dear michael i do not mind at all, and would in fact like to hear from people who have used my mic, or heard recordings made with it. Angelo has ten of them, and a 11th made with TSB 120 capsules which he has tested and calibrated and used for recordings. i have not heard these recordings myself. one member of this group, hector centano, has a brahma and i heard nice sounding recordings he has made with it. the first thing i must point out if you want to buy a brahma is you will have to calibrate the microphone yourself. at the moment i am not set up for doing this. (hector and i have both used them uncalibrated, with a kind of best fit approach). depending on your skill levels and parts availability, you can build it yourself (using the required parts from shapeways), do only the zoom modification yourself, or get me to make the whole thing. (we can discuss that off list) umashankar
