And with the sea breeze, in the summer, how do you solve it?
I avoid to go outside in winter...
If only two mics... ?

Understandable and wise.

It was in summer. Indoors.
Checkmate!
Let me go on with the PUI5024 electret project for a short while : if needed and asked for, I'll open a dedicated thread.
So first test in front of the Line Audio Omni1 and here are my first comments :
- PUI5024 has much gain, huge gain, too much gain really !!! Plugged in my (poor little) Edirol UA-EX25 USB powered the gain is almost set to 0. Let's imagine the gain pot going from 7AM (0 gain) to 7PM (full gain) : the Line Audio's gain is set at 2PM (a "normal" setting) while the PUI's one is set at 8AM !!! I must and will replace the 83KΩ resistor by 120KΩ or 150KΩ (150KΩ as I put at first time and which gave me almost the same gain as now but with gain pot set to 11AM)
- PUI5024 is much more sibilant (and that begins to raise from the mids) than LA... but with some EQ I finally get the sound very close to the Line Audio. This EQ (see attached) is a low-pass -4dB from 1800Hz
I guess this first comparative test between the two mics (spoken voice only) has been done fast just to check and does not deserve to be posted here. I'll do some voiceover + acoustic guitar recordings and post the samples asap...
