That's what I think of as "the romance filter efect", like used in
photography for Valentine sweetheart pics. [...]


I hope it's not that kind of "wolly" "romance
filter" you're looking for in recordings...


The mic in question is actually a very clear, but slightly warm sounding
mic. It is large diaphragm and has much of the characteristics of a
large-dia. mic as well... It is not hyped like many of today's condensers,
but clear with what may be considered a slight mid-range bump (or lack of
accentuation of top and bottom end).

As I said before, even ****ty rooms sound good with this mic. Good rooms
sound fantastic. Compare this to a Schoeps mic where it will tell you
exactly how bad your room may be...
