Thanks to democrats everything is a bad investment

Kinda unrelated to the video but how do you feel after changing from ATC to PMC now?

I have the WA8000 - Summit Audio 2ba - WA1b. This chain works perfect for Rappers And Singers… Sounds high end without the price tag …. My interface is SSL12

I have one sub and only use it when it's necessary. I think people believe it's suppose to be on full blast all the time or while mixing. It's a must for me because, it clarifies the really low frequencies that can't be heard but felt. I like Bobby Owsinski saying, "Come On People It's Not Rocket Science". As always, with Practice, Patience and Determination, Your Experience will improve over time.

Question what should your output be on the neve or bae 1073 to get the best out your preamp anyone know should it be at 🕛 or maxed out ?

Do you have any thoughts on Ferrofish? a32 pro specifically? I hear good things about ferrofish but it’s hard to find any comparisons or opinions vs other gear

BAM!!!! big ass tube tech on the desk with what looks like a neve channel strip / interface. Nice raw naked type setup ..not much in the way

I implore you all to read a book and do your own research. This guy is saying get stereo subs for a mono signal. Smh

Subs will destroy your mixes if you don't know what you're doing. It's best to get an 8" monitor instead, but in 2024 technology has come a long way and now we have subs and monitors with DSP, which are a real game changer (Neumann, Genelec, Hedd, etc)

Before i watch, i totally agree from the headline

Did you try 'AES3' instead of 'S/PDIF' in the DO1/2 strip of the Outputs tab in Lyra2? Dang I am planning to get PMC 6-2, and it doesn't work perfectly?

I like your Videos Straight to the Point. what i Learned in my 15 years recording journey. a Beginner will focus more on Plugs, hardware, youtube reviews. Intermediate will focus less on all these. A Pro will focus on More Technique, Ears , Proper Gain staging, Good Preamp . a 251 in hands of Beginner may not yield best results but Shure SM7b in hands of Pro will make Big Difference. But Agree with you Shure SM7B is bullet Proof Mic even in Bad Room. Thanks for your Honest review.. UA-cam is full of Fake Reviewers for their benefits.

More important than all that is having good ears to reference your system to learn it, and sub placement. I jus know majority ppl place their sub wrong. More than likely under their desk and next to them, with no shock abservers under it. Bass needs room to travel. Another important aspect is rather the sub is sealed or ported..

I’m a blind audio engineer who is just getting started I’m currently using the Calli audio I N5 with the WS 12 subwoofer

I think it is important to mention measurements when talking about integrating a sub. After working live event audio i learned about software like smaart and open sound meter. Worked wonders on my studio. Being able to align phase between sub and mains is essential. Aswell as creating a nice crossover curve. Rew aswell for understanding how your room sounds. The waterfall curve was mindblowing to me.

hello man what are your bass traps if you have any ??? where can i find a good bass trap one that's effective please ???

Bass Management, DSP Subs and a decent room can be awesome. Bass isn't directional and the DSP program with your total system should guide you as to where to put and how to use your sub properly. A good sub only plays the program content that's in your content and nothing else and certainly doesn't create any unwanted frequencies.

Hey! Love this vid. Personally going thru a bit of a rut myself and i'm just tryna take it one step at a time. I've been trying to find you on ig! Also would love to hear some of your work and songs you've done too!

I have to share that I had a poor experience with warm audio’s repairs. They didn’t fix my microphone’s problem and then after having to send it in to them the second time, they didn’t send it back to me with a signature request. My mic got stolen and then they said they weren’t liable. Luckily I have renter’s insurance that covered me, but it didn’t cover the full cost of the mic and the replacement tube and all the money I spent on shipping costs. I’d recommend buying through Sweetwater. I’ve heard they’re a lot better when it comes to customer service. Even so, it’s very hard for me to recommend getting warm audio gear. I’ve had the wa-273 preamps (you can feel that the build quality isn’t there) and the wa-47 mic. The mic feels built well, but even then I had crazy noise coming from it. Great review though. On a budget, I get why warm audio is an option. Honestly though, if you can save or finance a better quality mic, you’ll be spending so much less in the long run. Ended up getting the Telefunken TF-47. It sounds better. It’s built way better and I trust the brand will take care of me if anything fails.

