Title: Newbie ready to purchase a few more questions
Post by: thekid on March 03, 2009, 10:02:39 AM

I have ordered the Edirol R-09HR and now am wanting to order the mic's. I have decided to order the 9100 from Church but need advice on the mic's. I listen to many types of music and am looking for something that is versatile. I will be doing some taping by stealth as well as some open taping. I thought about the hat from SP as an option for stealth as the croakies look a little out of place with the glasses I wear. My question is if I was going to order the above set up should I get the CA-11's or the 14's? What else would I need as far as accesories, ie clips, etc? If anyone want's to PM me in regards to the stealth please feel free. Thanks for the help I have learned a lot from this forum.

There are plenty of threads like this so don't be shy and start reading the threads.

Go for the CA14 omnis. I would opt out for the clips since they are permanent.

I think that SP hat looks fugly and screams "HEY TAPING HERE."  Get some detatchable clips for the mics for versatility.

I like the sound of the 14 series over the 11, but the only drawback is that there are no interchangable caps with the 14's, so choose wisely, card or omni.

I also like the sound of the CA-14's better, but like Belexes said you can get interchangeable caps with the CA-11's (I did) plus the windscreens aren't permanent on the CA-11's so I would think that they would be easier to stealth.

Thank you for the responses, I think I will go for the CA-11's due to fact they are interchangable. I can always spend more $ later (if my wife will let me). I could always ship the goods to work   >:D.
