Listen to all of the sound clips referenced in this article. These include examples of recording the flute using a condenser microphone (a Neumann TLM-103), recording of a flute using a dynamic microphone (an Electro-Voice 664A) and recording of a flute using a ribbon microphone (a Royer R-122).

Also hear sound clips the demonstrate how changing the position of the microphone can subtly change the way the flute sounds when being recorded.
