[quote author="Rossi"]Sounds cool. Are these normal LD dual diaphragm capsules or something smaller?
I think an SD dual diaphragm capsule mic would be cool. Nobody seems so build multipattern SD mics anymore. And with today's low noise electronics and capsule designs, a mic like that could be more interesting than ever.[/quote]
The capsules I am using are 34mm. I do like the idea of using sd's for multipattern/multicapsule microphones. In fact I have some SP C4 capsules that I made for this very purpose, but I have not had a chance to build anything up with them as of yet. I think you can get spectacular results with this if it's done right. And I have also found that low noise circuits can be designed to sound pretty damn nice. But in the pursuit of making a mic dead quiet, I think it is also adviseable to play around with the overload characteristics of the circuit. Having the lowest achievable distortion seems logical, but is 'not always' sonically pleasing overall.
No distortion may be better than too much, but there is space to work between the two extremes and I think that this is where the really pleasing results occur. One man's opinion...
Then again, there are mics like the Gefell M930 which are low noise and low distortion and just Kick Ass.
