Hi all,
Understanding that there has been a need for more economical choices in
parabolic dish microphones, my company will start manufacturing a new parabolic
microphone in just a few months. While DIY parabolic microphones might save
some money, you probably won't be getting a microphone that has been engineered
as a finished microphone system. Our new parabolic design has been engineered
to work with our selected microphones in a manner to increase low frequency
response, lower high frequency peaking, while achieving exceptional low self
noise and acoustical efficiency. The parabolic dish microphone will be
available in several models, from basic mono, mono/stereo, to one including our
universal microphone preamplifier (another new product currently in design). In
combination with our preamplifier, you can have a fully adjustable, stereo,
zoom microphone. All the choices will be lower in cost than any other
professional parabolic dish microphones currently available.
I never liked paying too much for my equipment and spent years engineering all
my own equipment to out perform available equipment and now want to extend that
knowledge to produce exceptional recording equipment at reasonable prices. I am
bringing everything I have learned about recording nature sounds and electronic
engineering to producing the best field equipment available. While the
equipment will be available through my current company, a new company name, to
better suit equipment sales is in the works.
