Topic: advice for mics which make you feel the energy of a concert!

[Church-Audio]

The only reason why most people would recommend a battery box or a preamp is that most MINIDISC recorders built in mic preamp sucks. And you are better off in most cases unless this is a really new md with a gain control for the mic input + the two level sensitivity switch. That you should use the Line input and not the mic input, as it will handle much more input level with out distortion. Even though your not looking for the best quality, distortion makes any recording useless to listen to. No mater how bad or good the mic is.


Its better to spend the extra few dollars and get a battery box especially when someone like me will sell it to you for $20!!! then to find out later that you did in fact need one. The users on here have been there done that. They know just like I do that in most cases you need at the very least a battery box and the ability to go into the line input. Its not all about voltage ether its about the fact that your line input will not power your mics so you need an external source to do so. If your mic input was designed properly ( most are not ) it would have the ability to attenuate before it gets converted into a digital signal. By then the front end of the preamp is over driven and no amount of digital attenuation after the fact can help that.

I am really not trying to sell you anything but if you want that deal I offered it still stands and when I get a proper email address from you I will send you a few samples of the recordings made with this mic you can also ask around here a lot of people here have my cardioids. I am sure they would be more then willing to send you a few seconds of a sound sample.

ok!
i would like to hear the difference with and without this power box because i am not a "hardcore quality sound sound" (and specialist too!)
i just want a slistenable memory to share andfor me which is listenable and cool to listen, thats why i wanted a new mic because the ecm-719 are not that clear despite , as i said, in my opinion they make you really feel the power/energy of the show... perhaps it is just because they are "bad" and i just like "bad" mics...well... i dont know lol but i also like very good mics but in my opinion, you almost listen to a studio album when you have very good mics! thats why i am not really interested in it though the sound is incredible!
also, another thing, i d like to have a mic which doesnt make the difference if you dance or not!
with the ecm-719 i went to some concerts and it ididnt make the difference when i was dancing or not when you listen to th recording afterwrds...
and Moke, the mics of Chris are 149 dollars, and only for canada and U.S! so.... though i pmed him to have some info!

 Tell you what $89.99 for my Cardioids and $20.00 for my battery box because I am in a good mood. Thats all you need to record concerts and have good sound quality and I do ship to your location please tell me where you are.

Nice +T.  Get more of your mics out there.  The best thing about these is they will not overload.  At least not at human sound levels!

I can honestly say if it was not for the USA I would not have a business. And if it was not for my American wife I would not have the life I have today. I love the USA!! I wish I was American some times. But I love Canada to much to leave her. Thanks for all your kind words.
