Comments about Audio-Technica Audio-Technica Cardioid Condenser Shotgun Microphone:
I wish there had been more specific instructions for getting the best sound quality out of this microphone right out of the box. My main use is for adding voice-over or other sounds to short video. I had to experiment with settings on my computer, microphone set-up, and Soundbooth, but after about an hour (a frustrating hour) I figured out the best way to capture fantastic sound reliably. I've used this microphone to capture voices and sounds in nature clearly. I'm very happy with this product.
