Well, I'd show off my second G7 body, the capsule is still out of a nady 1150 (no dale capsule yet)
but I don't have a decent digital camera.. maybe for christmas.
( I really wanted to take pictures of the test setup.)
But anyway I have been doing alot of testing/listening tests and this sounds alot like what I'm hearing although the 57 like it had more hyped high end to my ear, but my ear preceived it as 4k or so, so maybe my guessing is just off a few K when listening.
This is a plot of a 57 as close to the G7 as possible gained matched with the chimera I made and a Project studios PS 8 speeaker in front of them about 1 ft. Pointing at the middle of the speaker. Both pink and white noise showed the same variation. Here is the white noise snapshot, the red line is just for reference.
G7 is in cardioid more the ^ looking one. not omni or both sides.
57 is a 57.
57 is one of the better mics I found on the mic comparison CD, that or the gold reference.
so that's one reason why I chose it.
Whether or not the speaker/room had anything to do with it should be accounted for in the comparison,
but here is my question: I thought these looked pretty good, but should I try and change the 4k DIP in the G7 with a grill? I am thinking that I get too much 4kish, sounds usually from hyped mics when used in distortion guitar situations so I might like this DIP, it's kind of that edgy area you hear so well in the 57. but it's also why it's very hard when comparing the two because then the 57 has a more brilliant sound and the 1150 sounds a little scouped in comparison.
