Not my cup of tea.
1st of all let me make clear that this microphone isn't bad, but this review is based on my taste.
U was looking for a vocal microphone and this mic juat didn't cut it for my voice. I plugged it into a Audient id14 and, on those preamps, is just sound too "shrill" on my voice. Somehow "spiky" and harsh at times. That said, it could just be my voice or the preamps.
I was 1st going to give it a 3 star rating but then I remebered what it did on my acoustic guitar and as a drum room mic/overhead/just behind the drummer mic. This thing does really well on those instruments.
If you are looking for an all around instrument microphone I doubt you will go wrong with this one. It wasn't my thing because I was looking for a vocal microphone and it didn't suit my voice, but as a versitile instrument microphone the at4040 works.
Also it feels sturdy and my guess is it won't give out soon. I had an at2020 that i banged around for years and it is still going strong.
