tpruss00 Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Has anyone ever used the Sony ECM-DS70P for a live concert before ? Do you need a bass roll off, or possibly the Radio Shack Volume Att. ?Anyone know of a great single point mic ?Just interested in everyone's opinion. I used some mic's from sound professional's before to record Interpol & Bright Eyes. They worked awesome, but I want a simple single point mic, I didn't like going thru the whole setup and having wires running everywhere...Thanks for the responses guys !!

A440 Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 You don't need bass rolloff because the DS70P has no bass: its range is 100-15000 Hz. It's also bigger than you think it's going to be, if stealth is one of your considerations. Why not try this:http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/...=specificationswhich is probably the same as your other SoundPros mic in a one-point arrangement, and cheaper than the DS70P. Frequency response: 20-20,000 Hz, and you'd probably want to use it with an attenuator (mic-in) or a battery module (line-in) if you're recording anything amplified. The DS70P's advantage, is some situations, is that it's directional--it's supposed to record primarily what's in front of it instead of all around. But I think you would find it sounded tinny after a full-spectrum (20-20000 Hz) mic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akijikan Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 I made just one recording with it and I can already see its short comings. It is definately tinny.I'm going to have to make some binurals soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
