Hi! does anybody here have some experience with Avenson sto 2 mics? I m pretty curious about them, but i don t know anybody that has used it.

Here is the link http://www.avensonaudio.com/sto2.php

I wonder if they could have some uses recording in the field. What do you think?

Thanks in advance

I have used them quite a bit, since I manufacture these microphones.

Omnidirectional microphones have a few characteristics that make them useful in field recording:

  • low handling noise
  • better wind rejection than direction microphones
  • baffled omnis (ie jecklin disk) can give you stereo effects similar to binaural techniques

If you have any specific questions about the STO-2s feel free to contact me.
