Podcastage | Presonus M7 Budget Mic Review / Test (vs. NW700, TM80, AT2020, U87) @Podcastage | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 13 hours ago
Today I review a budget mic, the Presonus M7. This offers a rolled off low end, a forward mid section and a somewhat dull air region. I don't think this mic sounds particularly good on any sound source, and I don't recommend it as a stand alone purchase, but if you're getting it as a part of a kit you can make it work.
