Good product

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ For the price, a really good product!
*by A***R on 16 September 2016*

Exactly what I was looking for in a budget microphone! I use it for tracking vocals and a nylon string acoustic guitar and the C01 does the job beautifully. Great clarity with a very low noise floor. High sensitivity so you need to watch your input gain to minimize ambient noises (which it picks up A LOT if the tracking is done in a not so noise free environment). Came with a carry case which is a big help for safe keeping and transportation. Word of advise, consider getting a microphone stand as it makes life a whole lot easier. I am happy with the purchase and still getting blown away by the quality of sound it can reproduce! Kudos to Amazon for the timely (a day before the scheduled date of delivery actually). Happy tracking :)
