Walt,
Thanks for the answer! As always, you handle the subject with great
eye for detail.
As far as phantom power concerns, most of my mics have their own
supply.
I do not have that many mics;
- a Sony ECM-S957 which has its own battery
- OKM II K S which has its own Preamp with built in 6 V phantom
- a Telinga Pro V, to be delivered any day now (Klas hurry up!). It
should have its own power supply built in.
All my other mics are not for outdooruse; they are music mics
requiring high levels of soundpressure to deafen my ears so you won't
tell the ringing from the selfnoise :)
OK, enough jokes.
The MP2 sounds like a very good deal; build for the outdoors (it has
been tested by dropping on concrete!), build for the pro recordist.
Its options do attract me. I only wonder if it won't be a waste to
connect this good device to my consumer MD-recorder; there is always
a weakest link in your signal path, would having such a very good pre
be worthy of working together with the Sony MZR-55, or with nowadays
MD recorders?
Regards, Evert
