[Icom] Heil Goldline & VOX

Mon, 11 Feb 2002 19:08:36 -0800 (PST)

I have a Goldline with my Pro and you are correct; the
Heil dynamic mics do have less output than other mics.
 I run my mic gain wide open and get plenty of drive
with that.  It also works well with my Pro-Set HC-5. 
You can run about 10db of compression in the wide mode
to add some more punch.

I've thought about trying the HMI, but already had the
Goldline.  How are the audio reports you have been
getting with the HMI
