Description:
Christopher J. Struck of CJS Labs in San Francisco will have his simulated free field test rig, automated turntable and custom designed free field ‘Point Source’ set up and ready to measure microphones. The first 10 persons to register and bring their recording microphone (and mic stand adaptor) to the meeting will have them measured during the meeting and receive a print out certificate of the response, sensitivity, and polar pattern. Between tests, Mr. Struck will discuss the test system, measurement technique, hardware, and the limits of its applicability, as well as alternative methods and supplemental measurements. He will also take questions from the audience on these topics.
The test system is set up for both ¼ inch phone plug and 3 pin XLR, with or without P48 Phantom power.
