Hi all, I've been recording bird sounds for a few years but I am no expert on the t= echnical side of this hobby. I use an Edirol and a Sennheiser ME66. I have just a quick equipment question: Is there a major difference in quality in mic cables? For instance, if I bu= y a cheap cable for <$10 on ebay, is it likely to produce inferior recordin= gs compared to a $30 cable from a reputable specialty retailer. Links to a couple examples are below. Thanks for any advice!
