Re: [nfc-l] mic setup

David,

I also use the MP-13 on many of my setups, but like I had talked to you
about, with the blue icicle you can elimanate a lot of the noise associated
with the traditional EK3029c setup by placing in near the microphone. The
Evans style mics are not balanced and unless they are built special it is
hard to do. For the engineers out there on this list ;) what we really need
is a circuit like bills original one that is balanced AND powered by +48v
phantom power!

I have always used the Rolls MP13 and have found it very reliable and
durable.

Hey All-

A group of us in Cape May are going to be building some personal
recording setups in the next week(s). I'm interested in what others are
using in their personal setups, especially the mic element (we're
ordering the Knowles EK3029c, but I noticed that Knowles is making
several new(?) water-proof models), pre-amp (currently I'm going with an
Blue Icicle XLR->USB to go directly into a laptop, but considering the
Rolls MP13 to go directly to my stereo receiver), and recording device
(recorder, computer, etc.; for now I'll be going into my MacBookPro, but
will probably get a dedicated computer... some of us are more interested
in simply having it stream into our home stereo, so we can listen in
real-time).

Anyone want to share their setup, pros/cons, and experiences?

Cheers

David

[nfc-l] mic setup

2010-04-06 Thread David La Puma
Hey All-

A group of us in Cape May are going to be building some personal recording
setups in the next week(s). I'm interested in what others are using in their
personal setups, especially the mic element (we're ordering the Knowles
EK3029c, but I noticed that Knowles is making several new(?) water-proof
models), pre-amp (currently I'm going with an Blue Icicle XLR->USB to go
directly into a laptop, but considering the Rolls MP13 to go directly to my
stereo receiver), and recording device (recorder, computer, etc.; for now
I'll be going into my MacBookPro, but will probably get a dedicated
computer... some of us are more interested in simply having it stream into
our home stereo, so we can listen in real-time).

Anyone want to share their setup, pros/cons, and experiences?

Cheers
