Hi Jose--
Until we have our own Olympic category, it will
be hard to come to agreement about what is
"best," and for several, important reasons. :-)

I personally have concluded that all mics, and
mic arrays have strengths and weakness. None I've
heard so far are close to "perfect" at
documenting the experience I have in the field.
Every time I go out and spend time listening and
setting-up mics, I notice something I have not
noticed before. The tools and techniques at the
very beginning of the recording chain are only
challenged in importance by the end-- hugely
varying "monitoring environments."

This list is great for sharing recordings and
goals. This tends to prompt experimentation and
growth. Your gear looks more than capable. Are
there some qualities in your recordings you'd
like to improve? Rob D.
