This Marantz audio pro mic is the dope! I would recommend avoiding lesser known brands and sticking with this reliable brand. Audio quality is excellent. To avoid clicks, smacks and other undesired sounds follow the advice you can easily find online (stay hydrated, keep your distance from the mic, get a pop screen, and post process to optimize). NOTE that your best bet is to *avoid* the undesired sounds at the time of recording (don't assume you can post-process your way out of a crappy recording, hence recommendation to this mic and get a pop filter).
I grew up with Marantz hi-fi stereo equipment (yes! that generation) .... 30 years later my dad still uses that same Marantz equipment on his home multi-deck stereo because it's first class and indestructible equipment. (My dad is a gifted musician and passionate consumer of music). I did some *serious* comparative analysis of audio recording equipment and am SO glad I purchased this!
So glad to see that Marantz continues to put out first-rate equipment; I can't recommend this mic more strongly. Construction is impeccable, 16-bit converter, and priced for pro's and beginners alike ($53 for the 2000U at time of this review - I paid twice that and still considered it a great deal). Note I would recommend the 2000U version for anyone even vaguely serious about (a) generating a high-quality audio recording and (b) reducing post-processing time and effort.
I would say you get the same frequency response as an MXL 770, they both feel warm).
That said, there are a number of features I feel would benefit this mic. A gain control knob, along with a mute button, a direct monitor headphone jack would go a long way.
In addition, it's a USB mic, and any USB mic will have the actual mic itself, along with a preamp built in. This means you're only partially paying for the mic unit, and the rest is going to the preamp. While it's not bad in this case, it's advisable to get a dedicated preamp/audio interface and get an XLR microphone (Marantz makes an XLR mic known as the MPM-1000 [without the 'U'] that you should look at) as it is far more modular and serviceable than a rigid USB mic.
tl;dr: Microphone itself is good, but lacks features and its USB limits its future-proofing
The mount worked great on my boom arm and holds the mic in place perfectly. The case this come with is really nice as well. I do not plan to make this a mobile use item, but in the event that I do need to take with me, I have no doubt that this case will protect my investment.
I have compared this to an even more expensive mic that had some settings on it and this sounded so much better. If I need another mic, I have no intention on getting anything else.
Everything looked great, shock mount, hard carrying case, directional pick-up, USB hook-up, so i bought it (MPM-2000U)
I was NOT disappointed, the sound is crisp ,loud & most of all very clear,i use it mostly on my Discord Channel & eveyone loves the sound of it.
I also bought the Boom arm, & the Pop shield. what a GREAT purchase, the price was the best i have seen 4 a mic of this caliber.

Even if I'm across the room, they can tell where I'm standing due to the mic picking up the proper direction.
It does pick around quite a bit of background noise (mechanical keyboard, mouse clicks) if I hang it up above my head, but if I have it rightside up, it does a good job of drowning out the keyboard and mouse clicks
配信やVCの足掛かりに。
La prima cosa da sottolineare è la qualità del pre-amplificatore integrato nel microfono. Non si avverte alcun rumore/fruscio di fondo, di alcun tipo! Veramente eccellente, soprattutto considerata la fascia di prezzo per un microfono USB. Inoltre il microfono ha un impronta estremamente piacevole, calda ma non "colorata". Ed essendo un microfono di tipo cardioide è decisamente sensibile e capace di catturare il suono con nuance. A questo proposito mi sento di consigliare l'acquisto di una retina (pop filter) senza la quale è molto probabile che registriate dei picchi se siete troppo vicini al microfono, proprio perché è molto sensibile.
Nonostante la sua sensibilità, grazie al tipo di polarità cardioide il microfono si distingue inoltre anche per la capacità di rigettare i rumori ambientali circostanti.
Inoltre trovate nella scatole lo shock mount, discretamente solido e con una vite a farfalla che permette di fissare efficacemente il microfono nella posizione che più preferite, e una valigetta che, sebbene non sia niente di fenomenale, è senza dubbio funzionale e pratica.
Secondo me per il prezzo (89 € al momento) è veramente un ottimo affare. Un microfono entry level di tutto rispetto non c'è che dire, da acquistare senza troppi pensieri.
