MXL 960 with swapped out tube....

I bought a new tube for my mic as a birthday gift to myself and while this is not the greatest case of use, I used the 960 in front of me about 2 feet out, into a PreSonus Firepod running into iMovie and then cleaned up with a little bit of Stillwell Major Tom compression in Garage Band.

Tube was a Mesa Boogie 12AX7 that I was able to get my hands on for cheap.


mic sounds a lot better when I am up close to it, but it has a fairly deep bottom end now.

So is that tracked like we see it? Guitar and vox at the same time with just one track?

Sounds nice. Good playing & singing too--cool vibe! :D
 
tracked like you see it, just done right there in front of my iSight camera on an iMac.

Nothing fancy, I got a number of clams in the playing, and some timing issues but it was just a fun little deal to play with the iSight mostly.

The mic was already on a stand, and I figured out that iMovie was using it as my input signal as default due to my audio configs in OS X so I just rolled with it.
