Hey guys, I just upgraded to a Sennheiser 559 and I am going to buy a modmic.

 

Now, coming from a corsair vengeance 1400, should I get a modmic 4 or 5?

It is a 30 euro difference...

 

Thanks guys

Can you explain the differences?

 

Like differences for dummies style?

The 5 has two capsules, the 4 has one.

I'm happy with my modmic 4. I don't think the 5 is a good value, but if you have extra to spend, it is slightly better.

If you have the extra modmic 5 is really nice. I think overall it has better build and the dual uni omni directional capsules is really useful

Howdy! So, as the marketing guy here at Antlion I want to say thank for considering us for your mic solution :)

 

Here's the brief breakdown of the 4 vs 5.

 

ModMic 4:
Fixed 3 meter long cable

Uni-Mode Only (Noise canceling)

One version with In-Line Mute Switch (Switch is built into the cable)

One version without the mute (7 dollars cheaper)

 

ModMic 5:

Modular cable with 1 meter and 2 meter included. Can be combined for 3 meters.

Omni Mode (Better for recording in a quiet environment) and Uni Mode

Modular Mute Switch (Can be removed)

Cable Wraps for different style cable management

 

 

Both ModMic 4 and 5 have the following:

Cable Clips, extra adhesive, and extra base clasp

Awesome hard-shell carrying case

Our satisfaction guarantee, 30 days

Our 1 year warranty

Our amazing customer support

 

And none of them have:

A USB adapter (You want this if you are planning on jacking directly into a PC motherboard probably)

A Y adapter (You want this if you plan on using a PS4/XBox1 OR tablet/smartphone)

 

Hope that helps!

Director of Marketing for Antlion Audio, creators of the ModMic.
