Glad to see you still active! Your videos alway make me feel cozy, and your playing creates images of beautiful nature, with some kind of otherworldliness, in my mind :)
Thanks for sharing your recording experiences. There certainly isn’t one size fits all, mic or technique wise. The NT1 is super flat and smooth. It’s a great mic for the price. I’d be interested to hear a budget ribbon mic (apples to apples price wise) set up in a similar configuration for a comparison.
