Re: question for recording buffs

Thanks to Tom for the interesting article.  I know I'm going against the 
conventional wisdom here but I really like an Audio Technica 4047 for 
recording acoustic harmonica.  The high spl keeps it from splatting so 
you get to play overa wider dynamic range which has always been a 
problem for me with other mics.  I've used ribbon mics for recording 
amplified and liked how that turned out.  I'm sure an SM58 would have 
been fine too.  The downside of the AT 4047 is cost and fragility.  fjm
