A wonderful universal microphone for spoken word. Compared to e835, which is similar, MD46 is slightly more rounded in higher frequencies (less harsh) and slightly less mud in the low end. It does not use a neodymium magnet which makes it a bit more durable. Very healthy output. It is worth spending a little extra for the original foam cover MZW-1 because it eliminates all the plosives (like magic).

Makes my voice sound better than it is!

I first owned one of these in 2005 and it was the same price even back then and later I made the mistake of letting it go as i became more aware of its history ( being originally created for NBC IN 2000 among other things) I used this in my home studio for voice over and announcing practice and now that I own a Mic preamp in my mixer the sound of the MD 46 is even better than before. you can use this in a studio as well as the field and for completely plosive free results I recommend using a foam pop filter ( thankfully I invested in a good supply of them.) It's nice to have the MD46 Mic back in my Mic Collection after a long absence

I needed a microphone to record and live stream during a busy conference, in the booth area. The sound is just incredibly crisp and nearly no background noise. It’s impressive. By far the best microphone that I’ve ever owned. For reference, I used it with a canon rebel t6i using an adapter and it worked great! When you’re doing playback on the camera itself, it might seem like the sound is not being recorded, but if you either switch to Manual to check the sound levels, or download the video into a computer, you will see that the sound is indeed being captured.

I run a video production company and I wanted to add a long handled interview mic to our audio kit so we could fit a flag on it for clients that like that branded/newsy look. This fit the bill and sounds super clean with great response and very little background noise pickup.
