If the humidity is way high, then, yes, the mic diaphram can suffer from over exposure to excessive humidity.ssman said:I have an earthworks qtc40. In the case it comes with, there's a moisture absorber thing.
If I just leave the mic on the stand in my room, rather than putting it back in the box every night, will it be affected over time, or is this ok to do?

I put all my mics away when I'm done with them now, except for the ones in the drums.
EDIT: Actually I have a new favorite large diaphragm condenser (my studio projects c1) and I make absolutely sure it's either in its case or recording something.
