AKG P120 Condenser Mic Review / Test

Today, I review the AKG P120; a relatively budget condenser mic that rivals the AT2020. This thing sounds great all around, but picks up quite a bit of background noise, but if you're not concerned with background noise, I would absolutely recommend this mic.

this mic is a workhorse, I've used it for hip hop vocals for about 7 years now.

Just got a P120 because I liked how it sounded in this demo. After the first test I'll have to say it sounds damn awesome on every thing I tried it so far!
Thanks for your great vids!

Bandrew I really like your reviews, but I think that as most of them are in a properly acoustically treated room, it is difficult to know how much, and what kind of reverb they pick up. If you could also include a test where you test these microphones in an untreated room, I think it'll be a great addition for people who can't afford to get their room acoustically treated, and are looking to make videos with good audio.

[DaveStarr.]

This mic has been on my radar for a while. Was surprised to see it in my notifications. (thought it was a receipt for a second lol!) good, comprehensive as always Bandrew. A worth it mic for sure

[Pedakin]

Wow, what an amazing review. Quick, concise, EXACTLY what the people need. Liked.

[coldcoffee]

My microphone for 2 years now. Still loving it!

[MusicTutorials]

Wich one would you prefer? This one or the behringer B1? They are around the same pricing 🤔🤔

[KaiRJ]

hey Bandrew, big fan of your reviews..so i went for this one over the at2020 after watching your review and tbh i'm so glad i went for this one..
the last two songs i've covered on my channel is with this one and they sound amazing.. <3

[joyajohnson]

The comparison mic is crazy cus that’s exactly what I’m shopping lol you are a wizard!

This was my first microphone about 13 years ago (wow), bluish/silverish color, and it did hell of a job, very versatile, very open and very bright. It did have some issues with the reflections though, I was fighting the comb filtering pretty often. I guess the newer version is quite better

[josephrayle]

Thanks for this. I'm pondering this mic. You were right-it's between this and the AT 2020 for me.

[SeanDIY]

I agree. I have it and it picks up all kinds of sounds in my house. Keyboard, even if I move a bit. But sound is great if there is zero background noise.

This channel is the king of entry level gear

[JamesFoxPodcast]

Thanks for making this! I always watch your videos before I buy a mic
