Ciao, Guitar Center. Bear in mind that I was forward with my requirements — basic, entry-level podcasting, and nothing fancy or close to top quality. Some of the models on the list were nothing special — like the Behringer C-1 Studio Condenser — but I'm not going on tour, guys. I just need to record a friggin' podcast. And it's the only nearby music store in the 'burg open on Sunday. Or consider your classic Coles out of Great Britain.
The new David Royer ribbons out of the United States. The West German classic Beyer and any antique or other ribbons you find.
This will give you 2 of every flavor kind of microphone known to the recording industry. You'll probably never part with them. Treat them nicely and gently. Treat them better than you would treat your wife or girlfriend.
If you have an erection lasting more than four hours, call your doctor. Remy Ann David. RemyRAD wrote What do you call him RemyRAD I just got a chance to try out the new BLUE Woodpecker microphone, which is a phantom powered ribbon microphone go figure and if you get the chance listen to one.
I think you will be amazed. It maybe the new classic ribbon microphone. Good low end, not tubby, beautiful midrange and a shimmering hi end. As you can tell I was pretty impressed. No, I think you just call him to brag. Thomas W. I don't know of any place that will let you take microphones home to test them or even return microphones.
I think this is the jangling car keys he mentioned somewhere. Jangle the keys in front of the mic. If its clear sounding your good to go. If its muffled or distorted, pass on the mic. Did I get that one right Harvey? Originally posted by Oldone I think this is the jangling car keys he mentioned somewhere.
David R. Well, this doesn't work for singers, they never seem to be able to find a key You guys should write laffy taffy jokes. Originally posted by jbuntz You guys should write laffy taffy jokes.
Harvey Gerst. Part 2. Remember in the last section, I told you to make a note of the dB number along side the channel slider on the post-it sheet for each mic, or in your notepad?
Well, here's where we use that number. Plug in the first mic, and set the channel fader to that number. Adjust the headphone level or the mixer's master level to a comfortable volume and listen to the sound. Listen to what? First of all, point the mic into the room, and listen to the room noises in the store, people talking in the distance, the sounds of fans or air conditioning, the ambient room noise.
Does it sound different to you than listening without the headphones? What's different about it? Notice any hollow sounds, like you're in a tunnel? Those sounds are mid range peaks.
Any rumbling? You know what that is. Anything sound overly bright and "VERY detailed"? Those are probably high frequency peaks. Turn the mic around and talk into it from around 12" away, holding it at eye level. It may not display this or other websites correctly. You should upgrade or use an alternative browser. Trying out mics at Guitar Center? Thread starter Zeppelin Start date Feb 2, Zeppelin Banana Co. Hey I've never tried mics out at guitar center and I had a few questions: First of all, do all guitar centers have this capability to try mics out?
I go to the one in Boston, which is a pretty large store, but I've never seen any room where you can test out the mics. Secondly, what should I be doing to test the mic out in the best fashion? Speaking, singing? I'm sure someone will direct me to a thread talking about this already but I couldn't find it on my own. Any help appreciated. Massive Master www. Just make sure you check it in at the door John Scrip - www.
If you go early in the morning on a week day you will have the whole place to yourself. Tell the sales guy that you are going to buy a mic and you would like to test them out.