Barefoot Microstack 45 does it best as far as monitor/sub combos goes

Thank you Mr Rayne That is a very instructive and interesting topic you touched on now... i v got an apollo x4 and a pair of hs7 ??? i love them cause i got accustomed to it The other day i was watching another well famous producer 's content on yt and i swear to god he was coming at this specific pair of speakers telling people how bad they were and how one shouldn't even consider buying them , "cause he don't want us making the same mistake as him" And i find it very curious that he was telling us how bad they were , is precisely how to take advantage of them speakers just how you just explained or demonstrated if i dare on this episode... From my gut i feel you are the truth because all of your saying is what i feel and how i envision sound now that i think about it ,never really took the time to understand it for myself but hearing you thinking about it make me realize how much we re on the same page , i must not be on your level of expertise but i can feel everything that you saying because you prove your point by making logical statements instead of saying oh man those are trash without even mentionning what should one shoot for ... i don't know about others but what i m gonna do from now on is pairing my hs 7 with my x4 and just produce this way and i m shure it will pay/// i thank you from the bottom of my heart just for beeing you (i just shot you an email) take care

I had this mic and loved it. When it worked. After 2 replacements i just couldn’t do it anymore. Not gonna lie though. This vid just made me think of giving another try

There are many paths to the same place.

That sucks you were still on a waitlist for the price increase. If you need a GC Pro rep to get you past the waitlists faster, let me know. I can introduce you to my guy. He told me he had access to 3 C800s in October and I bought one immediately. It shipped out in 24 hours and the price went up 2 days after I got the mic.

i am really wondering if there is a difference between the bae mpl 500 version without eq and the actual bae 1073 strip with eq. that low mid dense resonance that i loved opposed to the ams, will it be present with the mpl version? what do you think? my thought that leads me to the question is that the topology in combination with the eq circuit may also have contribution to the density.

not gonna lie, i tried a real CL1B on some vocals and compared it to some vocals i ran through a dbx 560 and i preferred the sound on the 560

We appreciate you bro .. thank you! 🙏🏾🙏🏾

No converters can make up for aliasing and viceversa though, you need to get rid of both or you'll never sound truly analog.

I have this mic 2 years now.its sound good I never dreamed about Sony c800.because I plug it into WA-73 EQ. It sound good and I love it.and Sony just sound harsh and too bright.if you let wa 8000 warmed up you will no the power of this microphone 🎤.

Apollos paired with Dangerous music D-Box+ and AD+ converter works great for me !!! Took a long time to figure out.

Nice one R ! Props for the knowledge / heads-up. Thanks for sharing.

I know it doesn't matter what kind of Microphone it is, as long as it sounds good with the source material. $5000 price increase?!?!? They must be high as hell!!! LOL. Granted quality cost money but, you can get a way better setup with that $15000. I'd rather Build a Modded Microphone that will be way cheaper and more versatile than that. Not gonna lie, if I had lots of money it would be in my mic locker as well. Thanks for the Video.

Sooo many forget that those mics where built in a time when analog tape was still around, and hiting tape compression with that extra topend and then being compressed is what contributed to the so called “ silky “ sound. Other mics in that category be AKG c12 or ELAM 251…

A cheap microphone with all that great processing gear will sound just as good as that other microphone. A good mic does not need to cost $15,000. You’re crazy. Now a good song, different story.

WHAT !!!!!!!!! We should PUT THEM OUT OF THERE BUSINESS for even trying to sell the public that preposterous amount of money for a microphone. You’re worse than the Democratic Party.

the NEUMANN NDH 30 is my stethoscope.

Idk I’ve never really liked the 87 on vocals. Great on instruments but I’d rather have a 47 or a 67 for vocals.

The RME is stellar! if you record regularly or want to monitor in the highest quality (speakers and headphones), I'd say you need one. This AD/DA conversion is way better than what you get with interfaces. And I mean in comparison with high level interfaces, not the cheaper ones!

