Review Summary

Fantastic sound, surprisingly close to 416. I boom it wireless into a GoPro, using a Zoom F3 as a preamp, or just use a AA Energizer rechargeable lithium when space doesn't allow. Not as full sound as MK 8050 but the ability to use a battery is a huge advantage. 100% woud recommend for all tasks, indoor or outdoor, until your budget allows for an MK 8050 for specific indoor vocal work.

The sound that comes off of this microphone is clear and clean. The battery powered phantom power works like a champ and has been extremely handy in situations where a powered interface isn't reasonable. I regularly use this with an Atomos Ninja V and am entirely satisfied with its performance. I received the MKE 600 as part of a kit with the H&A Professional Windshield for Shotgun Microphones. I would not recommend anyone else do this, as the windshield's performance is sub-par. But the microphone itself is stellar.

I had the rode video micro I believe first and I thought I was set on audio. It wasn?t until I broke down and upgraded that I realized the difference this mic has made. It?s got that nice mid to low end I?ve been missing but really nice high presence as well. Pretty solid buy!

Great mic at this price point. Solid construction and a good neutral sound. Great mic if you can only have one shotgun.

So far only used on one occasion, but did a great job of reducing the sound of a band close to the subject being recorded.

I used it for recording audio indoor to Tascam DR100 mkiii. The sound is good. Personally, I cannot hear much different to Rode VideoMicro recording at similar position. It is probably over-skill for my scenario.

This microphone sounds amazing. I have many different ones from Sennheiser. Like the MKH 416 and it holds up awesomely by this microphone. We use them for boom mic video audio.
