Mini Review
The Sennheiser MD 445 is my new favourite microphone for noisy stages where I need to cut through the mix and get maximum gain before feedback. This has not displaced the Neumann KMS 105 which is still my go to microphone for solo shows or quiet concerts. But when I need to be heard in a loud band setting, the MD 445 stands out.
I'm using it the Sennheiser MM 445 Wireless Capsule with Sennheiser Evolution Wireless Digital EW-D system and it's indistinguishable from the wired MD 445.
As you should expect from a super cardioid microphone, you want to sing directly into it. And when you do, you are well rewarded. It has a lift in the upper midrange and details in the highs that comes close to sounding like a good condenser microphone. This also helps me to project, compete, and be heard in a busy stage mix.
See how it compares with other dynamic microphones in my microphone shootout.
