Don't waste your time.  Neither of those mics can hold up against the 4023s.

mmmm, lemo connectors

4021s and 4022s are the same mic.  the cable just comes out of the 21s at a right angle, vs straight out the back on 4022s

Gotcha. Thanks Scott. Learn something new everyday

alright, ran the 722 wide freaking open last night on both mine and boswells rig...he ran schoeps subcards into the 722 and I ran MG200s into the 722...I have not heard his yet (he tells me it sounds great, tough for me to believe since they were schoeps caps ), but listening to mine now and this sounds fantastic.....in the cases where it had a slight, the 722 has a similar sound to the V3, very slight compression, barely audible....will post more comments after I do some more listening

as in full throttle, at 10? pegged WF'nO?
This is where I'm really curious as I run the V3 at 65 -> 70dB regularly. So I'd likely being running this thing at full throttle as well.

no, not full throttle...I have run my levels very conservatively with the 722 so far since I am still learning the unit...and the metering makes it difficult until you get used to it, to try to hit zeros, so I was concerned about overs...well last night, I ran it so I would peak at zero and didnt worry about the occassional over (like i did with the V3 before) and those are the results I was describing....

[F.O.Bean]

i bet it rocks hitting zero occassionally, i found that doing that even opened my old dmic up nicely, and the v3 run open like that is the shizzle, so much dynamic range and such nice levels

[nickgregory]

thanks nick.

no problem...having gotten 4 hours of sleep I sometimes I am not very clear in my typing...
