The Classic Workhorse

Look, if it's good enough for the likes Stevie Wonder and countless radio and music pros through the years, it's good enough for my podcast! It makes us sound professional--the dual frequency settings, set to the 'quick attack' setting (usually used for drums) smooths out my vocal pattern (I tend to shout and overmodulate a bit) and makes for an overall great sound to my voice for our show. I own two, both bought through eBay, and am seriously considering adding another to round out the mic cabinet for our show. It's rugged construction allows for us to take it "on the road" to our various live events, and not be too concerned about damage--we treat it very well, but it's a tough sucker and doesn't need to be "babied" like so many other similar mics. Considering it's price when bought new, a used purchase of the RE-320 on eBay at the price where I usually see has to be one of the best values in the pro audio market.Read full review...

Not in the same league as the RE20 or SM7B

It’s just ok to my ears. Sounds a bit cheap / harsh compared to the classic smooth sounding RE20. If you need brighter then the RE27 is also a much better choice. Can not really recommend this one.

EV RE320 and Rode PSA1

There are plenty of in depth reviews on these products on blogs and YouTube. If you want the tech specs, look at those. For me, I got these products to publish my podcast. I have a Shure X2U XLR-to-USB Signal Adapter attached that gives me 25DB of pretty clean gain. the RE320 runs pretty hot and my software it at 25%. So far, I love it. Id suggest getting a shock mount of some type and the mic is pretty heavy so a sturdy arm or boom will make life easier. The PSA1 does great at supporting the weight of my shock mount and the RE320; very smooth and stays right where I need it all day. Read full review...

Studio Sound from RE320 for Ham Radio Equipment

I run this microphone through a commercial audio mixer, which has an equalizer with individual level, treble, mid, and bass controls. Then I feed the mixer output through a Direct Box ( DI ), an impedance matching device, directly to the microphone input connector on my Ham Radio transmitter. Although, the microphone sounds good going directly into the Ham Radio, it does not have enough microphone level gain. Having the mixer in-line allows my voice level to be set in order to talk within the range of 2-4 inches from the microphone. Once the level is set, then my voice can be colored to taste by adjusting the treble, mid, and bass controls on the mixer. I like the full-bodied bass sounding voice results this microphone provides. This type of sound is really appealing for late night talking, when several Ham Radio operators are having a roundtable discussion. However, most of the older Ham Radio operators, basically don't hear the full audio spectrum as well anymore, but usually they can hear sound within the treble to high range audio better. Thus, under the demands of variable conditions, this microphone, when used with a mixer, allows it's full dynamic audio range to excel, no matter which range of audio one chooses to use. I love this microphone. With this microphone, I can make my voice sound deep like the infamous international professional late night shortwave talk radio studio host and announcer, Art Bell.Read full review...

RE320 microphone

I was very pleased to see the mic and case looked like brand new and it works excellent. Because of its sensitivity, it required a few resets on the audio gains, but that was to be expected and the noise canceling design feature is definitely a plus as well, I use this mic for the audio of a broadcast transmitter and get good audio reports from those that I talk to.Read full review...

Wow! What a mic!

This mic is fantastic! First time using an XLR so I had a couple of bumps in the road getting it to play nice with my Scarlet Solo (learning and messing with gains, etc.) but once it was all set up it has been flawless.
I have been using this for gaming, voice overs, streaming, etc. my friends have definitely noticed the audio quality increase from my Sennheiser game one mic. I am completely blown away by how clear and crisp this is. Couldn't have started with a better mic!

The only problem that I'm having with it at the moment is that my webcam won't work when I use this mic for skype calls but that's not saying that there is anything wrong with the mic.

EV RE320 Microphone

I bought this mic for my Amateur Radio Station (N5HW), to use on my primary radio which is a Ten Tec Jupiter. It replaces a Sennheiser e835. What a difference it has made. I get great audio reports wit the mic set in the roll off position with no other processing. It is a large hefty mic so use a good quality stand or boom. Enjoy.Read full review...

Fantastic Mic

It sounds *sooo* good. The frequency response is switchable, between a "broadcast vocal" setting and a "kick mic" setting. It works very well in both roles.
For differences between this and the RE20, the EV Mic guy on youtube can address them in far more depth.
Just know that if you want a nice, bright broadcast mic that DOESN'T require an extraneous 40db of clean gain (Sm7b, I'm looking at you), this is the way to go. IT sounds great on clean vocals, screamed vocals, and handles high-spl signal with ease.
You will love it.

EV-320 Mic.

I am very impressed with this microphone. Generally when a device is designed to do more than one thing something suffers. So far I haven't found any real weakness with this mic. It sounds great for voice-overs, and singing, I have used it to mic my guitar. I have not used it to mic drums which is what the alternate setting was made for. I have used the alternate setting for effect when singing and it worked for what I was trying to do.
Great mic! Get one for your mic locker and use your imagination and it will serve you well.

EPIC Purchase

As a voice over artist and always on the lookout for good deals on equipment, I found this gem. Although mic sound is somewhat a matter of preference, Electrovoice is known worldwide for their superb sound quality. This mic is usually sold for $300. You might be saying, but this is a used mic; well, the condition this mic is in, in and out, believe me when I say that you can't get any cleaner than this. It looks brand new. Anyway, this mic at the price I paid for is worth its weight in gold! I am so happy I got so lucky, especially when you're on a tight budget and are looking for PROFESSIONAL equipment. It's as pro as it gets.Read full review...

Top-Notch Microphone

I have only used it twice thus far and I don't have my settings dialed in perfectly yet, but I love the sound of this microphone and it makes me "feel" more professional using it on my podcast rather than the cheaper, side-address condensers I was using.

I know that is only an emotional reaction to the product, but I think that feeling enhances one's performance when using it.

I chose the RE-320 over the RE-20 (or an SM7B or a variety of other large diaphragm dynamic mics) because I like the "air" in the higher spectrum. I think it suits my low voice better and prevents me from sounding flat or muddy.

Also, I play bass and this mic is apparently also excellent for micing bass cabinets, so I thought it was a good tool to have in the arsenal.
