Do you still stand by that post, after the rebuttals you got so far?

In my post, I showed evidence that the microphone used likely had a rather omnidirectional characteristic. Efftup just gave you a source that supports this. This is what we call "evidence" around here.

Directionality is the only way that mics can be "designed to pick up sounds close by" - that is, if you direct a mic with a narrow directionality at a nearby audio source and optimize the recording level to that source.

You'd need to show evidence now that this news camera used a mix with narrow angle characteristic. You just claiming something doesn't cut it.

I have more direct proof that the mic has an omni characteristic: Watch this longer version of her interview, starting at 20 seconds:

Banfield says "...yot Carolina here, with the mic pointed to her mouth and very close to her mouth.
At that moment, Fabiana responds: "yes ... uhm, they they advised us to leave..."
While she sais "yes", softly, the mic is still pointing another direction, about 90° to the direction where Fabianas mouth is, an perhaps 10 inches away. Yet, this softly spoken "yes" can be very clearly heard without any need to vamp up anything.
The mic is also pointed roughly 90° to the direction towards WTC7.

It follows that a softly-spoken "yes" at 10 inches was MUCH MUCH louder than the rumble that ensues.

A few seconds on, the mic picks up the cries and shouts of various people in the vicinity. These, too, much be MUCH MUCH louder than the rumble.

Compare this to news or other recordings of actual CDs, where, typicall, the PENG PENG PENG PENG of the demo charges dominate all sounds while they last!

Sure, the mic picked up a low, faint rumble. There was a big building collapsing.
But the sound level was minimal compared to a soft-spoken word, and a far cry any and all demo charges known from actual explosive demolitions.

Again, we found that this rumble coincides with the collapse of a dozend floors around column 79 in the NIST scenario, which tends to corroborate the hypothesis that the collapse started seconds before the EPH was seen to kink in.
It seems significant to me that Chandler heard no more "explosions" that would coincide with the collapse of the west core and the perimeter. Certainly, the increased noise level (people screaming) would automatically lower the recording level, but again, the street noises are clearly louder than any of the collapse rumble. It seems that not even Chandler can hear any "explosions" that would coincide with the failure of the west core columns and perimeter columns, suggesting that none existed.
