic will provide years of service.
Comments about Audio-Technica AE5400 Cardioid Capacitor Microphone:
This mic is an amazing mic for live vocals. Tons of clean gain, crisp, clean sound that cuts through any mix. I've used it in many live settings and it has always gotten the job done. I've also used the wireless version of this mic, and it too is a great mic.
Comments about Audio-Technica AE5400 Cardioid Capacitor Microphone:
This mic sounds great but has too much gain. I bought a Shure Condensor, and another brand condensor. Of the 3, this is the hardest to use live due to it being so powerful. It's hard to control compared to the Shure condensor. Of the 3, the Shure condensor is the best.
Comments about Audio-Technica AE5400 Cardioid Capacitor Microphone:
This is a great vocal mic, especially on male voices. It cuts through the mix with incredible clarity and with little need for EQ. Any professional who likes the 4050 will love this mic.
Comments about Audio-Technica AE5400 Cardioid Capacitor Microphone:
