comment Are outboard processors dead?
It's worth noting that there exist outboard processor boxes (not computers) whose sole purpose is to run software plugins. :)

comment Amateur orchestra recording/post-processing
+1 That video is a really good illustration of the loudness wars problem. How many recordings have been destroyed with this kind of treatment? There's no telling.

comment Reducing breath noise
You don't have to put the volume drops at the loudest parts of the audio, like the picture illustrates. You can put the volume drops anywhere you want. In your case, the volume drops would occur at the places where you believe the breaths are too loud.

comment What is the effect of impedance on headphone sound quality?
@Cory: There is one kind of headphones that nobody has mentioned yet, and that is electrostatic headphones. Electrostatics are the only high-fidelity headphones that I would consider truly "high-impedance." The sound quality of electrostatics is unparalleled. But electrostatics are quite exotic; they require special high-voltage amplifiers, and are generally very expensive.

comment What is the effect of impedance on headphone sound quality?
@Cory: I don't see how; as long as your amplifier can handle the current needs of low-impedance headphones, it comes down to the quality of the headphone design.

comment What is the effect of impedance on headphone sound quality?
@Cory: I don't think high-impedance headphones are superior just because they're high-impedance. Their overall design is what makes them good headphones.

comment Are there any cheaper alternatives to the SM81?
The Rode NT5-S is an excellent alternative; I've seen it used for choirs, drum overheads and acoustic guitars. It has a nice, neutral character, and it comfortably fits in your pocket. :)

comment Stereo imaging with headphones
+1 for "Binaural System." I assume the question was asked because the OP was curious.
