    Hi everyone,

    I am really enjoying my standard version of the Sychron Concert-D 274. Thanks to the VSL team for a job well done.

    In the condenser mics (the only close option in standard library) the hammers have a bit too much presence for my taste. I tried EQing them out, but that didn't help much. Those who have the full library, can you please share your experience on the other two close mics? Is the hammer as dominant in them too? 

    In the mic chart I can see that the condensers are placed right on top of the hammers, whereas the other two are farther away. So I guess they sound better in that regard, but I cannot find any recordings of those perspectives to check for myself.

    Your help is appreciated.

    Hi pampalini,

    You could check the mic comparison on the product page => Presets => scroll down to "Details of Microphone Settings".

    Best.
