Re: Simple set up for concert recording?
Ilya, Here is a very short piano excerpt. There are three stereo files: 1) Mix of front pair (0db) plus rear pair (-4db) 2) Front pair only 3) Rear pair attenuated by about 4 db

Hi there. I tried to watch that video with the link provided but I got a message, "This video isn't available anymore" Any chance this video can be found elsewhere? I'm eager to have a listen to these

Re: Do microphones age and how?
Electret's are pre-aged. That improved the stability enormously compared to first generation electret's. Op zo 12 nov. 2023 13:14 schreef Ralf R Radermacher <fotoralf@...>:

Re: Do microphones age and how?
This is a great question. They do age, I don¡¯t think there have been studies on it. Ribbon and condensers will have physical changes due to stretching tensioning etc. electrolytic caps age, can dry

Re: Simple set up for concert recording?
That's an interesting concept. Do you have any raw source files for this system? I'm curious to listen to what can be done. Thanks! Ilya

Re: Simple set up for concert recording?
Wow. Yet another great video from Jules. And a really good mic. I made this video on STAAG technique about 5 years ago. STAAG has some similarities to the dual Endora in that it is comprised of two

Do microphones age and how?
There's a number of imaginable ways in which microphones might change their properties over time. I'm not so much thinking about components like electrolytic capacitors etc. but the capsules

Re: Simple set up for concert recording?
I have been using dual output microphones in traditional stereo setups (ORTF etc) and then changing the patterns in pos. Works really well. I record high school choir and orchestras where the number

The AKG D200, D202, D220 and Oktava MD186 mics are all dual capsule, cardioid, with next to no proximity effect and excellent bass with their dedicated bass capsule.

Re: Simple set up for concert recording?
That¡¯s all correct except one thing. Spaced omnis do make great recordings and nice stereo. You just don¡¯t put them a meter apart as is often suggested. Instead, use a narrower setup with 30-40cm

Re: Capsule damage during soldering
You don't want to use thin solder wire as you will spend unnecessary time pushing it into the joint, adding extra heat. I usually use 0.6mm to 0.8mm rosin core. The Pinecil64 soldering iron has served

Re: Capsule damage during soldering
I can second your recommendations, but I'm just wondering why you use IPA. Can you explain? It does not remove oxides, only organic contaminations. Flux would remove oxides and improve wetability, but

Re: Simple set up for concert recording?
The Thomann RB100 is a phenomenal mic - for upgrading with a 1.2um ribbon. I have mounted two together as a Blumlein stereo pair and the results are superb. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eafgdu5DINs

If you really want to remove heat then cover the mic holes with a little sticker and put some water between it and the heatsink. _______________________________________ Gee ... um ... I would not
