I've had no experience with any CAD microphone, but it looks decent enough to record vocals with as compared to an AKG C1000 that I used to record everything on my band's first album when I was just starting out.
I have the Cad. It is really a good mic for the money. I heard an incredible vocal that some guy cut (chick singer). I dont know what preamps he used but he cut it in his bedroom and the Cad 100 did a great job.
i have had some good results with it too, but not as good as the one I heard from this guy at sam ash.
get it,,
I have one that I used pretty much exclusively in the recording of my CD "Cut & Clarity". With the exception of kick drum on two tracks, everything else was recorded with the E100.
I have to say that I was only using the mixing console's mic pres, and the compressor I was using at the time was not the best, but it should at least give you an idea of the sound of the mic.
For the money, I'd say it's a good, versitile mic.
