With just a little trimming, my rig fits nicely into one of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PUM3AZU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I've tried many different fabric coveri

Hey Morgan, Here’s the trick that I learned from my concert reinforcement days:)… https://m.youtube.com/shorts/A3jgfYXTBT4 Rope or two-conductor shielded, it’s all in ‘preserving the natural lay’! Bes

Thanks,Dan.I have got 30m of balanced cable in the post today.Seemed to work alright in the garden,keeping it tangle free is the challenge. Morgan

Ewan, you wrote, I think real binaural would be so much better. I don’t believe ambisonic decoding produces the inter-aural time delays. -Dan

I had already thought that it was a scattering. Either via the plug connection/cable or via the air. The test shows that it is induced via the air. I haven't opened my ME66 yet, so I can't say whether

Hi Curt, John and all, Rob Danielson did experiment with larger boundary size, which increased only the low frequencies. The head-sized SASS better reflects our own listening experience, although all

Hi Curt, Thanks for documenting the evolution of your mic designs. It was your earlier development of the parallel boundary without the "wings" that inspired me to try that with a foam yoga block inst

I tried a cable and it almost completely eliminated the noise. If I put the transmitter close to the bottom of the base of my Sennheiser mic, I get a loud tone. I tried another Sennheiser base, same r

Thanks. I will do that.

You can try a longer cable between the ME66 and Transmitter to check if the noise comes from the Transmitter or the Transmitter scatters it into the mic. Maby try another mic too if you have one. It's

I bought a Xvive U3C XLR Plug-on Wireless System for Condenser Microphone I connected it to a Sennheiser ME66 shotgun mic and plugged the receiver into my Zoom F3 recorder. I’m getting an annoying ton

Thanks for sharing this Curt I've been thinking of trying this setup but never been sure how I would use it with adequate wind protection I often record in windy settings like at the coast. Any sugges

Thanks for sharing, Curt. Well done and beautiful sounding! I love the imaging. Gotta give that setup a go this spring. Bernie Krause

Here's a simple idea to consider. It a pristine center image, accurate sound source localization and nice depth. https://minnesotasoundscapes.com/mic_rigs.html Curt Olson

I'd love to experiment with the various SASS DIY's out there, but no time. MS is never cheap, it seems. And all of the M/S mics out there--I'm not talking about rigs assembled from two mics, but singl

Thanks Dan.

Hi Chris, How far apart will you be spacing your mics in your AB setup? Just curious. I have not experimented with AB in the field, mostly because I have found such good stereo from more compact array

Thanks John, for the welcome and reply. Yes, my name is Christopher, though Chris is fine. I fixed my screen name, which I had forgotten to set. Normally I'm very happy to experiment but for this proj
