Brauner Phanthera V level Problems. Help!

Your Avatar
Submitted by Zero.Cool on

Lately I've noticed that I have to use quite a lot of gain on my mic preamps to get a good level out of my Phanthera V.



I decided to use a 1 kHz sine wave to test the Phanthera against my AKG C414.



According to specs the Brauner has a higher sensitivity than the C414:



Brauner 33 mV/ Pa Cardiod



Alternative to the Brauner Valvet?

Haven't been here in a long while, had to bookmark it. I am sure everyone is still happily recording as am I. I am in position to finally move on a top shelf tube mic, I have everything else I CARE to own at the moment. I would like your experienced views as to which mic I might consider buying opposed to the Brauner.

I try to find a "perfect match" for voice-overs, narration, spoken word stuff in terms of choosing right mic with appropriate preamp. My choice is narrowed to those mics and preamps mentioned in title. Phantom C & GR ME1NV / Neum TLM49 & j.Hardy M1-or other way around ..? And unfortunatly I can't try those by myself.



Any help is more than welcome.

Anyone here used the Brauner VM-1?

I heard a VM-1 today, and I must say I was completely and utterly blown away. These mics are IMHO astonishingly good. I admit that there is a certain novelty value given that they have a completely different type of sound. One possible downside is that they have a very obvious sound of their own, so things might all sound a bit 'Braunerish'.



Special Edition Brauner Phantom

Anyone here got any ideas about this one? It's a cheaper limited edition of the Phantom C, but I wonder if it a lesser version. I'm seriously considering buying a Brauner, but I'm veering towards the Valvet or VM-1 (used of course ). In Europe the price is 1000 euro, but the Phantom C is 30% more expensive.

Hey guys, i'm in need of some help. I'm currently using a RODE nt1000 for EVERYTHING. it's gotta go. I'm about an inch away from buying an AT4060. It will be used for mainly rap vocals. I have never heard this mic, but it has been recommended to me by multiple professional engineers.



How does the Brauner Phantom C stack up in comparison to the AT4060?
