I don’t think it’s obsolete but I know the builder has moved on. I don’t think there will be new mics made. Last I talked to him, he had a prototype with the transformer separate from the capsule, kinda like the Nadine but don’t think he’s really spending much time on it these days.I see. So you guys are basically saying the troll is an "obsolete" microphone.
I`ll stick to the plan of the Line Audio CM4 but a little OT has anyone tried the OM1 with double bass (specially placing it between the soundboard and the bridge?
