Anyone have any experience or opine’ on either of these?
I’m considering them for clamp-on mount for acoustic guitar (primarily) and for recording not live if that matters.
The Audix happens to have a sloping low end similar to the DPA4099g that will probaly help compensate for the rather close distances I’d be mounting. And though they don’t mention it I understand you can swap in any of the Audix micro capsules which is a nice plus.
From what I gather the AT may be a bit brighter than needed.

About $250

That DPA BTW, $600 and small non-detachable wire.. no thanks if I can get around it.
 
Well poo on y'all
I got a M44hc and an omni cap ..did ya know the whole series were interchangeable? I didn't ..coming for a demo :D
 
Huh?
As in 'forsure'forsure?

..slight correction
That's 'forShure-forShure

I do have hopes :)

I did finally as suggested :) try the omni (the mk012' vs card and the hyper) and especially perhaps up close' like that, it is way cooler than I expected.
