I recently (8 months ago) picked up an ADK Area 51 TT tube mic because I read that the Jason Livermore used one on Tim McIlrath’s (Rise Against) vocals. I had ADK do the Z-67 mod (Z-67 has also been used a lot by Jason and Tim). The mod (changed out the circuit board, transformer, capsule, wiring) added some great upper mid clarity that my voice is naturally lacking. It’s my new go-to for acoustic guitar as well.
Super happy with it, just a great mic! I feel like I just discovered that a mic can be both super detailed and not overly bright at the same time.
Any other ADK fans out there? I’m interested to know which other mics you’ve found are standouts and what you use them for.
