Perfect info... precisely what I was looking to know. And not too surprising. Except for the heavy part... Still it'd have to be a lot better than hauling the ol' MOTU and affiliated crap around.
Your comments really make me wonder how it would stack up against the $80 Samson, sound, weight, and durability -wise. A cool retro look is nice, but when you're talking, after all, about hauling something around, heavy doesn't necessarily equate to cool.
I'm reading between all the lines everywhere, here, and guessing this is more a 'character' mic. (As opposed to a flatter 'accurate' mic.) Would you say that's the case? Do you notice a big change in prox effect and frequency response when you switch from cardioid to omi?
Multi-pattern seems like a really good thing to have on a mic for multipurpose laptop work. If you were doing an interview, that, right there, could be invaluable. And having the pad could be important, since it appears there's no other gain or level setting, yeah?
Yeah, on the multiple USB mics, I don't see how you could do it in Windows. I think Apple said they were going to add the ability to work with multiple unsynchronized digital audio sources to Logic (or was it the OS?), but I haven't heard anything since.
It'd sure be nice if you could just plug a pair of them into your USB ports, y'know? If I understood what Apple was promising, I don't see why you couldn't do that.
