Topic: Ideal Setup (Esp. to get bass frequencies)

[RoganSarine]

ylt, I'm not sure I would draw a conclusion that larger capsules capture deeper bass.  That's true with speakers, but not with mics.  It's a different set of physics.

True, and I should not have made that correlation. But since Rogan is open taping, why not check out some other mics that are known to pick up more low end?

A pair of Nak's would run me like $500, wouldn't they?

2) A lot of clubs have a big row of subwoofers along the front of the stage.  If there is a wall of people squeezed up against that, and your mics are back a ways, I've seen cases where recordings are less bassy than I expected.  I assume it's simply the bodies between you and the subwoofers block that low frequency energy.

A lot of it is rock music played in clubs, and the bass guitar is often lost in the mix. I havn't taken the 9200 for a true genuine spin yet, since I'm waiting for my CA14's. But I will try what you recommend. In actuality, I totally forgot to check the low cut on the m10.

Although they are popping up less frequently, Nak's can be found for around $150. Plus they usually come with omni and card caps. You do, however, have to feed them these fairly expensive 9v batteries--they are around $10 apiece, but do last a very long time.
