im not promoting them... its just that they get so much hate online for awhile now and i thought id buy a pair because i was really curious and i found a great deal on ebay from japan (non studio original harsh tissue paper version) and a lot of good sounding records used them so i just thought...
well i would ask are they just popular, or are they an industry standard with discernable ears to prove they work? and im no bob clearmountain fanboy even though i respect his work... i just like other people work better. but i can hear the low end fundamental ok with them... definitely not...
well i finally bought a pair of old non studio version ns10s... and they dont sound fine. in fact there very nice and clear sounding. they definitely magnify the midrange frequencies which is the most important to me... im hearing certain details i havent heard before in songs I've heard many...
does anyone know any albums or engineers other then bob clearmountain who exclusively used ns10 on everything and not just a check moniter?
...kinda curious thanks
no i dont think so, they were used during the whole process usually and then sometimes they used there big boy moniters towards the end once they got it dialed in
awesome thanks love your answer never heard of ar18s before interesting . what are some example records done with ar18s? oh and what about the earlier 2000s? gemelecs maybe?
easy, almost everything just listen to your old favorite musicians new album, and then listen to there old work from 30 or 40 or 50 years ago and then tell me the midrange sounds fine. and im not claiming anything theres more to the puzzle i believe but monitering (mostly midrange frequencies)...
yeah i understand that less and less people for the last 15 years are using them but around during that transition records mostly (mid range Rock,metal,jazz etc instrument sounding records) have been sounding worse coincidently so whats the new reference moniter then ? what did people replace...
excuse me ignorance but why would you wanto emulate the sound of a room? we need to hear the sound were mixing not the room right? why would we need to hear any room noise must be why low volume mixing is the new rage? honestly ill probably use headphones but im still interested in the ns10 sound.
moniters arent supposed to sound good" im asking what do they sound like because iv never heard them. there still somewhat a standard to this day though for professional mixers thats a fact. you make em sound good on there to fix the midrange from what i know.
love the sound of shure sm57 but most mics to me fail to capture the punch of a loud marshall?mesa guitar amp it sounds so good in person and the recording sounds good but just really flat sounding. the immediate attack and punch is what im looking to capture . any help would be appreciated thanks
