Today i review the Beyerdyanmic M130, a passive figure-8 ribbon which gives you a very rich and robust low-end and a tamer treble and air frequency range. This gives you more of a classic ribbon sound if that's what you're looking for and it also works INCREDIBLY with the M160 in a mid-side pair.

Today I'm reivewing and demoing the Hyperx Quadcast 2, a multipattern USB condenser microphone. This thing offers a nice sound quality, a fairly intuitive operation, a capacitive mute button, and everything you need to start recording. It's a nice improvement over the gen 1 with improved sound quality, A/D and D/A converters and functionality.
