hello,

when recording with sennheiser mkh 30/60 in empty rooms,
very quiet nature ambiences or with a high gain preamp setting
(pro grear) i listen clearly and see later in the RTA a strange emphasis
noise curve from +-5khz to 20khz ...

this happen the same way to both mkh, but not at all to any other
of my mics ...  any thoughts? maybe mkh doesn=B4t like silence?...

i=B4m also asking directly to sennheiser germany for curiosity...
spanish sennheiser tech service says that my mics are calibrated
but nothing more...

thank you and best regards,
jc

pd. rough test -> emptiness studio room -> mkh60 (all switches off)
