Someone wisely asked, "how about letting us hear a test of the Portable VO Mic Box you built." Good idea.
When I use the the box, I will most likely use the Sennheiser MKH 416 because of its narrow focus on the sound. That may not be a fair test of the box to use it. So for this test, I grabbed a larger diaphram condenser that's more sensitive to ambient sounds.
We added compression to the test because compression usually enhances any room noice. So you will hear both takes--without and with compression.

If you didn't see how we made the simple Portable VO Mic Box, it's two blog post back.

which mic did u you use for that test? thanks.
Max,
Right now, probably the most sensitive mic in the house is the new Audio Upgrades MCA SP-1 and that's the one we chose.
All of our other mics are great, but each has a "sound." The SP-1 has a flatter response curve and a pretty full frequency response too.
Thanks, Willie
wow that SP-1 sounds dang good especially with the voice. it has a little bit of hiss in it but when you put it over a track it wont be heard. i was expecting you to say a neuman u87 or something!
