I was watching this show on Discovery@ Channel the night before and they had a shot of the mic in the lethal injection chamber in Texas. The shot was only like 2 seconds long but I saw the mic. My guess from those two fleeting seconds was that the mic was a Shure SM-57 or 58. The overhead mic was placed in the death chamber to record the last statements of the prisoner before he was murdered by the state.

My question is, if you had a choice: What microphone would you choose to record your last thoughts?
 
*shakes head*

Hix, hix, hix, hix, hix......

Big yikes!

It would have to be a Sony C12 for me! Please run it through a Telefunken pre!

I would not want anyone to miss a bit of the accuracy of my last statement in life.

You are a stupid fuck hixmix. But you know that already, so that statement is preaching to the choir. But your post count is looking great! Keep up the meaningless threads and posts! The Village Idiot is usually considered a nobel profession, and I believe all should pursue what they are good at.

You have found your niche....;)

I'd request a Neumann (just because they're really expensive), make that two for stereo, along with the crab cocktail, three pound lobster and filet mignon last supper. Has life gotten so cheap that society will only spend $99.00 to record its last gasps? Well, wardens aren't supposed to know any better when it comes to microphones, are they?

sonusman, you're probably a really nice guy, aren't you?
 
Hey Village Idiot, actually I am.

I just like to call retards names. My one fault, and passion.

I'd want a gun that looks like a mic. That way, I could grab it and escape.
 
If I could replace a mic with a gun, I'd use it to blow my own head off because I'd rather be shot than electrocuted, I couldn't escape anyway, and they'd have more to clean up. If I couldn't get the gun in, I'd hope for a radio shack mic. An execution shouldn't sound TOO good, should it? I would also ask to have it tape to a state-owned boom box.

Hey Ed, I bet you're like a "Henry Rollins" nice.
