    F*ck it, you guys pick me one, I'll buy it. MXL, ADK, or SP.

    That V69 sure is a pretty mic though. The V6 looks rather nice too. Do they look that good in person? I had a V67 once I didnt seem to care much for (years ago so I cant say why, might even like it now) that looked a lot nicer in pictures than it did in person. That V69 would look pretty...

    F*ck it, you guys pick me one, I'll buy it. MXL, ADK, or SP.

    The important stuff first. My picks are MXL V69M or V6, ADK Vienna or Hamburg, new version of SP C1. 1) If you've only had/heard one of them, keep your opinion to yourself for now. 2) Somehow I've ended up with all dynamics and small condensors. I want something especially suited for rock...

    ADK brand of mics

    Do they? You know this from experience? (as in having that particular mic as well as the mount?) I'm really interested in getting one of those mounts and will soon. If you have the Hamburg/Vienna, whats your take on it with the Enhanced mount through a GOOD pre (Seventh Circle API or Neve are...

    Man you're nuts! Lots easier to buy mine! I got a seventh circle kit, seems easier than what you are doing right now. Man, I'd freak out.

    Anyone had hands on with either an ADK Vienna/Hamburg and a U195?

    I sold my U195 just a bit ago because it seemed it didnt have enough sparkle or magic to it for my tastes, yet it wanted to be sibilant a lot. Thinking about trying out an ADK Hamburg or Vienna in its place. Keep in mind that the primary 1st try preamp on vocals with this mic will be a Seventh...

    New GT "Convertible" mic. Not too shabby.

    During the mic testing session with Wagener, he had a GT Convertible mic there that they were wanting him to demo. We put it on guitar cab with lots of other well known mics and it kicked a bunch of thier asses, ESPECIALLY the SM57, and the e609, the Beyer M500, a few others. This mic was...

    Guitar/bassists... check out this cheap easy upgrade...

    Well, Wagener was a forming member of Accept, and then backed out of it I beleive to start engineering for Dokken on thier first album. Wolfe (the other guitar player I know of in Accept) was the one that wrote "Balls to the walls" if I'm not mistaken. I beleive he (Wagener) engineered all of...

    Nady RSM-2

    We tried one out on guitar cabs at Wireworld. It wasnt bad. We liked the Shinybox better, the Royer 121 better than that, and the the Royer 122V even better. So its a few steps down there. Useable, but nothing incredible. I think they may be very good, or somewhat bad, at random. Ribbons have a...

    New SP mics

    Harvey do you have a new C1 yet? I just sold a Soundeluxe U195 because it wasnt quite doing it for me and was a bit too sibilant sometimes. I need a replacement. Soon.

    New SP mics

    What the general charachter of the mic. Still pushing towards that "Neumann" mic that the original C1 was going for? I'll bite and be the first to try a new C1 on 3 different vocalists here in 2 weeks. Are they available yet? If not, Alan, get one to me, just tell me how. paul at...

    Guitar/bassists... check out this cheap easy upgrade...

    I emailed them and asked about it, I think they are being a little bit quiet about what it actually is because they are waiting for a patent. I do know that because the output resistance was so low that you could plug the thing directly into a converter and get enough level to record it, which...

    Dude, if numbers make ANY difference, I can sell you a mic for $80 that sounds EXACTLY like a Elux 251. You know better than THAT crap. You listen, and you hear it, thats all the numbers you need. If you dont hear it, doesnt mean its not true, just not true to you. It was obvious, enough said...

    funny looking fostex ribbons??

    Those are odd looking. Makes me horny. I tried a Fostex ribbon out last week but it was square-ish. Michael Wagener used those Fostex ribbons all through the 80's and 90's and didnt even know what a ribbon was, kept blowing them up and replacing them cause they sounded so good. If you are a...

    Best RODE for vocals

    I just read a few posts above here someone called out Nickelback. You guys are goofy if you think he has a shitty voice. He is an incredible singer for that style and its NOT a matter of opinion. Great band. Those that knock'em suck'em cock'em. Give respect where its due, they eat more sushi...

    Best RODE for vocals

    I havent read the entire thread, but did anyone mention that Nicklebacks newest album was cut with a Rode on all the vocals? Find out which one, see if you voice or some that you work with matches that style, and go with it. For vocals I suggest Seventh Circle N72.
