The en•CORE 100i has taken to the stage and the audience has spoken...
|
"Simply, the Blue 100i sounds killer on just about everything. It's one of those new breeds of dynamic microphones that could easily replace small-diaphragm condenser microphones on some applications, thanks to its stellar high-frequency response and articulate, detailed mid-range."

"The overall sound is very smooth with a solid low-frequency response… The cardioid pickup pattern provides good side and rear rejection and tonally drops off smoothly at the sides."
