Improved microphone setup

Added a SE Electronics RF-X Reflexion filter and an Oktava 319 mic to the setup, resulting in a far better vocal sound as witnessed in this song, Urban Wildlife. Would be better still if I could sing! The Oktava goes through an existing Black Lion Audio Auteur pre-amp and a Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 audio interface.

Real problem with the new setup was having a European-standard mic stand, into an American-standard reflection filter and onto a European-standard shockmount supporting a Russian-standard mic, each standard having different diameter fittings, so it's adapters all the way round.
