A440 Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 Here's a link to some (translated) specs: here Looks like it's got a switchable pickup pattern, and claims it's ideal for MD. Not the lowest bass response, but it might be good for the right price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A440 Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 How are you planning to use it? It would be ideal for interviews where you could sit it on a table and point it at your subject, using the directionality to lessen background noise. My (completely unfounded) guess is that it was an earlier version of Sony's ECM-MS907, though the 907 doesn't have as much bass response, only down to 100 Hz. For similar specs at the same price you might want to look at this mic: http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/...gold/item/ATR25 I don't know if that is a powered mic, though, which is useful for loud situations. Sound Professionals also has an improved "knockoff" of Sony's ECM-MS907, but it'll cost you: http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/...em/SP-ECM-MS907 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin_barbier Posted December 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Yea, i talked the guy down to 25.00 and i made a few recordings with my band and the sound is really nice... caught bass drum and bass guitar really nicely... I guess 25.00 is a good price for a decent powered stereo mic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
