<<I've taken 414's out a few times. I'm not sure why, but they were noisier than the specs would suggest, a tad "warm" and they had more issues with the wind than I'm used to.>> I've also found C414's to not fare very well outside of studio contexts. Although many studio recordists complain about a perceived brittle high end on these mics, I feel a more bothersome characteristic is a wooliness in the 160Hz to 200Hz region, which I suspect is the overly "warm" response you refer to. They are extremely susceptible to mechanical vibration as well. Scott Fraser |
