Re: [Harp-L] Rack mic

["Vern Smith" <jevern@xxxxxxx>]

John,

Having just designed one myself, I'm intensely interested in 
rack mics.  How about a description and some close up 
pictures of your rack mic.  I can't tell much from youtube.

What kind of mic element?
Does it have an enclosure like Mike Curtis or Paul Oscher 
uses?
Does it have a loudness pot/knob?
Does it have an on/off switch?
Does it have a socket or does it have an attached cable 
instead?

Vern
