Will,
Hi! I really enjoy your mic tests and I have learned a lot from them. I am sending along an mp3 of a mic test I did of the MXL 909 after reading a passage in Voice Actors Guide to Recording at Home... and on the Road, in which Harlan Hogan compared the 909 to the Sennheiser 416. Picked it up out of sheer curiosity and it was only 70 bucks. I like it. Think it sounds pretty good.
Be well,
Daniel Wright

Wow! Thanks DW.
You do sound great on the 909. It is a good example of knowing how to use the tools we have. Using the Sennheiser MKH-416 for voice over work requires full use and knowledge of Voiceover technique. Things like mic placement, proximity, level control, intensity, modulated inflection and much more makes getting the most out of any mic a study in style.

Yeah, I just read that in Harlan's book last night.
Definitely peaked my interest.
I'll make sure I get a test of that mic at MXL's office soon, and I'll bring along a 416. Curious to see how two completely different mics can sound similar.
