  • The MXL 990 is a side address mic (the capsule faces the side with the mxl logo and cardiod symbol, not the top of the microphone. This comparison is an sm58 on axis vs. a mxl 990 off axis.

  • ay my man you are on the money off center

    actually maybe these things has had defects

    opened unscrewed capsule and its to the side

    still good sound cardiod > dynamic for sensitivity

  • could u make a tutorial on how to make the MXL 990 work on the Cubase AI 4?

  • Hey i dunno how Cubase works so i dunno, you need a phantom powere mixer 48volts and a line in on your pc everything else is the same as any mic when hookingup

see all

  • Clueless pothead...

  • This video is an excellent demonstration of how not to do a mic review. For that, we should be thankful; people should really watch it to learn what not to do.

    1. Two mics, same track? Bad form. Not all mics behave the same and you can't EQ one to match another, especially when...

    2. You are comparing two different types of mics. Dynamic v. Condenser? And you use them on the same line? No wonder you had feedback.

    3. Do you have ANY idea what the front of the MXL looks like???

  • LEARN ABOUT AUDIO BEFORE WORRYING ABOUT POSTING DAMN VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE> MORON.

  • HAHAHAHAHA!! Talking into the TOP of a mid-size diaphragm side addressed mic, and then said it must have a defect because the diaphragm was to the side! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! OMG, thank you, I needed a laugh today.

  • Ok this is funny. Worthless as a mic review, but freaking funny.

  • @7venty2wos hhaha

  • You just BLEW my F*N ear drumz Azzhole! You NEVER plug in a friggen CONDENSER mic in like that!! Yea... I'm pissed! I had my headphones on listenin to that dang screech... THATS WHY THEY CALL IT F*N PHANTOM POWER DINKNOSE! My ear drummz kill now. Get your Shizat straight first idiot!

  • Man you should not review things that you have no idea how to use.One is condensor and one is dynamic.Two different beasts.Mr. Rogers should take away your liscence to review ANYTHING

  • Smoking pod makes you even more stupid.......... Stop smoking and get back to normal will takes some time but you can do it.......
