Thanks Johnny! i want to use it for recording my own practice sax duets, to play back and see how in time they are with each other.

good idea. well of course the mic quality won’t help with timing but you can use some kind of metronome/click track.
duets are fun and great for improving all sorts of things like timing and tuning….will be very benificial for you if you spend some good time on it!

Thanks Johnny!

Jeff Smith (in another forum) and I, are working along similar lines, trying to improve our timing by practicing/uploading identical tunes.
Any help/comments will be useful.
Thanks

These are great mics at a very reasonable cost.

@Mike – thanks for putting me on to them, i could only get hold of the x2 vintage model, but i’m really pleased with it’s pick up – i don’t have to alter as many settings in my digital 8 track recorder to improve the signal, compared to the other microphones i’ve used in the past.
