How does this mic sound with lower brass?

I have not used it on lower brass myself as I do not play brass but strings. I have however out it on mandolin banjo and resonator, as well as my wife's mandolin and can tell you it covers all frequencies well. And I have been to concerts where tenor and baritone sax players used it and it sounded great.

I haven't used it with low brass. I would keep searching for an answer on that. I only use it on acoustic guitars and it sounds pretty good.

I use it for trombone live, and it sounds great! Any lower than that, I'm not sure.

It has a low end driver and their is no workable treb,midBass setting,it says it has but unless you have video combined I see no way of adjusting it for your low end db setting.I would say "NO" dont waste your money save up a extra $100 and buy a harke or if your on a tight budget a fender 40 or 60 watt bass amp will give you better results,you can mic a small amp for small gigs or basement bands.

Mine sounds awesome. I couldn't be more please for the price to quality ratio. I've had a few of my fellow players comment on it's good sound. I can't, of course, say what yours might sound like but I'm pleased with mine and have had it for quite a while now ... good luck

Yes it's a great mic. I used it with the Scarlett 18i20. Also with a mackie mixer to outboard beheringer compressor.

Yeah, this is primarily a stage amp. It sounds good at lower volumes but sounds amazing when cranked. It can play a decent sized bar without micing depending on your bandmates gear.

No, I haven't but the frequency response is fairly flat in the upper register. The mic is a little hotter than a Shure SM57.

Sorry, never tested in that environment. I personally only used it for in house solo recording and for the ability to get a nice tone at low volumes which this is perfect in that capacity. I do remember reading a review saying it was fine in a "garage band" setting so should be able to handle it. Really nice amp though for the money. Blows away anything in its price range.

Try to keep the master volume up and your mic gain as low as you can. Also start off with the EQ Flat and work Down from there. Place Mic as close to mouth as possible. Sennheiser is a great brand, just try to stick with their European line and not the stuff from China.

Yes! It what I have on my Technics SL-BD20D sound good for the price.I thought of getting a Grado P-mount cartridge.

Not necessarily. Sometimes it may seem that you lose some bottom end but, not really "tone". Not that I'VE noticed anyways. I read somewhere that when mic'ing an amp, sometimes the floor can have an adverse effect on the sound. I'm guessing it's a matter of taste.

I found it doesn't have a lot of distortion. Is it pro-level? Not even close, but for a budget and for most people that might listen to recordings done with it, it will be fine. I've recorded performances with it, and as a shotgun mic, it filters out external noise nicely.

Surprisingly enough, this mic is a bit nicer to brass than many large diaphragm condensers. It's a clean sound, and with a little EQ can work well.

If you shut off the mic and keep the volume down, you should be ok. It's a Nice pickup!

It sounds great for a podcast. From a mini pod on the table or a boom mic the quality is great.

@ +12db you will hear some noise, but for live work it's acceptable> I would not use it for studio post production mix downs. Hope this was helpful.

Ya I think so. It has a accented high frequency that I think would work good for a trumpet. I usually use it for vocals and acoustic guitars and end up boosting the mid-lows a bit because its a little thin but I think it would be good for a trumpet in my opinion. I havnt tried it for any brass though so this is just a general thought
