Home Record Studio Setup

I use this for my home studio to record shows and podcasts. It works excellent!

I like it. Works fine in my home studio where I record music and share it with friends.

Easy setup. Quality build. Ideal for the home studio.

I use this to record voice over at my home studio. I love the warm sound it picks up. I have a low rumble in my voice and it picks that up very cleanly. This mic works best from about 6 - 10 inches away. It also has great rejection from the sides and back.

I use the mic to record vocals and instruments in my home studio. The pros are clear and accurate recording. No cons found yet.

I had no issues whatsoever with the 16x08. use it in my home studio and to record my band live at gigs to a laptop. I use it at 96KHz 6ms latency and works fine.

I use the mic to record vocals and acoustic guitar in my home studio. I find it clear and responsive across all frequencies, with little feedback. It feels solid and comes with a handy carry pouch for traveling. Overall, great value mic.

I bought this mic to record vocals for rap/hip-hop/alternative music in my home studio. With the proper recording environment and mixing techniques this mic can produce near-industry standard recordings. For the low price this is an incredibly high quality mic and I would recommend it to anyone starting a home studio, anything cheaper than this just isn't worth it. It is important to remember that this mic is not all you will need, any mic will sound bad in a carppy environment, especially this mic. The AT2035 is VERY sensitive to background noise like fans, AC's, washing machines, computers and movement.

I am an independent musician and when I am NOT recording at a professional studio, I have a set-up at home to do rough drafts/etc. I have the MXL Mic Mate Pro hooked up to my MXL microphone. This Mic Mate Pro provides phantom power & connects directly to my macbook. No reason to have a weak tube pre-amp & millions of feet of XLR cords anymore. PROS: Super Easy Set Up (I can plug it in & record), Super Light Weight (easy to travel with, seeing how I use a macbook, I might record at home, a friend's house, a vacant warehouse, etc), Headphone & Gain Controls directly on the piece (this is a HUGE improvement compared to other XLR/USB converters, including other MXL products), Sound is super clean and sometimes I will record vocals at home to have them mixed and mastered at a professional studio - This saves me money, as I do not need to pay to record my vocals and just have the mixing/mastering which is going to be time I'd be paying for normally anyway. CONS: I feel like the Headphone Volume should be able to go a little louder. I have to control that on Adobe Audition (the program I record in) if I need it to go louder than what is capable on tool itself.

This reflection filter is just what I needed for my home studio. Since the room I record in does not have sound treatment, I wanted something to help stop unwanted reflections. This has made a big difference in recording vocals, and the reasonable price and compact size are a big plus.
