Do you have any problem with ambient noise issues? I am using an extremely high end microphone with a wireless hookup, but for some reason it's not nearly as accurate as it was a year ago. I switched from professional to preferred a little while ago and at first there was no significant difficulties for me, but I have noticed more problems with accuracy despite the fact I'm using extremely good microphones.
I would appreciate if you could let me know where you got the stand for your microphone.
