Does Not Work With Computer Inputs
I have used the ECMMS907 to fill about 150 mini discs since I bought it three years ago. It runs lovingly on one AA battery (unlike it's watch-battery-dependent predecessor) and allows for two polor patterns 180 and 90 degrees. The casing of the unit is rugged. It includes wind screen, travel pouch, stand clip, and four foot cloth encased cable. I have been able to record everything from street musicians to Dave Bruebeck concerts.
In pro audio it isn't considerd cool to like ...

Sounds ok...
This works well with a sony digital camcorder, and it is the same product as a similar looking mic marketed for camcorders specifically. This works poorly with a computer mic input. I Compared a cheap (cheaper than this mic) XLR vocal mic with this sony one. I connected both to a USB audio interface (mbox 2/protools le) and the vocal mic outperforms the sony mic by a significantly noticeable degree for instrumental recording. If you're not using this with a minidisc recorder, spring for a usb/f...

Simple setup - excellent price point for recordings
I use the MS-MS907 microphone on a weekly basis. My main use of this microphone is to record lectures and it does a good job of it. Of course microphone placement is the key to a good recording but the MS907 provides a good pickup at this price point. It operates on a single AA battery and is highly efficient with energy consumption. Another feature I like about this microphone is that it provides two pickup pattern (90degrees for an individual speaker and 120degrees to accomodate a chorus).I...

Piano Recording using the Sony ECMMS907 digital stereo mike.
I purchased this microphone to record piano playing in my living room via the Griffin iMic to my Mac iBook using the software "WireTap Pro" version 1.11. I have mounted the Mike on the side of my grand piano, where the wall curves. I have made very good recordings, and I am happy with the unit and it's price. I didn't find the recordings to be as good when I attempted to record from some distance away from the piano. Recording from close up and adjusting the sensitivity in the software to avoid ...

Affordable Digital Recording. GREAT VALUE!!!
The other reviewers wrote some great info about this Microphone. Some drawbacks are the relatively bulkyness of this unit as compared to others.The sound quality is sufficiently clear when recording, but is not sensitive enough to satisfy the most demanding users such as musicians or professional reporters. As the other reviewers have said, you need a relatively loud source as there is no sensitivity switch or zoom feature. It does have the 90-120 degree switch, so you can toggle the range...

Wonderful item.
This has been a wonderful microphone for me. I heard it as the microphone used on the cd The Kitchen Tapes by Lori McKenna. I asked other fans what microphone she used, because I loved the stereo sound she got. They told me this was the microphone she used, and I bought it. I use it with my minidisc recorder when I need to record my live performances. I've found that the best way to use this is to set it on the floor between my feet, using a low profile microphone stand from Musician's Friend. L...

Sony ECMMS907 Digital Recording Microphone
It works great. I wanted to have a quick way to record musical ideas, a rehearsal or a live show with my Sony minidisc recorder and this mic does the trick! Sure, it's not going to be perfect or the "best possible sound quality", but that's not the intent of the product in the first place.
I have had great results so far and highly recommend this product!

This mic is great for the price
If you look around you'll see that this mic is one of the most popular for recording concerts, lectures, etc. I found it to be clear when recording, although there needed to be moderate volume. There is no sensitivity switch. It does have the 90-120 degree switch, so you can increase the scope of recording. The unit is built well, and comes apart easily to allow replacement of the battery, which should last a long time. When using this microphone, make sure if the volume level reaching you ...

Good recording results; holder doesn't fit standard stands
I like the results I have gotten with this microphone, both in a concert setting and recording myself and friends playing music with my minidisc recorder.
My only reason for giving this mic 4 out of 5 stars is that the thread size on the holder that comes with it does not fit the threads of any microphone stand I am aware of. Also, the body of the mic has a somewhat oblong shape instead of being perfectly round. As such, you'll have a hard time finding any standard mic holder to att...

Great microphone for instrument recording
I brought this microphone to record violin playing. The result was amazingly well. I did little modification to the microphone, by re-wiring it from stero to XLR. Using two of this kind of micropones, recording on both MR-8 8 track digital recorder and US-224 Tascam digital recorder, I could make CD at professional quality. Sony does make a professional microphone with similar technology. The difference between that one and this one is the connector. For this consumer product, they purposely...
