That's some great info on that chart you supplied the link for Grant;
many thanks!

All of this is making me even more eager to find out about the
Sennheiser MKE44-p. Does this mic actually exist??!! Reports of
sightings / hearings appreciated.

Another mic that I've come across is the Studio Projects LSD2...no,
seriously, that *is* the model number!

http://www.studioprojects.com/lsd2.html

It seems to have the perfects combination of being a single-bodied
beast  yet having the flexibility of multiple pick-up patterns for
each capsule. However (you just knew there'd be a downside...right?),
it seems to be based on their C1 model, which has a self-noise of
17db, and I'd like to get it down to 13db or thereabouts. [sigh]

In desperation I'm even thinking about the possibility of a pair of
Rode NT2a or NT2000, superb low self-noise, multi pick-up patterns,
just a darn bugger to build a windshield for and use in the field.

More suggestions very welcome!

Dave.
