Perhaps you are just used to the way many engineers record flute by putting a mic in front of the mouthpiece, thereby accentuating the high frequency airiness of the tone. That's just not my style. The flute was recorded by aiming the mics at the body of the instrument not the mouthpiece, that's why you don't hear the breathy airiness of the tone. Anyway, it's just another way or concept of recording flute. Like someone else said, it's not about the recording but about the variable implied in the use of the mount. Considering I didn't use EQ the M600 mount bring a focus to the recording that it is often difficult to achieve even with the best EQs. Just my .02 cents.
