SC400... 0.07
SC450... 0.49
SC1100... 1.30

In each case I used the recommended mic technique of placing the diaphragm of each mic at eyeball level to cut out nasal sounds.

No pop filter was used. All pads and high pass filters are set to off, and the SC1100 was set to cardioid.

The room is untreated, and I think it's noticeable that there is less 'room sound' in the supercardioid SC400 sample.

The reading is an extract from a poem by John Taylor the Water Poet, in which he describes part of an epic row down the Thames Estuary in a paper boat on the 25th July 1622.

I first read about this adventure in the spring 2018 issue of the excellent journal Marine Quarterly.
