Audio-Technica Pro-24CM Reviews
Audio Technica perfect stereo mic
This is an awesome stereo condenser mic, especially at this price. I'm using it atop my Blackmagic 4K Cinema Camera and it greatly enhances the audio experience.
Solid Microphone for the price
I've been using this the Audio-Technica microphone for a few weeks. It replaced my Azden SMX-10 shotgun mic that developed a static sound after after 2 years of use. The A-T mic does a solid job of recording outdoors with little or no post processing required. I'm quite pleased with the performance thus far with my Panasonic video camera. The soft sided pouch is a nice extra too.
Excellent product
Wonderful product and easy to use
Inexpensive, but Quality System
Not a professional studio Mic setup, but for someone on a budget and wanting a good quality Mic setup, it is great.
Great background audio
Perfect for outdoor music concerts with a solid sound system. Great for picking up natural sounds at close range, (wind in trees and a small stream/waterfall). Does not pick up voices/conversations well when more than 4-5 feet away. My difficulty with this piece of equipment is that you have no idea how long the battery will last, there was no indicator for me whether or not the equipment was working - had to wait to see it in production (why I though unreliable). Also, changing the battery is difficult - I needed pin nose pliers to change the battery.
Worth the money, don't expect too much
I'm happy enough with the quality from this microphone. It works and it sounds more professional than the on camera mic. The battery seems like it will last a long time and the cord is easy enough to keep out of the way. (I wrap it around the front of the shoe mount to keep it off my screen). I would only use this as a replacement for the on board mic for quick audio. To get better results, get the mic closer to your speaker/talent. If you've got $ to spend, don't get a rode - buy a external recorder and this for your quick and dirty work and as a backup.
Pro-24CM stereo microphone
I used the microphone to record a concert in a small venue. It did great! Not too much background noise came in and the audio quality on the video is very good.
Don't Buy This - - Really.
I bought this as a supplemental microphone to attach to a GoPro and my iPhone. The audio quality is usable but the pickup pattern is so tight it only captures audio at very close range. Which means adding gain to the audio in post which increases the ever present buzz of the mic.
