You're one of my favorite people on the planet 😍
Oh my recordings are adventures alright. Like a bear attack. Seriously, this was informative, really enjoyed this...hope there are more in this series.
Please do another episode, it's an awesome series and your work and dedication to mics it's great =)
She could have a career on asmr
YES.
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing collection of mics and knowledge :) these episodes are a treat!
HORRIBLE SOUND...
You look amazing!
Interesting, I guess cheap (although they probably weren't that cheap) clones in the microphone world are nothing new.
My workhorse mics are now ribbon mics. Now I'm building a ribbon mic from scratch.
Would love to hear these early mics through pre's of the period,or at least tube pre's with low impedance input.I run my 618 through a GT Vipre at lowest impedance and the reach and bloom and frequency range all improves markedly.Having said that,love the show Sylvia!
I kinda wish I was born just a mere decade earlier. I don't think I would ever have a chance with such a cool person. But I'd sure try my heart out. It has nothing to do with her accomplishments, but intelligence and passion. Simply awe inspiring.
I usually don’t say this but I’d really like to meet you in person one day , you’re such a rare soul
💕💥
Your smile looks amazing Sylvia ;)
So what happened to all the mics that fell off your car?😮😢😅

The amount of good and bad news that these mics transmitted is historical. Makes one wonder if mic's inhabit any paranormal mojo?
I love u

Congrats Sylvia! I'm using those videos in my class os electronics for audio. Thank you! Really nice.
So were polar patterns even a thing back then? Was there a null zone at the very back? What did you have to do to connect to the pre (XLR didn't exist yet?)?
Polar patterns may not have been a topic of interest, but a pattern still could be plotted based on the spatial response. As for the XLR question, you just solder on a connector. The principle of having an audio signal and a reference ground would still apply.
Polar patterns were a thing. These mics were omnidirectional (omnis are still quite directional when it comes to high frequencies) but the first ribbon mic, that was released 9 months after this one, the RCA 44 was bidirectional, and the RCA 77A that came on the market in 1933 was unidirectional.
your someone after my own heart,,
