I've finally understood that using symbols like ;-) and put prefixes like "(humor)" doesn't work up here...
(but maybe a prefix-cut plugin is acting on mail bodies text channel)

Moving the mic by 10cm will change the sound a 100 times more
than any difference between two good mics could do. You listen
and you adjust. 'Professionals' often want to use a particular
mic or whatever piece of equipment not because it's better, but
because they have used it before, and know how to use it and get
good results in no time. BTW one good reason to us condensers
for a guitar amp is that dynamic mics oftern pick up magnetic
radiation from the amp's power transformers. Doesn't matter
if you make lots of noise of course.
