Sennheiser 416 Vs Secret Weapon MYN 416

Summary: The first take is on the Sennheiser, the second take on the Secret Weapon. Can you tell the difference? The Sennheiser MKH-416 has a sonic signature designed to capture dialogue for film and TV production and at some point someone realized it also made a great mic for voice over. Now, a VO industry standard, the 416 delivers tracks with the kind of presence that cuts through a mix. It's a sound producers know and look for in your bookings and auditions. As a VO artist, If you want or need that sound, and have a $1,000 to spend, the 416 is no-brainer. But what if you could get that 416 sound for a fraction of the price? I've been working for the last few months to figure that out and I think I've found the answer: The Secret Weapon MYN-416. *These were recorded with identical settings. Same EQ, same volume, etc.
