Final hours...

I'd be surprised if you're damaging anything. I guess the only worry would be a wayward drumstick. But if you're happy with it, stick too it! Don't get caught up in "if I only had..." frenzy if you can help it. (if I only could take my own advice!!!) But if I can't change your mind. Keep an eye...

I just used my earthworks SR71's for this purpose. Nice results. I think the modern equivalent would be the SR30's. I mention EW's directional microphones because it sounds like you're going to use the same mics to amplify as well as record, right? The cardioid pattern should help with the...

It's been a good investment for me. Pretty open and clean. Great bang per buck. You won't see these on ebay often...

Have more bills to pay. Hate to let it go...Ugh! http://cgi.ebay.com/HHB-Radius-10-Quad-Valve-Microphone-Preamp-by-TL-Audio_W0QQitemZ7360522924QQcategoryZ23792QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

a couple days left....

Thanks for the clips! Those do sound pretty good. Do you have a picture of your JDisk and 4060 set up? BTW the diaphrams are supposed to be 8 inches apart with the jdisk inbetween right? I think I read that some where.

That's a good idea. Harvey, do you think these DPA's are a good solution? Sadly I don't have much time any more to experement. It seems strange a lapel mic would get so much acclaim, but perhaps they're really the shizzle.

NICE! This is the most helpful site ever!!! :D

I have no advice for you, just sympathy. I got screwed on an ebay 441 with the same problem. Sennheiser told me it would be $350+ to fix. Jerk that sold it to me figured it to be my fault some how. Sorry man, I feel for you. Definately file a claim if you can. That crap can't stand!

I looked into the the DPA's, I didn't realise they were lapel mics. How do you mount these on a mic stand?

Thanks! I'm going to look into the DPA's. I didn't realise they were so affordable. An audio clip would be great! I'll get back to you regarding the jdisk. How much would you want for it? PM me if you get a chance. You probably already know this, but that's a great city you live in. Wish I...

I think they call that "vintage"

Well I was pretty married to Cardioids until you guys reminded me of the jecklin disc and omni combo. Most of my liking has been ORTF or XY due to the one tall stand needed and the tight center image. I'll have to open my mind to omni's now. I've worked with QTC1's before but I can't afford...

Hi, Does the Earthworks company make a cardioid mic that doesn't roll off steeply after 125hz? I'm planning to do some stereo classical and jazz ensemble recordings and my SR71's seem to lack the low end I'd need for a Wind Ensemble/Concert band. The SR 77's (Sr 30's) seem to have similar specs...

If you're good with a soldering iron, Check this out from tape op... http://prosoundweb.com/recording/tapeop/buildmic/buildmic_16_1.shtml I just built a pair and can't believe mics I built sound this good. I will say, not a lot of high end hype, but for some genre's "real" is better. BTW the...

Back in the ADAT days, a band I was playing with recorded with this guy who had a Peavey Tube microphone that looked egg like sort of like the old RCA's or an AEA 84. Any one know about this? I was just taking a trip down memory lane and couldn't find any information on my own.

Hate to let it go, but I gots to pay the bills. TL Audio Ivory 2 Quad Mic Preamp http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7358720602&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1

Upright Bass is really tricky and, from my experience, I think the DI off his/her pickup won't be much help. One trick I learned a while back was to wrap a hypercardiod in foam with the capsule sticking out and tuck it in between the tail piece and the body pointing up towards the bridge. It...

Oh by the way, you can hear some TL Audio stuff compared to other pre's of higher and lower monetary value in http://www.thelisteningsessions.com/session2.htm
