Is Sebatron good for TLM103 mic for voice?

Posted: Mon Feb 07, 2005 2:52 am

Hi Sebatron,

TLM103 is a bright mic, from 3K up, there are about +4db increase. Do you think Sebatron is good for TLM103 mic for voice? What does the "Bright" switch mean? add some +db in high frequency? If that is the case, It might be too bright for the mic.

I heard that tubes will be worn out gradually. How often should the tubes in Sebatrons be replaced with new ones? how much are they? where to buy?

Thanks.
Dave

Do you have sound samples recorded with different mics? Thanks.

i've been using a tlm103 through a VMP-2000eVu with incredible results.the harsh treble disappears to be rounded off well. Very Happy

it suits my motu 828 very well i used to think the 828 was already bright but the valve preamp is a blessing.
The mixing time has been a joy Very Happy

great! I have TLM103 and Motu828mkII too. The recorded voice sounds harsh. I am glad to hear that Sabatron can remove the harshness. have you tried the "Bright EQ switch"? will that make voice too bright? Thanks.

Hi robbie,
do you have any sound clip, especially voice clip that you can post? I like to listen to the sound (voice/guitar-->tlm103-->Sebatron-->Motu828)? Thanks.

you'll have to try the switches yourself to see if you like the sound.
the bright hit A CERTAIN SPOT AND THE AIR ENHANCES all the highs i think.So the Air switch seems more subtle
