Mojave MA-200 Review / Test (vs. C414, LM103, C100, U67)
HQ Audio Of Review: https://podcastage.com/rev/ma200
Today I review a tube mic from MOJAVE, the MA-200. This is a cardioid only condenser mic and it has a sound that seems fitting for modern pop with a clear mid section and airy top end. It is very sensitive to low end rumble and it picks up a lot of the room you're recording in so you'll need to be aware of that.
