Today I review a budget condenser microphone, the Behringer SB 78A. This is a handheld stage condenser mic that can be used on stage, or in your studio. It has a high pass filter, and a sensitivity of -48dB. Overall it’s a great budget option for someone looking to dip their toe into condensers for live environments or for podcasting.
