EV RE-20 vs RODE
Forums
I am working with a church that has an Electro-Voice RE-20 and wants to record their soloists..mostly female. I suggested they get a RODE NT1, NT2, etc with better frequency response. The Electro-Voice sounds thin and checking into the response I can see why.
Isn't the RE-20 used mostly for bass drum? Anyone familiar with the Electro-Voice mic?

Mic stands for the studio
Forums
Hello,
I want to buy a pair of new mic stands to hold two AKG 414's for drum OHs and VO's, I've been looking around but only found ultraexpensive Manley stands for $1,000 and low-quality $50-90 stands. Are there anything hi-quality-robust stands outhere that are not so expensive as the manley's?
Thank you for your help

1,2 or more mics?
Forums
How many Mics for the guitar without getting problems with the phase. I've heard that some guys use mics with the off axis to the speaker/Cabinet or behind the Cabinet(?).Did anybody try that?

Tube Royer Ribbon Mic!
Forums
Yup. I saw it at NAMM. Uses a super duper tube that is out of print (Royer buys 'em for about $70 each). Mega specs, and I have forgotten all of them. It looked pretty cool, I mean warm, and damn, I forgot the model number too.
It's amazing how much you can see in 6 hours if you really try. And I had to schmooze some artists/endorsees too.
Shinspints in LA,

Who's miced a Didjeridoo?
Forums
What mic would you use to mic a didjeridoo? Where would you place the mic? The only mic I have, a Shure 58 just doesn't seem to cut it. Any insight on this would be helpful. Thanks.

60 million records with a Shure SM7($300) mic!
Forums
Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" was recorded by Bruce Sweiden through a Massenburg console and a Shure SM7 mic. Bruce said he wanted the sound of a dynamic mic specifically, and not a large condensor(Mix Mag 1997). This was a number one song, and was the Hottest! thing when I was in 3rd grade. To all my fellow gear junkies...when in doubt use your ears and experiment, not your wallet.
