Great sounding mic
C. Sutor 04.03.2022
I received my sE Dynacaster a couple of weeks ago. I’d previously been using the SM57 with the A81WS windscreen and an inline pre to boost the signal. It is… it was great setup, but I’m enjoying the clarity the Dynacaster offers compared to the 57. I also like that I’ve been able to declutter my desktop a bit by having the mic booster built in.

My use case is that I am a PC gamer and I work remote (I’m in Zoom meetings most of the day), and I want my audio to be crisp for the people on the other end. While this mic may be overkill for my needs, I feel justified.

Beast of a microphone
R3minis 03.11.2022
The features and sound quality are amazing, to me personally I prefer it over my re320. And the eq on the back comes in handy for my recording situations. The built-in pop filter is really good, better than most microphones, I hardly have to use the foam windscreen that comes with it. 10/10

Impressive build and sound quality!
Tanner Michell 01.07.2023
The mic is beefy. It feels great in the hands and has a lot of weight to it. The construction is strong and very clean and it feels like a premium product.

The built in dynamite is a game changer for somebody who doesn't have the greatest preamps - I have a 1st gen audience ID14 and from testing, I won't use the mic without the dynamite engaged. It provides a huge gain boost and with my preamps, a much cleaner recording.

Sound quality is really good, no complaints.

Would recommend as an alternative to SM7b

The best product in terms of price / quality ratio.
Elmarino. Baku, Azerbaijan. 02.03.2023
I needed a dynamic microphone for video recording and streaming in my home studio. I looked through a lot of reviews and decided that I would take the Dynacaster. Placed an order and received my microphone in less than 2 weeks. The excellent quality of both the product itself and the service from Thomann, for which I want to thank you all.

BJ
Absolutely amazing for recording Vocals at home in an untreated apartment.
Big Jake 14.09.2023
I was looking for something for singing similar to the SM7B but not so expensive. I also didn't want to buy a cloudlifter or something else for gain. I am using a MOTU M4 interface.

All I can say is WOW. This microphone sounds absolutely incredible. I have just made my first demos with it and I am shocked. My vocals sound better than ever, even better than when I used to have a treated studio and condenser mics. I use the high pass filter and just hold the mic in my hand. No issues with handling noise. Also no noise from outside or from my apartment makes it onto the tracks. Incredible. It sounds like I am singing right into your ear. It also takes very little EQ to get it to sit right in the mix. All I had to do was pull out a tiny bit of low mids.

The dynamite feature is great. Quiet and clean gain. I have the gain on my MOTU at only 25% and this is more than enough.

I am using the included foam pop filter and there is zero issue with plosives at all.

Overall, I am really happy and consider this microphone a bargain at this price.
