Just got this microphone last week to use as an overhead for my drum kit. Working to a budget so only using microphones on the snare and bass drum. The AKG Perception offers switchable control over how it picks up signals. This is a very sexy looking microphone with a powder blue finish and excellent tooling. It oozes quality and is quite a heavy piece of kit. It comes in a equally sexy case ideal for keeping it safe on the road. The shock mount cradle supplied with it ensures clean pick up of signal and is well made. So how does it perform?I play in a Deep Purple Tribute band so quality and volume of sound are paramount. I selected the Cardioid pattern and placed the Perception over the middle of the kit bringing it in from the front,slightly biased over the two floor toms. Pick up was superb and it gave detailed sounds of the toms and cymbals which were very clear. I haven't tried the other settings yet as the Cardioid was so good. Tried bringing it in from the back of the kit slighty to the right of my head at the maximum height of the microphone stand. This also gave excellent results. This set up will only ever be used for live work for me, but I'm sure this would be an excellent choice in the studio as well. This microphone is very sensitive so be careful when its overhead. If you mutter under your breath, or grunt when your playing every one will hear you!!The instruction booklet that is supplied is easy to follow and does not blow you away with "technojargon". Only problem I found was the counter weight on your mike stand needs to very substantial due to the weight of the Microphone. I had problems with the stand tipping forward. However this is no fault of the Microphone and I solved the problem by gaffa taping the stand to the stage floor. What would us drummers do without Gaffa tape?Very happy with AKG Perception 420, and when funds are better I will buy another and use two overheads. Excellent product and excellent service via amazon.

Having a small budget I needed a good microphone that I can use with FL Studio. You have to be careful with the positive reviews these days as they can't always be trusted sadly, well, this review is genuine. I've tested it on my new Steinburg UR 22C and it just works, very clear, very sensitive so you will need a quiet room to take advantage of it but the sound quality is excellent, not too much treble or base to the sound, just clear mid tones and a little warm which is a good thing for most people. I'm using it with FL Studio for voice and some acoustic guitar and it's perfect for what I need and great value to boot! Don't hesitate, just order it.

It took me a little while to get used to it after using a really rubbish vocal mic, but the sound quality of this mic is fab. I'm not going to bore people with technical details - if you love making a noise and recording and being creative, why not treat yourself to something really worth the price..

I feel that this Condenser Microphone complements the tone of my voice better than what I have used in the past. Defo brilliant quality for a budget. 'Thumbs Up' from me.
