I thought I was more clued in to the mic industry, but I have to admit that I never knew there was a wide cardioid version until today.

Anyone here used it yet?

BTW I never realised just how small these mics are. They look really cool :lol:

Howdy,

Who here owns or makes frequent use of MKH40's ? What is your favorite application for them? I am wondering if they are ok for use as a main pair or at least for emphasizing a section or solist. How would you compare them to TLM193's in similar applications?

I'm curious to hear from folks who've used them extensively.

thanks,

I thought it would be a good idea to put this in a new thread after reading your post on the Small Format Mic Stand thread.

It's an interesting idea to use AT4060s in a Decca Tree. I have always considered this mic to behave like a wide cardioid in its pickup from the front, but ordinary cardioid from behind.

Over time, I've seen a lot of microphone companies tout their wares as "Just like a M49 only better!" or "A U87 you can actually afford..." but rarely these companies actually have a true hit on their hands. (The Studio Project line being one notable exception.)

Howdy,

Nice forum going here - I'm enjoying the discussions and see some familiar folks here from other forums... Congrats on getting this one up and running!

Hi all,

Hey all,

I've been digging this new forum Index! Thanks for all the great info so far, and keep it up!

Was just wondering what some of the fave mics and Micing techniqus are for recording solo classical guitar.

Hi all,
I'm really curious to hear everyone's favourite way to record the piano. To me, this is one of the most interesting challenges in recording classical music. I know it's a huge area, and there are so many ways to do it that there could be an entire classical piano forum.

Has anyone a/b'd these?

Which sound better for overheads, hi-hats and bottom snares? :roll:
