Thanks Don & Lou I can't wait to see what I got and how it works. I would still like to get my hands on the fat head. A word in general about Cheap mics. They are a great thing I would rather have a couple different Cheaper mics that sound great but a little different Than one mic that sounds Amazing and is 75% of the budget of my studio. Again it all comes down to listening. As engineers we need to learn to listen and not go on what someone else says sounds good. If you listen to a $2000 mic and a $200 mic and do not hear $1800 difference WAIT until you do, then buy it. The very practice of getting the best out of that $200 mic is what we need don't walk before you crawl. I have heard Crappy recordings done on expensive equipment. I know, I know, I'm preaching to the choir. It's just my 2cents worth, or $1800
