Today we look at a classic microphone from Sennheiser, the MD441U. This mic is fairly flat for a dynamic mic, it offers a super-cardioid polar pattern, and has a built in 5-way high pass dial and high boost switch. You can get some very vintage tones out of this thing with the high boost switch off, and if you’re looking for a more modern tone, the high boost provides that sound. However, the high boost sounds a bit artificial and on spoken word the flat mode can sound a bit nasally.
