I have AT3032 (older omnis) and AT4041 (newer cardiods), and they both have=
 -10dB pad switches (and bass roll-off switches), and I find I'm switching =
the pads in and out from one recording situation to the next.=A0 I have not=
 (yet!) had a situation (drum overheads, percussion) where I needed more SP=
L handling than the pad switches afford.

On the other hand, even the best mics can break at an inopportune moment, a=
nd having back-up mics in the kit can mean the difference between a slightl=
y less optimal recording and no recording at all.
