Hi - I'm considering buying a parabolic reflector but have have a couple of questions I'd be really grateful if someone experienced could answer......
First, how does the directionality of a parabolic vs. a long shotgun mic like a Sennheiser 816 compare? - Is the parabolic significantly more directional? and how does it compare tonally?
Also would a parabola give better results with a cardioid or omni at the focal point?
Finally, where could I buy one?? - bearing in mind there's not many Kroner to the pound these days
Many Thanks,
rob
