It struck me that the bright characteristic of this mic

recording of instruments such a celeste, or tuned

The sound was
pleasing - clean, clear and bright, with adequate gain.

Yes, that pretty fairly sums up this mic. Bright - too
bright for many applications and harsh is a description
I've often heard. Of course any flavour of mic will find
an application, even if it is "enhanced intelligibility"
in a church, oxymoron though that clearly is.


Several reports of the C1000 making most things sound " glassy and
unnatural".
