How far in to the infrasound do you need to go?  Many good omnidirectional=

tests of microphone frequency response usually stop at 10 Hz, but there's n=

Don't try to make an infrasound recording using either cardioid or Fig8

roll off below about 150 Hz or so when used at a distance.

I am in need of a good infrasound microphone. I do own the SD722 so

assume I have the correct field recorder to record infrasound.

Thanks,
