AKG Lyra - Pros & Cons

astonishingly high sample rates and high-quality
quite versatile and features great specs
AKG Lyra is great value
it performed well above our expectations
Setting up the Lyra is so simple
It looks stylish and is simple to use
people s lives more creative
fun and productive
zero-latency monitoring is excellent with no echo and that makes
everything is fine

rubbery non-slip base to further prevent it sliding
lack of a gain dial through something like a simple slider
poor
lack of a binaural build
be of much use in actually configuring your microphones
both mics fall short when it comes to filtering out background noise
You are using an outdated browser
it captures a lot of unwanted background noise
The plastic buttons are extended forward and a bit wobbly
complicate the front controls of the mic a bit too much
it will pick up a lot of unwanted and unnecessary audio
a headphone volume control and a mute button
the gain dial being located on the back
only be using the Front setting
Lyra is not just suitable for its intended application as a podcasting mic
There s no need to use an audio interface or a mixing desk
The positioning of this knob is a bit unfortunate
