  1. So, to rephrase the original question if I may: When and why would one utilize a small diaphragm condenser i.e. pencil microphone vs. a standard shotgun mic like a 416 etc.? It seems the answer would be in tighter indoor locations the SDC is more appropriate for the task?
  2. This has been a very helpful thread. I wonder if I can tag on. Here is my setup: (if you can call it that) Tascam DR-40 (H4N equivalent) Rode NTG-3 Boom Mogami XLR cable So, far the biggest suggestion is adding a mixer like the 302. For my situation should I invest in a lav setup like the G3? I am partnering with a videographer mostly doing local commericals. Should my next purchase be a small condenser, a wireless lav, or a mixer? (I am working to not be 'a guy with an h4n' but it takes time/money) Thanks for all of your professional insight and help!
  3. Thank you for the responses! I have some Beyer 770's which I use in the studio but the fuzzy pads were brutal outside. Which is why I'm looking for a 2nd pair. Sounds like either closed-back or IEM's is the prescribed tool.
  4. Warning, possible newb content: My first post here! I am in the market for some headphones. I am just getting into doing some boom work. I am primarily considering the Ultrasone Pro550s. These are excellent sounding and very comfortable. They come with extras and a case. I'll definitely go with these over something like the 7506's. My question is whether it would be beneficial to have open-back phones so I can hear the director etc. more easily or if its best to isolate my ears and focus on what the mic is hearing? If closed is the concensus then does anyone use high quality in-ears to avoid the sweat of a hot shoot?
