Nothing much doing so I've posted the quick microphone comparison I
mentioned recently.

These are are a simultaneous sax recording with two different mics, one
costing about 10X the price of the other:

Anybody pick a clear winner?

(Playing and/or recording quality here is nor the issue - both mics
suffered the same treatment and no editing has been done to the
recordings
other than an attempt to match the levels somewhat.)


C'mon boys and girls - no response is not an option! Here are the two mics
in question (still in place):

Like I say: The Neumann (with the requisite pre) is about 10X the price of
the Samson USB mic and I don't think there's a lot in it!

(But that's just me and my 'cloth' ears! ;-)



Could we just have a bit of male speech instead please?..

With some pauses in it ...



OK, Tony, here's my next door neighbour and very good friend Maurice:

Talking 'not posh' (he says he doesn't do 'posh'! :-) thus:

(A and B naming convention is consistent with the previous recordings.)
