Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone has used the Neumann PMV-70 mic preamp or the W495 EQ? If so how do you think they stack up to the Neve, API or Trident units? Or are they in that league at all?
Best Wishes, jules

Has any one tried out any these mic's yet ?
I plan on buying a pair of the KA-04 preamps and
a pair of the KR-2W capsules and a pair of
the KR-33a capsules.

Hi Gang,
I was at the Earthworks factory here in New Hampshire today and I walked out with a pair of the new QTC30 microphones.

These are very small diaphragm omnidirectional microphones with outstandningly flat response. The QTC30 is 5 dB quieter than the M30 or TC30k and has a 30kHz BW (+/- 1dB) vs. the 40kHz BW of the flagship QTC1 mics.

Hey guys,

Has anyone tried the TT or the A-48? There doesn't seem to be much discussion of these mics anywhere.

Has anyone ever used one of these? Or know how to make a german mic fit XLR?

Hi there! I have a pretty dumb question, but I gotta ask it. What is proper path between a mic and a recorder (assuming you are working with a compressor, a pre-amp, and a mixer). In what order to you plug things in? If you use aux sends on the mixer, do the mixers preamps get bi-passed? Help!
Thanks all!
Beau.

Hi guys,
I'm going to track a small quartet strings section for a pop song.
How should I mic them up? what mic? how many? And also should it be track all together or separate (violins, viola, and cello)?
How about some suggestions for a bigger section say 4 1st violins, 3 2nd violins, 3 violas, 2 cellos.

I see time after time when it comes to Micing a bass drum, some choose between a decent condenser or a high pressure (one that comes to mind is the AKG D112) dynamic mic. Some others are the Shure beta series. I know when eq is applied, it's usually curved or set around or about 100Hz. What's mostly used to get that deep thump on most recordings?

Hi you all,

I kinda new here, just use to hang out on Talk Tech. I knew this guy, he's offering me a Schoeps M221B, mint conditions, but he doesn't know how much to ask for it. I'd like to hear if you guys have done some tracking with that one, I never
got one to play with... just wondering if it might be a good aquisition... :D

Thanks in advance!
