Re: Advice please on what mics for recording in quiet outdoor enviro

["Arn=FE=F3r Helgason"]

Hello, Ian.

I have been experimenting with field recordings for some years:
http://hljod.blog.is
For many years I used Senheiser ME-62 and -64. I used mainly the -62
omnidirectionals for spacious stereo recordings to grasp as much of the
environment as possible. But in very quiet environments with low sounds the=
y
were a little too noisy.

Therefore I was vey satisfied when I started using NT-2A and NT-1A from
Rode. The only thing with the NT-1A is that they, as many condenser mics,
are sensitive for moisture.

Please see also

Good luck.
