The microphone capsule photo and information thread

If it works, it works. If it sounds good, it sounds good…

I will test it tomorrow morning and hope for the best...EASZYMOD M251 is waiting!

Let's keep this thread as factual as possible, the topic is microphone capsules, you can talk a bit more about a certain capsule, but please no negative discussions about marketing lyrics of individual manufacturers. Thank you!

I am confused. I was making a joke. The quote is a Bill Murray line from the movie Ghostbusters. Maybe it was Lost in Translation? (Another Bill Murray movie) Besides, everyone knows that microphones don't need souls, as they are a little slice of heaven all by themselves. However, back to the fake JZ. Based on your experience with other capsules that come in dual and single-side options, do you think I should expect any tonal difference between the dual-sided vs. the single-sided versions of this one? I realize you can't know for sure, but in general, based on the group's experience, if that's fair to ask.

I assumed you were asking about the fake JZ, but if I am wrong and you were addressing another member, my sincere apologies. I'm GenX, so I'm used to it all being about me .

Back to the actual topic, how would you deal with such a situation?

Does this protrusion of the membrane material have any negative effects?
Trash can, need for action or just ignore it?

PS: I didn't pay anything for this Rayking capsule.

You can ignore it, no negative effects. But you can easily remove it with an exacto. It's a good capsule.

If it works, it works. If it sounds good, it sounds good…

There are many cases where a capsule, or any gear, checks those boxes, and yet ugly side, anomaly, error hapens when you expect it the least, and you have no idea where it came from. This is especially true for any kind of transducer.
