Hi

Hope someone can help me decide here.

I have come across this new bundle on youtube which was only launched in 2013 and consists of:
Interface / preamp 2i2
Condenser microphone CM25
Headphones HP60

I was wondering if anyone knows who makes the microphone for focusrite here? Could it be a popular microphone already in the market or if this specification microphone is specially made for Focusrite.

Has anyone actually bought this and what do you think of it?
The video on youtube has very good sound quality.

I rang a local music store and the sales guy advised this microphone sounds very much like the nt1a. I also asked him if he knew who made the microphone and he said it's a company in China making for Focusrite / Novation but not sure if it is a microphone already on sale.

Should I buy this bundle or 2i2 (£120) and nt1a (£160) which would come to £280.
I would not mind spending the extra if the nt1a would give me better crisp recordings.

With this bundle also included is Cubase 6 LE.

Thanks
 
Thanks for your reply Alan.
The mic does look like the mxl440 and it could be mxl making the mic for Focusrite.

Still abit undecided about this or the nt1a
