Today I review a new budget condenser mic from Presonus, the PX-1. This mic has a pretty robust low end, a neutral low end, and a nice boost to the top end, however it does start to sound slightly sizzly and artificial, but nothing terrible. The huge draw back here is the handling noise which is atrocious. I also found a really low sub 50hz noise. I also compare it to the Neewer NW700, Mackie EM-91C, Audio Technica AT2020, and Neat King Bee.

A photo went viral of a reporter covering Hurricane Ian using a condom on her microphone. I wanted to test that out.
