Actually, nobody buys them, but that is not causal. Neumann has a bunch of "digital" microphones, based on the TLM 103 series, and the KM18* series. They make zero sense. If you want to plug a mic into your computer, say to record a podcast, you don't need a Neumann. And why would you buy a decent mic with their ADC? What if you don't want PCM, and rather want DSD? You'd be locked in. In more general terms, it makes zero sense to buy a new Neumann mic, period. The music industry is a disaster, and the recording studio business is nearly dead. Commercial recording studios are selling for less than the value of their recording lockers (mics alone) with no value at all being placed on the studios, mixers, and value of the ongoing business. If you want a Neumann mic, there are tons of barely used ones available for fire sale prices. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
