Tiger Brass 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.

Excelent grip, beauty controller, the tiger are the best

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got mine in Tiger Stipe. Now looking into the 15L!!!

I pranked someone at work by putting tiger balm (think Ben gay) on their headphones... so worth it. But they couldn't get the smell out so... yeah. Fits great and much better than the plasticy stuff

Great for Vocal and Instruments!

brass works!

I like the brass construction.

I 100% recommend this product. I dropped my phone in a tiger enclosure where it stayed for a week. When I got it back the screen protector was shattered and judging from the scratches on the back of my phone the 2 year old tiger had investigated a little. Once I removed the screen protector though, my phone screen was perfect, like nothing happened at all! Without this screen protector I would easily have needed a new phone.

I use it for photoing tiger beetles, frisky little things that run about in open sandy areas. With the lens mounted on a desktop tripod and attached to a Canon 5DSr, I can lay flat on the ground and shoot tiger beetles from their perspective. At max zoom I'm far enough away to avoid disturbing the beetles, and the 5DSr's 50mp sensor allows a vivid tight crop when shot in RAW. I use a 1/8 sec lens-up delay to avoid shutter shock, occasionally noticeable with the high res of the 5DSr. Autofocus is fast, smooth and silent, and locks in beautifully with AF point set for center spot; I can track and shoot these fast-moving, unpredictable subjects with ease and accuracy. Image stabilization is a huge plus. Lens and camera are each up to the other's potential, a killer combination that promises great things next summer when I really get going. Test shots with a Canon Gen II 2X teleconverter deliver the same quality and I have yet to find a weak spot in the system. Sample images: full frame showing view through lens, then crop of face of a Big Sand Tiger beetle (Cicindela formosa generosa) in Livingston County, MI, natural daylight at full zoom, F11, shutter speed 1/1600, ISO 1000, hand-held (elbows propped on the sand) with no shutter delay (I have since started using shutter delay after discarding too many images due to shutter shock). Other images include another tight crop of a Big Sand tiger beetle, and my rig for shooting insects at ground level. The tripod has an economical* ball head with adjustable tension knob (*of course most things I shoot live in sand so no sense burning through a string of expensive ball heads for that tripod - I already got sand in the first one). The lens is attached to a long Arca-type plate that allows me to position the lens on the tripod head at the balance point between lens and camera.
