I've been using mine for 2 weeks now and HOLY shit!!!
I've never made tapes this clean and real sounding. I am really enjoying every aspect of the v3. easy to use, built like a tank, nice controls, and hella sound.
I've been usoing with an akg c422 and lemme say it ROCKS.
This mic is pretty heavy in the bottom and full of detail, and the v3 tightens up the bass perfectly, a little tooo much detail sometimes, but you gotta find the right SPOT.
I've heard lots of combos with this mic and the v3 IS my favorite...I could tell from the first tape
