Re: Question for Zoom recorder users

Better mics pick up more stuff. And you hear things differently from a perspective away from you. If you haven't recorded yourself talking yet, try that. You'll be surprised just how high your voice is.

Oiling can damp the clicking some, but I would say there are more issues with corks and greater play in key tolerance (can be aided with swedging, basically pulling the key tube a bit longer like taffy; definitely save that for a pro).

When oiling you should unscrew and remove the key axle, or pivot completely so that you can wipe the grime and add new oil (I recommend Hetman's Heavy Key Oil).
