Just a suggestion for you:
I would like to ask to our welcomed new comers to please use easier names than the ones most of you are lately using.
I can understand those strange names in some circumstances. Now I realized my name could be also difficult to pronounce at a first sight. My real nick is Sam Plaire (you know, play of words, 'sampler' semi equals 'sam plaire' if you read it with French pronounciation). I've been using this nick for a long time so why to change it? I write it without any space for ease of use reasons (it's easier to type it without an additional key pressed (space bar).

Its curious you say that, cos yours to me, it’s one of the easiest to remember. I was rather referring to something like: “trk2my75liz” or things of the like, you see? I mean, something really difficult and if you pay attention to the names, you’ll find some hard to spell and difficult to remember.
Crown is, I believe, the original designer of PZM mics. Radio Shack in North America also sells their own brand, and I think the Shure SM-90 (or one of the SM mics in that number range) is also a PZM mic. I'm sure there are lots of others.
The early version of the Radio Shack PZM's were actually made by crown I believe and were an absolute bargain. I used to have one and I used it quite a bit for Kick Drum. It sounded really good. However I left it at a friends place once and never bothered to pick it up. This was before I found out all about them. Now I'm regretting it! Anyway I came across a couple later on but they are the later ones which were made by Shure I believe (plastic capsule not metal like the older ones), but they are not the same. I use one for talkback now. Oh well. We live and we learn!
