Hi Jez,
Heres an alternating recording using the XY and Omni mics. The seq=
uence is always XY then Omni, XY,Omni etc. Not a quiet location but may giv=
e some idea of the mics in 40-45dBA SPL.

Handling noise at the start, The foam cover is in place over the mics.
Sensitivity low, gain dial near 5 oclock.
