Hi everyone,
I can't believe I got this off eBay for only $73. The guy that sold it knew nothing and never tested it. The switches are missing but I can use a screwdriver. I was the highest bidder! I took a chance that it would work. It does! 100% looks almost brand new. No pop filter or shock mount. I found a pop filter non-branded version that looks the samenfor $10. I have a shock mount already no need to get one of those. The mic IMO sounds amazing! I contacted blue microphone company and they said they don't sell switches or replacement parts. I was actually surprised.?
Anyone know where I can replacement switches? I looked everywhere.?
I was looking up specs and to my surprise the old original version had a self noise of 5.5 dB. The SL version has a self noise of 10.8 dB. How did this happen? Because of the switches? Is there extra ways to reduce noise down on the mic? I know I may be going a little bit extreme when it comes to self noise. But I want as low self noise as possible!
Thanks,
Jesse
