Hello Dane, It probably was the ATR 2100 which is the first mic I purchased. However, it’s noise floor is pretty bad. I recently obtained a used Shure SM58 which is far superior. I purchased a used Shure because it was declared to be a genuine Shure mic as the market is flooded with copies. What flattery.
I did think that the Zoom H6 could have been made a little more robust. I appreciated your comments about the F8N. I wondered how much can you do via IOS bluetooth connection? You said about the menu system being more comprehensive, or at least that’s how I read your comments. Can these be changed over bluetooth?
