yippee my new mic
GLS ES57 has arrived today. Later on tonight i'm gonna have a play with it.
So dont be surprised if i go all quite for a change.

four Sheckles !!!!!
 
Nice!

Four? For that GLS ES57? Four?! Look at it. It's worth ten if it's worth a shekel.







Goodbye Jon. :(
 
Actually it was a really bargain 25 English Shekels.
After an initial test it seems really nice. Fairly flat response curve a bit hyped in the top end but not overly.
I still have a lot of playing to do after i finish teaching. Later Henry.
 
Thanks that makes it a lot easier while on the go.

Hey! Not bad Rich, not bad at all!






Goodbye Jon. :(
 
That's mighty fine playing Rich! What are the two different Microphone preamps are you using?






Goodbye Jon. :(
 
on the first gls test i used a cheap and nasty tube pre on my solid state combo. I can get a bit more distorted sound from the nasty tube pre.
on the second i used an Alice mic amp pak Line driver.
I originally bought it to have a pre with enough gain to get a decent result with Ribbon mics. Its a bit toppy but it does a great job most of the time to my ears.

Alice Broadcast Solutions - Mic-Amp-Pak
 
no bells no whistle just clean gain. 48pp and a low cut. can be found quite cheap here too.
Tip for the newbies there
 
I just scoured Evil bay. kept it in my searches and bobs your uncle, Fanny's your aunt.
On a lucky day I picked up a twin unit for less than 60 shekels UK + postage
