But I'm open to suggestions, Plowie - the ideal mic plugs straight into
the computer I suppose, but summat like this does have a certain appeal:

Would that be suitable for piano recordings?? :-)

I read as far as 'rich enough in third harmonic distortion to brighten and
add warmth' before bursting out laughing. The frequency response added
somewhat to the joke, as did the price.

Mics, of course, often don't have as flat a frequency response as you'd
get with even a modestly specced power amp as they tend to be chosen for
particular tasks.

However, you seem to be keen on a valve mic so I'll leave any advice to
others. I was glad to see the end of them.
