That a very large percentage of microphones
used in digital recordings are valve microphones.


PS. Just had an e-mail from an outside observer, of this NG
who reminds me that a large number of "state of the art"
compressors have a valve front end.

Producers of digital recordings like the sound.
I am pointing out a fact here, not offering an opinion or
a preference.
