What material do you cover the hoops with? What about fake animal fur, such as what is on teddy bears?

How did you make the disc?

I've heard it both ways. Someone has told me they've always left the power on with no problems. Anyone know the truth about this?

What does the v63 sound like?

Anyone tried this mic with the 9V battery and could say what it sounds like?

Yeah, I've noticed that with other mic's. I believe something just like that has happened when turning the phantom power off.

I EQ and then compress. Just today I came upon a novel situation for me where I had to use a good amount of de-essing and I experimented where to put it. I found that the de-esser was much more effective after compression than before it.

I also do similar type of recording but I never am sure whether to start with the spots and then bring up the room, or start with the room and bring up the spots. Is there any rule of thumb on this?

I've owned HD280s and also Beyerdynamic DT770Ms at the same time and the Beyers give much more isolation. The Beyers are also more comfortable.

So, from looking at the tape it would be apparent that it needs baking, with the surface flaking off? Or, how does one know if it needs baking?

Does baking apply to cassette tapes, too? What about the cassette plastic tape case? Okay in an oven?

This is what I was wondering -- how it would work out for mid-side recording? The recordings aren't real "critical" but I'm wondering if it would work out okay?

Just wondering if anyone has compared to see if the front side sounds the same as the back side?

Harvey, does a bidirectional mic have more proximity effect than a hypercardioid? Am I correct in assuming that a hyper has more proximity effect than a cardioid?

Thanks, all, that helps. One thing I notice is that the larger ribbon mics seem to have a different frequency curve as compared to the Beyerdynamic M 160, as can be seen on the Datasheet at Beyer's site...

Just wondering if anyone knows of any frequency response charts for Nady, Apex, etc. ribbons?

BigRay, any advice on where to find some tall mic stands, such as brand/model? Or do you use light stands with an adapter?

bubbagump, so you liked the OM5 a lot more than the S1?
