« on: August 02, 2004, 09:02:53 PM »
Does anyone run the AKG CK94 figure eight capsules with your blue line mics?

Me, very nice combo with the CK93 for MS setup, but usually I use them for ambisonics arrays

I like to use mid-side so CK 94 was one of the reasons I went with AKG Blue Lines. It's an expensive capsule new but used deals do show up on them occasionally.

Here is one recording I made with CK94 and used a CK98 for mid in this one.

I used to run the blue lines and have nothing bad to say about the sound, but the ck94 is really expensive for what it is and does.

Folks interested in paying around with m/s might want to look at this as another option:

Nice sound.  I have that mic combo.
Have you used it outside?  Just wondering what kind of imaging you'd get with the CK94.
I need to set them up next time on two additional tracks.
