Default Recording with Measurement Mics

I posted a similar question some time ago, and one person brought
up the idea that low self noise may not be a primary objective when
designing a measurement mic. That's important to me because I
often record quieter sounds.


Low self noise and sometimes low distortion are often overlooked with
measurement microphone design.

There is an article in the July 2016 issue of AudioXPress about modifying
B&K lab mikes for recording applications, which changes some of those
compromises.
