Now I am wondering if the direct mechanical coupling between the wood
and mics might not be a really positive factor. Is it possible that the
wood is actually picking up some of the incoming waves and adding them
to the overall effect. Yes, there is an increased risk of extraneous
sounds from accidental impact with the rig. But there may be a
beneficial "other side of the coin." When I tap on my own head very
gently, I am amazed at how little force is required to make an audible
sound through bone conduction. And that is dampened by skin and hair. I
would be interested to know if shock mounted or damped mic mounts on
this rig would yield the same airiness and spatial definition. .. .
just wondering.
