How to make a fake SM57 sound good (video)
Forums
Hi guys and girls,
I just finished my video about a fake sm57 from wish.com
I was very surprised of what I discovered while doing it.
Who never thought what if when seeing an add for a sm57 under 30$ ?
Let me know what you thing, about the results, the video and production.
Thanks !

T47 vs SM81 vs KSM44 vs T12 vs SM57 (Acoustic guitar)
Forums
Hi guys !
Many of you know I worked on a microphone-parts.com T47 kit.
I received and built a T12 as well. Here is a video showing it with other mics on a guitar
My T12 has a very pronounced proximity effect, but I think it's a nice addition to my collection.. Still trying it on different sources ;)
Tell me what you think..

Hi microphone lovers! I wrote some articles and created sound clips for a bunch of microphones on Gear-Wiki. I thought I'd share the links as I hope this can be useful.
