Default Aloha Celestial Stick with the MK 2

Aloha Celestial,

Still curious, huh? Then Rent all of the mic's that interest you, have them shipped to your space, & do your own shoot out. It eliminates the guessing game. Only your opinion counts in gear selection. Let your ears decide on your home court.

Your room should be fine in terms of size. Record at night & turn off the A/C.

The Schoeps MK 2 Omni capsule is the best available of the mic's you are considering. The room's noise issues you discussed will have to be dealt with no matter what kind of mic you select. You're already into the Collette System. You will love the natural clarity of the MK 2. Lotsa space around the notes in a good room. Go to the Schoeps site for a listen/comparison of different mic's. I'd do that shoot-out at home.
