Audix F9 Small Diaphragm Condenser Microphone $159 The Audix f9 small-diaphragm condenser mic is known for its clear, accurate responseparticularly in the upper-frequency range. Ideally suited for a wide variety of acoustic instruments, the Audix f9 mic is an excellent choice for cymbals, overhead, percussion table, and ambient room miking.With a uniformly controlled cardioid polar pattern, the Audix f9 microphone captures instrument acoustics and at the same time isolates their sounds from the rest of the instruments on stage. The Audix f9 is equipped with a 16mm pre-polarized capsule with a gold vapor diaphragm and a frequency response of 40Hz-20kHz.The Audix f9 is ultra easy to position, durable, and manufactured with high standards and tight tolerances. Its roadworthy construction includes a precision-cast zinc-alloy body, black finish, laser-etched model number, steel mesh grill, gold XLR connector, and a tension-fit heavy-duty nylon mic clip.User tips:The f9, an excellent choice to mic any kind of acoustic instrument. It has a cardioid pick-up pattern, which helps to eliminate sound from other instruments on stage from bleeding into the microphone. However, the f9 is much more sensitive than a dynamic and will pick-up sound from a greater distance. The acoustic nature of the instrument being miked, along with how loud it is, will determine how far the microphone should be from the sound source. For example, the f9 can be placed 1 - 2 feet above the cymbals of a drum kit and still pick up plenty of sound, whereas for a acoustic guitar, the mic will need to be placed within 8 - 12 inches to be effective. Allow a distance of 2-3 feet between microphones to avoid phase issues. Phantom power operation:The f9 will NOT operate without phantom power. The f9 requires 12-48V phantom power, which is available on most professional mic preamps and mixing devices. If phantom power is not available on your equipment, you will have to purchase a phantom power supply (such as the Nady SMPS #180162, or ART Phantom I #180266) ). Avoid plugging or unplugging the microphone from a PA system unless the channel is muted or the volume of the system is turned down. Failure to do so may result in a loud popping noise, which could seriously damage the speakers in the PA system.Excellent multipurpose instrument mic Interchangeable threaded capsuleIdeal for medium field (8" - 12") or far field (12" - 24")Cast zinc alloy housingMic stand adapterCarrying pouch3-year warranty Applications:CymbalsOverheadsHi-hatPercussionAudience mic |

Featuring hand-selected 3-micron capsules, high-quality Jensen audio transformers, and military-grade JAN 5840 vacuum tubes, the MA-100 performs at a level reminiscent of some of the best-loved, classic, small-diaphragm tube condenser mics. The latest in a lineage of successful microphone designs by David Royer, one of an elite group of microphone designers who know that music and sound are inseparable from electronic design. The MA-100's 'cathode follower' design allows use on high SPL instruments, such as drums and guitar amplifiers, as well as the more common applications of small-diaphragm, vacuum tube condenser micd, such as acoustic instruments, cymbals, stereo pairs, and pianos. Each MA-100 microphone, power supply, and cable set is burned in for 24 hours, carefully tested and evaluated, then packaged in its protective case. The MA-100 power supply can be set for either 115v or 230v via an external switch. Small DiaphragmBig Sound! Why choose a small diaphragm microphone?

What is Small Cell Lung Cancer?
When cells of the lung start growing rapidly in an uncontrolled manner, the condition is called lung cancer. Lung cancer can affect any part of the lung. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in both women and men in the United States, Canada and China. Two main types of lung cancer that exists are: Small-cell lung cancer and Non-small-cell lung cancer. Small-cell lung cancer accounts for approximately 20-25% of all cases of lung cancer.
Small-cell lung cancer differs from non-small-cell lung cancer in the following ways:
- Small-cell lung cancer grows rapidly.
- Small-cell lung cancer spreads quickly.
- Small-cell lung cancer responds well to chemotherapy (using medications to kill cancer cells) and radiation therapy (using high-dose x-rays or other high-energy rays to kill cancer cells).
- Small-cell lung cancer is frequently associated with distinct paraneoplastic syndromes (collection of symptoms that result from substances produced by the tumor, occurring far away from the tumor).
Symptoms of Small Cell Lung Cancer
The symptoms of Small cell lung cancer can result from local growth of the tumor, spread to nearby areas, distant spread, paraneoplastic syndromes or a combination thereof.
Symptoms due to local growth of the tumor include the following:
- Cough
- Coughing up blood
- Shortness of breath
- Chest pain made worsened by deepbreathing
Symptoms due to spread of the cancer to nearby areas include the following:
- Hoarseness of voice, resulting from compression of the nerve that supplies the vocal cords
- Shortness of breath, resulting from compression of the nerve that supplies the muscles of the diaphragm or severe shortness of breath and stridor (sound produced by turbulent flow of air through a narrowed part of therespiratory tract), resulting from compression of the trachea (windpipe) and larger bronchi (airways of the lung)
- Difficulty swallowing, resulting from compression of the esophagus (food pipe)
- Swelling of the face and hands, resulting from compression of thesuperior vena cava (vein that returns deoxygenated blood from the upper body)
Treatment options for Small Cell Lung Cancer
Surgery: Surgery may not be possible if the Small cell lung cancer is too close to the trachea or if the person has other serious conditions (such as severe heart or lung disease) that would limit their ability to tolerate an operation. Surgery for Small cell lung cancer is a major surgical procedure that requires general anesthesia, hospitalization and follow-up care for weeks to months. Following the surgical procedure, patients may experience difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, pain and weakness. The risks of surgery include complications due to bleeding, infection and complications of general anesthesia. Surgery is less often performed with Small cell lung cancer because these tumors are less likely to be localized to one area that can be removed. The surgical procedure chosen depends upon the size and location of the tumor. Surgeons must open the chest wall and may perform a wedge resection of the lung (removal of a portion of one lobe), a lobectomy (removal of one lobe) or a pneumonectomy (removal of an entire lung). Sometimes lymph nodes in the region of the lungs also are removed (lymphadenectomy).
Chemotherapy:Chemotherapy uses powerful medications to kill Small cell lung cancer cells. These medications may be taken by mouth (orally), but they are usually injected into a vein (IV). Chemotherapy is a systemic treatment because the medications enter the bloodstream, travel throughout the body and kill cancer cells wherever they are. However, some normal cells are also killed. This is responsible for some of the side effects of chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is usually given at intervals to ensure that the bone marrow has recovered before the next dose of chemotherapy is given.
Follow-up
- Patients who are receiving chemotherapy require close monitoring for side effects and their response to therapy.
- A blood workup, including CBC (completeblood count), is needed prior to each cycle of chemotherapy to ensure that the bone marrow has recovered before the next dose of chemotherapy is given.
- Kidney function should be monitored, especially if the patient is taking cisplatin, as it can damage the kidneys.
- The patient may be advised to undergo a CT scan after 2 cycles of therapy to assess response to the therapy.
- If the patient's serum LDH (lactic dehydrogenase, an enzyme found in the blood that may indicate cancer when blood levels are higher than normal) is elevated before the start of therapy, it is a goodmarker for response and should be monitored.