I had a Sony C800 G in 2017 used it for years, it didn't work on a lot of vocals-it's a good mic ( worth about 5K in reality)-but brings out bad qualities in bad voices quickly. I ended up selling it.

A mic only lasting 2 weeks is crazy

Wa8000 vs tlm 103 as a daily driver ? (Same price bracket)

I remember I was shopping for interfaces and the lady highly recommended RME - we’re talking more than a decade ago. I had never used RME before and even though I returned it due lack of sufficient I/Os and whatnot, I’ll never forget how I felt when I heard the difference in sound quality. I now have Lynx Aurora N, I upgraded my lynx Hilo to the 2 and I also have a Prism Titan for my synths and vocal chain. Even though I’ll never go back to other interfaces like the Antelope Audio, Burl, Apogee or Motu, RME is definitely something I wouldn’t mind considering.

The SM7B is a mic most people should by at any stage of their recording journey It is versatile and sounds great on vocals and guitars amongst other instruments It's affordable, handles alot spl, is readily available and not as prone to room acoustic inadequacies as many other studio condensers. A no brainer, plus if was good enough for MJ then that should be good enough for many

bro i got a little red monster for 200 bucks used and it sounds real nice, i propose this 1) same vocal room , cut the vocal with the warm with the sonny however thencut the vocal with 5 little red monsters placed next to each other and just bus them all down threw the console to one track to tape just like the other 2 mics are cutting to tape / its going to be i spent 2 grand and got 5 multi pattern tube condenser mics with external phantom power control box-s and combined them all together in my room to cut my vocal track because i have five great mics five channels 5 EQ-s and 5 nice tube compressors all running mixing down to get bussed down to one vocal track ,. im taking my advantages in mic placement stacking tracks having more capsules picking up more sound and again really using the dam recording console no rule says i cant put up 10 mics and bus them down to one track ,. its going to be what sounds best ,.... and then compare that to the Sonny ,. the 2 grand sound vs the 15 grand sound ,. and then U have 5 killer mics for you studio for 2K mix them in with sum ribbon mics sum dynamic mics and your good to record all the instruments as well,, if your a high end studio and U have record companies top artists coming to see you and your making over 1- grand per day recording ,. then that puts u in the ball game to buy this 15k mic,.. other then that your going to have to make do with at best a 3 grand mic on the vocals the thing is you can do magic with a console a eq out board gear mic placement the room ect ect a mic can be more like a flavor ,. so,.. any way use what ever works ,. if it cost a bunch of money and you feel it performs well, then what,, its a worth wile investment ,. its just with the price of used audio gear so rock bottom these days you can get the 1,500 dollar older mics now for 300 bucks ,. a 3k mic used maybe can be had for 650 bucks ,. your better off taking 15 grand and out fitting your self with all the best mics in the world buying them up used and having all these different sound colors and pallets to play with would be more along the line of what i was saying ,. cheers

I don’t know…i find that i need to triangulate to make all the right decisions. My room is fully treated but square so i have bass modes. So i use vsx headphones to get proper sub bass monitoring. When i mix high frequencies on headphones i find that everything sounds good. My Neumann kh150 speakers reveal much more in the midrange as well as mix depth. Maybe some ppl can learn to hear this but i certainly have found that it’s impossible to make eq decisions on a vocal with headphones, as well as proper volume balance and reverb decisions. Headphones are good for listening to individual details. My other pair is the hd600. Never tried super high end

I have Cranborne Audio R8 and it has excellent converters. The icing on the cake is the Camden Pre amp with the Mojo circuit

I'm confused as to why this video title mentions a U87 (Neumann), but the video is appears to be about the C100. 🤔 It kept my attention though, so, that's a positive thing!

you is so right and I agree

What do you think of the u67ai ?

really good video thanks for sharing all this insight, its great to get this information from someone that actually HAS experience with the sony c800g! I'd like your opinion for a male voice that's not that deep, someone like a male alto....would you recommend the WA8000? I only ask because you said that the 800g can be specific to what voices it caters to, and I gather since it's so bright it would cater to low baratone voices better than an alto.....but what about the WA?
