ChrisN Posted November 30, 2011 Report Share Posted November 30, 2011 Has anybody ever had experience with RF interference using a Sanken CS1e microphone? By RF (and I'm pretty sure I'm right) I mean a HF scratchy whiney signal that is around certain places. Will a 416 be RF immune? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathan chiles Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Hey Chris, some of us have been wondering about this mic as it is quite new. Would you care to share your experiences with it?? maybe here or under the other topic I started regarding the mic on the Equipment section of the group. BTW I do like to keep the 416 handy as I have never had any RF issues with that particular mic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

studiomprd Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 " I bought this mic as my first mic, the day that Sanken upgraded from CS1 to CS1e. " so you know that it is a new version of an existing product... " ever had experience with RF interference " being so new, experiences are limited, and just trickling in (yours!) What does your dealer have to say?? or the USA distributor Plus 24 ?? " Will a 416 be RF immune? " immune is a pretty strong term, but the 416 is pretty much the gold standard.

cmassey Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 upgraded to a CS1e as soon as one was available here in the great mid continent wasteland. I have had it in all kinds of odd situations...top cab in ATC control towers, under the tower with the Dallas PD dispatch antennas...just outside the hilltop with all the local TV transmitters, across the street from a medium power FM transmitter and so far nothing. the original never gave me a problem either. That said, your experiences may vary, but nothing so far for me...and while no microphone could be 100% RF immune, the 416 sure has never been a problem either. cleve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathan chiles Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Hey Cleve How does the CS1e compare to the old CS1? I see that as Rafael mentioned elsewhere there seems to be much more rear pickup (looking at the polar pattern) Sanken doesnt seem to give much info about what the update was and why? Sending an email out to Plus24 now to ask them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
