hi tim:

everything i've ever heard is that the sennheiser is the mic of=20
choice for
humid recording - i wish i had a pair myself
how much would a rig like that cost?

it just occurred to me, and feel free to veto,
but maybe we could pool resources between rizzo and you and me
and share the sennheisers - bounce them back and forth as needed?

just a thought...
my mic cabinet is a little overstuffed with music mics
to be able to justify more field mics
when i don't get to the jungle very much!

hope you're well and happy
cheers
k
