At lengths of 25ft or less, does one notice a reduction in high frequencies when using a quad mic cable, compared to a standard high quality one? Any other considerations to keep in mind about a quad cable?

Thanks,

hello, i need an advice, i need to buy a preamp for vocals my mic is Neumann tlm 103, voicemaster pro is nice ? my budget is $800

thanks

Hi guys any consensus for a lead vocal mic for around $1k - $1.2? I'm waiting on Stephen's mic but need to get something in the meantime.

Been using AT4060 (too dark and boxy for me), TLM 103 (too silibant, sounded compressed next to U87)

I'm picking up a portable CDR or DAT soon for location and sample recording, and I want to aquire a stereo mic for recording ease. The only stereo mic I've used was one of the Audio-Technica s, and it was pretty decent, but if anyone has any opinions concerning the new rode, the Shure, or any others, i'd love to hear them (the Royer is out of my price league right now-). Thanks-

Received this baby at a studio where i work. Sounds unbelievable. The best mic i ever heard. Does anyone know a better one ? Please i need some opinions.
Cheers
Cris

I've been getting really frustrated lately Micing amps and drums, its usually a really time
consuming project running between the studio and the control room listening for changes,I feel
i would get better results if i could hear what I'm doing in real-time. I've tried placing mics

Any users out there?
Opinions on this Mic...
thanks in advance

I was wondering as (I am looking at different microphones) what effect the diaphram thickness has on mic sound or choice (say 3 micron as opposed to 6 micron) Would the thinner the diaphram the more responsive to transients?
Would thicker be more smooth and therefore a better choice for vocals as opposed to something else?

Because compression & normalizing artifacts are more audible with SACD, will their use become less prevelant?

Will dynamic range return?

Will Car SACD players have "compression" buttons?

Are the new higher fidelity formats (SACD & DVD Audio) going to succeed in the market place?

Time to move up to "Big Boy Toys". Based on hours of research, I THINK I have my choices for a good quality/value vocal mic narrowed down to 2.

RODE NTK or Studio Projects C3 (has addtional features over the C1)

I have found pricing within $50 between the 2. I'm trying to stay under $500. Any thoughts?...kpl
