Full Brass Band Instruments

This is a work horse mic used by every sound engineer to record any type of instruments:brass, percussion, etc.

I use this mic to record string and wind (brass mostly) instruments.  The different patterns make it effective in a variety of spaces depending on whether you want to reject other sounds or include reflections.  Versatile and great sound quality.

Sounds great for vocals, but you can use them in a lot of different things, I even use the for violins in a mariachi band. Also for brass.

This came in full brass construction, and the angle touch on the handle is fabulous.

Love it! Full sound, amazing bass, mids and highs. The spatial clarity between instruments is excellent at both high and low volumes.

Easy to use. Sounds great. Full sound with clear distinction between voice, instruments, and bass.

Every working photographer with a light stand (or 6) needs a pocket full of these Smith-Victor Brass Adapters (1/4 and 3/8 Female). Highly recommended.

Great for Vocal and Instruments!

I purchased this because the reviews on a similar unit from Ubiquiti were not so great. I mounted this on my roof (vent pipe) fed by some outdoor Cat5e, and it covers my 5 acre property with no issues, -72dBm on 2.4 GHz. band out at 500 ft. maxing out at 65 mb/s.(20MHz. wide channel). It's full speed on 5 GHz. within 350ft., dropping to 96 Mb/s. at 450 ft. It's a top speed performer for a 2x2 Mimo unit. I have one antenna horizontally polarized and one vertically polarized (using white electrical tape at the antenna base to keep them from turning in the wind), for some diversity and less sensitive to phone position placement. It was 100deg.F. here the other day and no issues with the unit at full power all day. It's signal penetrates into the house and into the basement with no issues at all. I like the fact that is has two independent 2.4 and 5GHz. radios and each are able to have their own set of multiple SSID's. You can put your guest network on either band and IP isolate an SSID for security purposes if not running VLANS. It also has guest webpage authentication options including through Facebook. Note: With my iPhone I had issues with the AP on 2.4 CH. 11 (clear channel too) but not an Android, so I parked it on CH. 1. I primarily use the 5 GHz. band anyway as the speed and distance on this unit are really good. TP Link did a great job with this, best deal out there. Upgrade to the latest firmware as soon as you get it.

Our high school room is small, but high schoolers love a full band. Without the drumshields and lid, it's too loud for even high school kids. The lid made a huge difference by keeping sound from bouncing off the ceiling and back off the floor.
