Default Ribbon for Alto?

Posted in the spirit of a *no fees will be paid*/*no invitation to to tender
for a consultancy contract exists or is being offered*, amateur/hobbyist
enquiry* only does anybody disagree the ribbon mic beats the Oktava for the
alto sax** in these 'near identical' (simultaneously recorded and edited,
but not level matched) clips?

(Please note the backing track is not properly *mixed* - merely being played
in the background over speakers for practice purposes!)

Only my recently acquired favourite 'Choob Mic' has succumbed (temporarily,
I hope) to the 'Gadget Pox' *pandemic* that we are currently experiencing
and is humming along with the tunes, so I gotta mess with one of these two
mics 'til I get it sorted!!

Responses appreciated; all calls and texts returned, your photo gets mine,
&c....
