🧵 … and the winner is…

I just quickly hooked these up to some #RME #OctaMic2 and talked into them while listening via headphones.

I'm not sure if I could tell the difference in an A/B blind test between the #Beyerdynamic #m201 and the #DSaudioservice #Addy2.

The Addy2 however has an integrated pop filter, while the M201 doesn't even come with a separate one.

Both mics are made in Germany. The Addy2 is handmade by #DieterSchoepf and more expensive. It provides a little higher output.

Off-axis rejection feels quite similar, and after all this is for me the most prominent reason to go for a #DynamicMic instead of a #CondenserMic: The stronger rejection of higher frequencies off-axis.

I need to check #recording some instruments flosting around here.

After this first quick test I'd say the Addy2 is more flexible because it is explicitely designed for vocals *and* instruments, while the M201 is instrument-only.
