Nady CM 90 Reviews

Almost a Fantastic Deal

This mic sounds wonderful, most of the time. I own a pair of these mics and have used them with various preamps - Alesis iO Hub, Tascam DR-40, ART Tube MP, and Studio Projects VTB-1, and it works great with all of them. However, I have a pair of these mics and the only preamps I have a pair of is on my M-Audio M-Track. These mics exhibit a overbearing crunching horrible noise only when used with my M-Track. The M-Track works fine with all my other mics, and the CM-90s work fine with all my other preamps. I feel as though perhaps these mics aren't stable with USB interfaces, and certainly not with an M-Track. Otherwise they sound great.

Decent

Used for : Acoustic Guitar Voice Drum overheads Idk why it just seems average. Nothing speacial about it sound wise. I did like the fact that it was very affordable! If this is your first condenser, buy it. Comes with the case and mount. I should have bought a stereo Pair.
