Q: 1. Would this set be appropriate for ASMR/binaural recording? I am on a relative budget but want as best quality of sound as I can get.

A: appropriate is relative. these are good mics. they compare to Shure SM81s. They are accurate. their part in the total audio chain from reality to ASMR is just one part. my guess is that they will work well. again, all the other parts of the audio chain have their own effects. most important is how YOU will use them.

Q: 2. Would these be suitable for entry level field recording, such as nature sounds?

A: Yes you can use the Zoom ZPC-1 Cardioid Pencil Condenser Microphones (Matched Pair) for entry level recording of nature sounds.

Q: 3. Is this Microphone can be hanging from the ceiling as well?

A: You can, but it is not intended to be hung from the ceiling. You may want to consider the Astatic 2600VP for a high quality hanging mic: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/754716-REG/Astatic_2600VP_Variable_Polar_Pattern_Hanging.html

Q: 4. We have had two M1250B's for four years. Purchased to record the choir. Recently, the Music Director wants to amplify the choir a bit during Praise and Worship songs. However, the M1250Bs pick up a bunch of drums which sit 12 feet from the left mic and the drums are actually more predominate than the choir. Request advice? gev at Kirkmont Church

A: Move the drum kit if possible. If these mics are not ceiling mounted - you might try a few of these panels: ClearSonic S5-2 - 66 x 48 x 1.5 Double Section SORBER Baffle (Light Grey) with Handle. a href= http://bhpho.to/1AeFdcw target= _blank http://bhpho.to/1AeFdcw/a

Q: 6. How/where do you mount these if micing a grand piano?

A: While there are many ways to mic a grand piano, the most straight forward approach would be to place each of these on boom mic stands, and place one over the bass portion of strings, and the other over the treble portion. Please make sure the distance from string to capsule are the same for each mic, and that if above the strings at 1', the mics are separated by 3' of space.

Q: 7. How does the audix ats 10 terminate to mixer. Does it hardwire from platform then clean male to mixer/phantom power input?

Q: 9. would this work good on an alto saxophone?

A: Yes, you can use the Audix ADX20I Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone (B&H# AUADX20I ) on an alto saxophone.

You may want to purchase the same mic packaged with the compatible phantom power supply, which is the Audix ADX20IP Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone with APS910 Power Supply (B&H# AUADX20IP). The power supply has a mini-XLR input connector for the mic and a standard XLR output connector to connect to your amp, PA or recorder.
