Shure PG52 or Sennheiser e602-II for Tuba?

Post by AndyCat »

Has anyone experience with either of these microphones for recording tuba? I have access to both but no time to try them properly myself!!

Shure PG52

Sennheiser e602-II

Any experiences welcome!

fwiw., last week I did a long recording session using a recently acquired Shure KSM 137 with superb results.. it 'tracked' (the engineer's term) the instrument's sound and character very well. I was extremely pleased with the playback and will use this mic much more in the future.
$ 575 list..
$ 299 here: http://www.fullcompass.com/product/2474 ... PAodeS5wSQ

Good luck in your search.

Best,
