The 4 cables are Sommer Galileo 238, 5 m length. 2 PC, one with Wavelab, one with Cubase AI provided with the MR816X.
*Comments welcome.

i like Schoeps CMC6-MK21.
the FF400 mic-pres sounds warmer... ("more musical")
the Steinbergh MR816 mic pres sound less warmer but more trasnparent. ("more accurate")
maybe was mic placement..
the FF400 has more stereo?
could be the software.
in this test i like FF400.
