Very good advice... and don't drop them.Richard Monroe said:Yo Memo! A couple of tips- The writing on the bodies, including the cardioid symbol on the caps will wear off if handled frequently. Also- The threads on the components are very fine, so be *very careful* not to cross-thread them. Gentle handling will go a long way here. They are very prone to "popping", so I often use pop filters even when using them as guitar mics. For vocals, try 2 pop filters, 5cm apart. Best of luck-Richie
This, of course, is good advice for any mic. That said, I've never dropped the entire mic, but I've dropped the capsules several times (on carpet) with absolutely no effect in the sound.DJL said:Very good advice... and don't drop them.
I've never dropped any mic or part of a mic before... but I've tossed a few in my days.cominginsecond said:This, of course, is good advice for any mic. That said, I've never dropped the entire mic, but I've dropped the capsules several times (on carpet) with absolutely no effect in the sound.
That's all right. We just need to be more civil to the people we encounter on these boards. It's easy to forget you're dealing with real people. I'm sorry I said you were a moron.DJL said:Hey, I'm sorry for calling your stuff shit, that was uncalled for on my part and I'm sorry for that rude comment.
Yeah I know, but you and I could go a few rounds for fun again if you want? J/Knoisedude said:that's beautiful i love it when people make up. DJL do you remember when we made friends? I've hardly dropped on the Mic board since cos of the lack of a decent flame war
