You still have the Zoom H1 I'm sure as well.

Thanks for the information Curtis,

Another great video with excellent audio. On your wife's music, did you do any post production work with it? I thought I heard a little reverb near the end. She did a great job with the music and you did the the usual AAA+ on everything else. What was the price of this mic? You talked about the others you had recorded with before and the price range, so what price range does this one fall?

Thanks for sharing such a great review.

@SparkieWaller2009 I added reverb on the violin at the very end. All other audio was normalized but not otherwise processed.

The mic was $219 at Amazon. I' also own or use the following:

- Rode NT1a -- I paid $230 a few years ago, now sells for $200

- Rode NTG-2 -- Sells for $270, this is actually a small diaphragm condenser

- Blue Baby Bottle -- I've used this mic and it sells for $400

I've heard several other LDCs in this range and they all seem to have that harsh top end. Thanks!
