    The FULL scoop on Naiants...

    Yeah, he'll switch your order, and there's a 7-day trial period. Check out the application matrix at the bottom of the microphone drop down box under the shop section. It lists, in order of quality in his opinion, the mics he'd use for different reasons. I order the MSH-2s which may not be...

    The FULL scoop on Naiants...

    The X-Q's are his top choice for acoustic guitar. The MSH-2s aren't mentioned as a go to mic for acoustic guitar, but I hear it's good for piano. I wish he had the MSH-1 (s) on the application matrix.

    The FULL scoop on Naiants...

    These sounded pretty good on acoustic, if I remembered correctly. On the naiant website, www.naiant.com there are sound samples of many different instruments. I'm sure acoustic guitar would be one of them. I don't know what mic was used in the clips...someone told me it was the MSH-1 (s) I...

    The FULL scoop on Naiants...

    Hi all, I looked at those mics Dry Country mentioned, and they're MUCH more expensive, so I would expect them to sound very nice.

    The FULL scoop on Naiants...

    I know mshilarious will think I'm ridiculous, but they had the MSH-2s in stock, so I ordered two as they are ridiculously cheap right now. I'm sure I can find a use for them! They're super cute too. Always a factor when purchasing gear.

    The FULL scoop on Naiants...

    Well, I talked to the distributor (who we all know) and he basically told me that the MSH-1's sonically were the same as the X-G's, and that I shouldn't spend my money for a mic whose only real difference is that it has a metal housing and some other small things. So, I commend him for his...

    The FULL scoop on Naiants...

    DryCountry, I got the flat, but then emailed mshilarious to ask him to change the shipping address cause I screwed up. He said he could, but wondered why I didn't buy the X-G for piano as that was his top choice. So, if he'll change my order I'll be happy. I thought I read the site as the...

    The FULL scoop on Naiants...

    I just ordered the X-T's for piano. Got a matched pair. I already had the MSH-1 matched pair, but figured this might be a step up...if not, oh well, I've got 4 good mics. Now, it's time for me to quit spending money!

    Need advice for Layla20 problem

    Hey Mix, How do you like that 3g. I have a Layla 24/96 and wondered if it would be a step up or down. As for the Layla 20 question, I had to have someone else put my soundcard in, so I can't help much. Wish I could!

    Entry-mid level matched pair small diaphragm condenser's for piano and acoustics?

    I bought the naiants...and I'm still trying to find the right mic setup, but I am very happy with them so far. That is the only matched pair I own. I'm using them for piano.

    Input Monitoring/Echo help...

    Have you tried sliding the latency bar to a lower setting? I keep mine around the 4-5 milliseconds. You'll never hear an echo at that setting. You can go higher than that and still not hear a difference, In the tools section I think, there is an audio button you select and it brings up your...

    Sample of piano...

    Well the room has an all wood floor, and I think that's good...I pulled the piano out and angled it. (My living room looks like shit, lol) I'll try your method. I want a good clean sound.

    Best type of mic for piano?

    Another mix up. i think it clipped a couple of places. I was told not to go behind the soundboard, but I tried it anyway. Haha. I haven't tried higher up with my new mics, so I don't know what that sounds like. Basically I want it to sound right when I sing with it. Even though I'll likely...

    Sample of piano...

    Hmmm, I am absorbing all of this! I tried the soundboard again, and it gave me more volume (no compression) but does it sound better? I know I need to screw around with placement. I have no one to play for me to do this mic thing! Try this on. www.kfrosh.com/behind_soundboard.mp3

    Sample of piano...

    Yeah, I have no compressor here, and don't know how to use reaper. Haha. I do want more volume. Compression is probably the key.

    Best type of mic for piano?

    How close would you recommend, and is the lower panel a good place? Or should I be micing the top strings. I thought the soundboard was the best, but maybe not. I put another clip in the listening room and it sounds worse and more quiet than the last. I'm frustrated. Lemme know if there'l...

    Sample of piano...

    I'm not sure what you mean. On this one, I placed the two mics about a foot from the strings, and more than 3 feet from each other. I faced them both inward. I put the panel back on on the bottom strings...I had it off for the first recording. I like these little mics. Should I be placing...

    Sample of piano...

    I don't understand. How close do you suggest? Where? I put the panel back on on the bottom and mic'd it probably about a foot away. One near the treble, one near the bass. should they be closer? Do I point them away from the bass and treble, so they're facing each other basically? I...
