I remember the first time I heard the AEA R84, which is a ribbon microphone with a figure eight pattern. Ted Curtis took me and Chris Graffignino of AudioInstruction.com on a tour of Upstairs Studios in Oklahoma City. JUMP TO REVIEW
Do you like recording channels? A recording channel to me contains a mic pre, a compressor section and an equalizer section. As part of Ted Fletcher's resurgence as an audio designer and manufacturer, tfpro brought out the P10, which is also designated as the Mighty Twin. It's a dual recording channel. It features extensive controls (somewhat over the top at times), an effects loop for each channel and switchable stereo linkage for the compressor section. JUMP TO REVIEW
OK, it's come to this. One of my friends went for the special at Guitar Center where you get an MXL 990, an MXL 991 and an M-Audio Audio Buddy mic preamp for around $100. Normally, you can get the MXL 990 and 991 combo for about the same price sans the Audio Buddy at most MXL dealers. JUMP TO REVIEW
I own an Oktava MK319, which is a large diaphragm made in Russia condenser microphone. It's laid around without getting use for a long time. I bought it back in my bedroom recording days. It just did not seem to give me satisfactory results on anything. JUMP TO REVIEW
One of my fave online activities is looking for buzz on new products. Sometimes, I create buzz. Today, I humbly submit to you that sE deserves a decent amount of buzz for its R1 Ribbon microphone. JUMP TO REVIEW
