SuperLux Stereo mics ...

Here's the manual for the E524D

Looks interesting. Same concept/design as the rode nt4

And Audio-Technica AT2022..

Yes, I was considering the AT2022, as well. It's still twice the price of the Superlux, here in the UK....  Would be nice to hear a comparison between them....

Miles, Being an XY mic, the E524D will be more suited for close micing, Two separate mics can give you more placement options and patterns, in exchange for a bit more complexity.

I too am curious to hear how it sounds.

[Miles]

Thanks Scoobie.

Most of the recording I'll be doing will be within 2 metres of source.

For separates, the Superlux S241 seem quite suitable?  How would I power them,  though? Is there a pass through unit for adding phantom power?

I use the Denecke PS-2 (P48 for two mics) Then you need to have an adapter cable built to convert from balanced to unbalanced audio. Some modify the PS-2 output cable itself.

Mics > Denecke PS-2 > M10 is my main rig.

Thanks.  I'll give this approach some more thought......

Hi all Tapers,

I am using (with others mics)

the cheap (but great) Superlux S502.

You can hear some audios I made with it
for some Belharra Trio Live concerts (Classical Music)

http://bit.ly/belharratrio

or directly :

Recorder was a Zoom F8 (1 concert),
then now, a Sound Devices 788T (all others concerts with
Ortf Mic and MidSide Mic togethers to make a choice after concert...).

These records are left without any Post Production.

Good listening
