MBHO history
« on: August 30, 2006, 10:09:45 PM »
I'd like to learn about the mics I'm currently running.  All I know is Schneider studied under the tutelage of Dr. Schoeps in Germany for sometime.  Anything on this history of this company, materials/techniques, or general thoughts would interest me.

I believe the same can be said for MBHO, worked with schoeps at one point or another but I could be wrong.

Good mics though...

Marc Nutter would be the guy to ask. Sonic Sense was one of the first retailers I knew of to carry MBHOs, and he seems to be really knowledgeable about the company.

Yup, I had some Josephson C-640's. Which were basically MBHO 648's (transformer coupled) with the option to run with an internal battery or 48 v DC phantom power. I bought mine from Josephson in 1990. Contrary to what most people report about David now, my experience with him at that time was not good. I did have a good experience with MBHO, through Mr. Haun in Germany though.

Yeah, Nutter can probably tell you all about the MBHO's...

Seriously, the band makes the music. Tapers just point mics in the right direction and hit "record".

That's good to hear!  The last patcher I had complained about my AKGs, fluffed schoeps for about 15 minutes, stayed patched in, and farted on me all night long.

Um, in my room, one seam is a little off and I stare at it constantly. It's, like, destroying me.

went and stayed with marc and parker for panic this year at Red Rocks.  Parker is still a very big MBHO supporter and knows her stuff.  however; my neumann's still pulled better tapes.
